モロッコのアル・アカワイン大学を対象に、PV発電と雨水収集システムを組み合わせたグリーン水素生成により、年間排出量8,006tCO2eを約36%削減できる可能性を示した。導入規模は2,539kWpのPVと1,580m3/年の雨水収集で、年間79,391kgの水素を生成し、1.15GWhの電力を供給する。投資回収期間は約7年と試算され、長期的な経済性も確認された。
English
This study explores the integration of a photovoltaic plant and rainwater harvesting system for green hydrogen production at Al Akhawayn University in Morocco. The proposed system, with a 2,539 kWp PV plant and 1,580 m³/year rainwater harvesting, can produce 79,391 kgH₂ annually, converting to 1.15 GWh of electricity for heating. This would reduce the university's carbon footprint from 8,006 tCO₂e to 5,108 tCO₂e, a 36% reduction, with a payback period of 7 years.

📄 Abstract（原文）
Abstract. Sustainability has become the most talked-about and discussed topic everywhere in the world. Each country, including Morocco, is now pushing for a greener and more sustainable future with the aim of reducing its dependence on fossil fuels and using renewable energies and green hydrogen as a viable option. The authors in this paper explore the potential for reducing the carbon footprint of Al Akhawayn University in Ifrane (AUI) by implementing an integrated sustainable system that comprises a photovoltaic (PV) plant and a rainwater harvesting system for generating green hydrogen. AUI emits approximately a total amount of 8,006 tCO2e per year, according to the analysis of the university’s energy profile. Much of the energy that the university uses is for water, space heating, and other services, which come directly from the national utility grid as well as other fossil fuels. The findings of the study show that by implementing the PV plant (with an installed capacity of 2,539 kWp, corresponding to a yearly energy production of 3.97 GWh) and a rainwater harvesting system (with a collected capacity of 1,580 m3 per year, corresponding to 132 m3 per month), an approximate amount of 79,391 kgH2 will be produced. This amount of hydrogen is then converted into electricity with a resulting amount of 1.15 GWh annually, to be further used in heating applications during peak periods. This is expected to reduce AUI’s carbon footprint to 5,108 tCO2e, reflecting a total reduction of roughly 36%. The economic feasibility analysis shows that this project will yield an estimated payback period of 7 years, reflecting long-term benefits for the university.
