A water intrusion mitigation device for use in enclosures housing electric components and equipment that are sensitive to humidity includes a thermoelectric cooler and a water electrolyzer. The thermoelectric cooler has two sides: a first side that is configured to be heated with the application of an electric current and a second side that is configured to cooled with the application of an electric current. The water electrolyzer is a proton exchange membrane that is in thermal communication with the second side of the thermoelectric cooler.

An inner case of an electrolysis system houses therein an electrolysis stack. An intermediate case encloses the inner case from outside. An outer case encloses the intermediate case from outside. A method of operating the electrolysis system includes a vacuum step, a heat storage step, and an electrolysis starting step. In the vacuum step, air in a vacuum space formed between the intermediate case and the outer case is discharged. In the heat storage step, a heating fluid is supplied to a heat storage space formed between the inner case and the intermediate case.
