In a previous work it has been demonstrated that solar radiation intercepted by an unconventional airship is sufficient for all energetic needs for civil uses, namely broadcasting and telecommunications. This article analyses the energetic feasibility of an airship, named PSICHE (acronym for ‘photovoltaic stratospheric isle for conversion in hydrogen as energy vector’). It demonstrates the economic and industrial feasibility of high altitude production of electrolytic hydrogen fed by a photovoltaic plant. The most important aspects connected with high quote and hydrogen and oxygen production are discussed. The advantages of this kind of hydrogen production are presented together with the environmental benefits of the system.
