1. A solar energy power supply system, comprising at least:

  • a solar battery;

    an electrolyte supply device to provide an electrolyte;

    an electrolyte recycling device which includes a cooler and a first recycling tubing;

    a hydrogen recycling device which includes a container, a second check valve and a filter;

    a fuel cell which includes a third check valve, a first solenoid valve and a second recycling tubing;

    a heating device which includes an automatic igniter, a gas nozzle and a second solenoid valve;

    a power management device which includes a controller, a storage battery, a DC socket and an AC socket;

    the controller charging the storage battery with electric current generated by the solar battery and the fuel cell through a circuit, the storage battery delivering the stored electric power through the circuit to the controller to supply AC and DC power to the AC socket and the DC socket, the controller controlling power ON/OFF of the first and second solenoid valves and the automatic igniter through three different circuits; and

    at least four sets of tubing bridging the electrolyte supply device and the solar battery, the electrolyte recycling device and the solar battery, the hydrogen recycling device and the electrolyte recycling device, and the fuel cell, the hydrogen recycling device and the heating device respectively;

    wherein electric power generation is accomplished by first injecting the electrolyte from the electrolyte supply device into the solar battery through the tubing, the solar battery receiving either light or heat to generate the electric power and produce water vapor and hydrogen gas, the water vapor being sent to the electrolyte recycling device through the tubing to be cooled by the cooler to become liquid water which is sent to the solar battery through the first recycling tubing of the electrolyte recycling device to be recycled and reused, the hydrogen gas being sent to the hydrogen recycling device through the tubing to be recycled;

    when the light or heat is not available the recycled hydrogen gas is selectively delivered through the tubing to either the fuel cell or the heating device to produce heat to heat the solar battery to generate the electric power continuously, electric current generated by the solar battery and the fuel cell being controlled by the power management device to comply with electric power specification for final usage.
