The introduction of Power-to-Gas systems that actively use renewable energy to produce hydrogen is expected to expand. To achieve this, there is an urgent need to reduce the unit cost of hydrogen production. It is necessary to operate the system under the optimal operation strategy while forecasting the ever-changing spot price and solar power generation. Currently, the method of sequentially deriving and controlling operational measures is computationally burdensome. In this paper, we report the effectiveness of a simple control rule derived by analyzing the annual optimal operation strategy with the technique of decision tree derived for the purpose of cost minimization.
