This study simulates the operation of an isolated power system by integrating wind, solar, and hydrogen production, utilizing real-time weather data to explore the wind–solar capacity ratio for maximizing the operational hours of hydrogen electrolysers. . As of 2024, China was responsible for 64 percent of the world's utility-scale solar and wind construction, with 339 gigawatt hours of renewable energy infrastructure in the works, even though it only has around 17 percent of the planet's population. Utility-scale solar power capacity in China reached more than 880 gigawatts (GW) in 2024, according to China's National Energy Administration. That's more than half of global additions that year, and it brings total installed capacity to 1. Chinese renewable generation reached 366. . Then, the technical, policy and economic (i.
