Deep-Learning-Based Time-Series Forecasting of Hydrogen Production in a Membraneless Alkaline Water Electrolyzer: A Comparative Analysis of LSTM and GRU Models
Hydrogen production is gaining increasing importance as a key component of the transition toward carbon-neutral energy systems. In this study, the prediction of hydrogen generation in membraneless alkaline water electrolyzers (MAWEs) is investigated using deep-learning-based time-series modeling. A single-input modeling framework is adopted, where only the system current is used as the input variable. Experimental current signals obtained from long-duration tests conducted at electrolyte concentrations between 5 and 35 g KOH (7200 s per experiment) are employed as the model inputs, while mass-based hydrogen production (in grams) is used as the output variable. Two recurrent neural network architectures, namely Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU), are implemented, and their predictive performance is comparatively evaluated using RMSE, MAE, and R2 metrics. In addition to deep learning models, classical approaches including Linear Regression, ARIMA, and Naïve Forecast are also considered for comparison. The results show that both models are capable of accurately reproducing the hydrogen-production dynamics across the entire concentration range. In particular, the prediction accuracy improves notably at medium and high electrolyte concentrations, where the coefficient of determination (R2) approaches 0.98. The residual distributions remain narrow and symmetric around zero, indicating the absence of systematic estimation bias. The results also show that classical models can achieve comparable performance under stable operating conditions, while deep learning models provide advantages in capturing nonlinear and dynamic behavior. While LSTM and GRU exhibit comparable accuracy, each architecture provides complementary advantages under different operating conditions. These findings indicate that deep-learning-based time-series modeling constitutes a lightweight and reliable framework for prediction and control applications in MAWE systems. Overall, this study demonstrates the applicability of data-driven models for the dynamic characterization of membraneless water electrolysis.
