Popis: Voltage fluctuations in energy input not only impact the overall hydrogen production efficiency and stability of Proton Exchange Membrane Water Electrolysis (PEMWE) systems but also pose significant challenges to the long-term service life of individual components. This study focuses on the key component − bipolar plates and investigates the response behavior of platinum-coated titanium bipolar plates under simulated fluctuating voltage conditions. By integrating surface phase analysis and electrochemical testing results, this research elucidates the response characteristics of the bipolar plates to different voltage waveforms and frequencies. And the findings hold substantial significance for the upstream energy control in hydrogen production through water electrolysis.
