Optimal day-ahead dispatch of an alkaline electrolyser system concerning thermal-electric properties and state-transitional dynamics

Yi Zheng et al.

Summary: In this paper, a comprehensive model for alkaline electrolyser is developed to describe its dynamic behavior, and the optimal dispatch of an electrolyser based on a real-world system is studied using this model. The results show that the model can effectively capture the coupling between thermal-electric dynamics and on-off performance of an electrolyser, and the flexible operation strategy can significantly increase revenues.

Non-stoichiometric methanation as strategy to overcome the limitations of green hydrogen injection into the natural gas grid

Luis M. M. Romeo et al.

Summary: This study evaluates the influence of nonstoichiometric methanation under different H/C ratios on the limitations presented by pure hydrogen injection. It suggests that non-stoichiometric methanation could be an alternative to increase hydrogen injection in the gas network, facilitating the coupling of the gas and electricity sectors.

High-temperature thermal storage in combined heat and power plants

Mei Gong et al.

Summary: This paper studies the potential and benefits of integrating a high-temperature thermal storage system into a biomass-fueled CHP plant. Energy and exergy analysis shows that the integrated system has only minor differences compared to the original system. Individual CHP companies can benefit from fuel savings and increased flexibility towards customer demands. The integrated system can increase the storage capacity of the national electric grid and help phase out nuclear power.

Global-local analysis of cost-optimal onshore wind turbine configurations considering wind classes and hub heights

Rasul Satymov et al.

Summary: This study provides a more rigorous and novel methodology to estimate wind electricity yield, considering factors such as wind classes, hub height related capital expenditures, and limitations induced by extreme wind gusts. The results show that there exists an optimal hub height for cost-effective electricity generation, and exceeding this height does not justify the increase in capital expenditures. Additionally, turbines of different wind classes exhibit variations in full load hours and hourly generation profiles.

Co-gasification of refuse-derived fuels and bituminous coal with oxygen/steam blend to hydrogen rich gas

Adam Smolinski et al.

Summary: The paper explores the application of the gasification technology of refuse-derived fuels (RDF) with bituminous coal in hydrogen production and circular economy development. The research findings indicate that an increase in the proportion of RDF in the fuel blend leads to a decrease in the total gas yield and hydrogen yield. RDF2, with a higher calcium concentration, exhibits a higher H2 yield during co-gasification with coal.

Electrification of the industrial sector in 100% renewable energy scenarios

Peter Sorknaes et al.

Summary: Future renewable energy systems with high shares of variable renewable energy production require technologies and measures to balance production fluctuations, such as electricity storage, energy demand adaptation, and sector coupling. This study evaluates the role of industry electrification in different renewable energy system scenarios and finds that prioritizing direct electrification of industrial process heat demand is preferable.

Analysis of the integrated system of electrolysis and methanation units for the production of synthetic natural gas (SNG)

Daria Katla et al.

Summary: This paper analyzes the power to gas installation as a solution for storing excess electricity from renewable sources, with integrated electrolysis, hydrogen production and storage, SNG production, and biomass gasification for carbon feedstock. The simulation model in Aspen Plus is used to determine efficiency in different hydrogen availability states. Calculations show efficiency ranging from 43.04% - 68.77% for H-2 production from RES cases and 20.56% - 43.80% without additional hydrogen production.
