    Abstract

    Energy transition offers a wide range of benefits, including the potential to confront the recent energy crisis. Green hydrogen is a fast-developing clean energy source due to its low carbon emission in the atmosphere, promoting, thus, not only significant economic growth, but also independence from fossil fuels. Raising the public's awareness about renewable energy sources can lead to social acceptance and the rise of green practices, leading to the assimilation of such practices into everyday occurrences. To increase these practices and educate both students and the public about renewable energy, the role of educational establishments is considered essential. An effective tool to spread awareness and provide insight about green hydrogen is through specialized simulation software. In this paper, an interactive dashboard is realized to examine, to a certain extent, how a hybrid battery-hydrogen storage system operates and satisfies different energy needs, using photovoltaics, water electrolysis and fuel cells, implemented using Microsoft Excel® and its integrated tools. By processing a sample of load data originated from a hotel located in Heraklion, Greece and some user-defined variables, the software calculates hourly values including hydrogen and thermal production in an annual basis.
