Abstract

A hydrogen production system comprises a hydrogen production facility comprising electrolyzer units, a controller in communication with the hydrogen production facility, and memory having instructions stored therein executable by the controller to operate the hydrogen production facility, the instructions comprising receiving an instruction signal indicating an available power level, determining availability states of electrolyzer units in the hydrogen production facility to determine a number of available electrolyzer units, determining an available load at which each of the available electrolyzer units is capable of operating relative to a base load, determining a base group of available electrolyzer units having available loads available to consume less than the available power level, determining a trim group of available electrolyzer units to consume any remaining power of the available power level not consumed by the base group of available electrolyzer units, and operating electrolyzer units to produce hydrogen.
