Renewables intermittency is the main challenge in Green H2 and Power-To-X plants. How to manage variability on energy sources, producing truly green H2 while fulfilling H2 demand variability from consumers ? Well, not an easy task. How to couple the fast electron side with the rigid molecule side in Power-To-X applications? Intelligent Energy Management is a must - forecasting of renewables, coupled with real-time energy market interaction and storage use optimization helps balance variability and sustain profitable operations with potential for added profits via delivery of ancillary services at premium price. Even more so for Power-To-X where smart Energy Management allows to couple the slow and rigid conversion units, like the Haber–Bosch process, with the Green H2 production variability, minimizing impact of intermittency on equipment maintenance, catalyzers life and operation costs Learn more about intelligent OPTIMAX for Green H2/Power-To-X: https://lnkd.in/dMEbRQ5e

1/ New research @UniLUT https://lnkd.in/dDb9k-ZR  demonstrates that a #100RE system benefits strongly from smart charging of electric vehicles (EVs), vehicle-to-grid (V2G) functionality, and flexibility of electrolysers. The insights have been obtained on the case of #Japan. 2/ Research on #100RE of #Japan in 1-h & 9-regions resolution used as basis for EVs & electrolyser flexibility investigation. https://lnkd.in/dn_Te3xZ The #Japan energy system will be largely based on a wind-solar resource mix as for most countries of the Northern hemisphere. 3/ Literature review: Concept of smart charging of EVs & V2G was introduced in 2000s and investigated in various studies. Systematic analyses in sector-coupled systems are rather rare, due to lack of scenario analyses, limited model description, or not yet included functionality. 4/ Methods: LUT Energy System Transition Model (LUT-ESTM) was expanded for smart charging of EVs & V2G functionality for expanding flexibility in #PtXeconomy analyses. https://lnkd.in/dwWWwzvD  LUT-ESTM is one in two most used tools for #100RE studies https://lnkd.in/dn8W_73i 5/ Smart charging & V2G leads to 35% less utility-scale electricity storage demand. Electrolysers alone can reduce the battery demand by 33%. All 3 flexibility options together can reduce the battery capacity by 55%. 6/ Interestingly, thermal energy storage (TES) also benefits from EVs flexibility by 20-25% capacity reduction, also flexible electrolysers reduce the TES by 45%. All 3 flexibility options together can reduce TES capacity demand by up to 60%. 7/ Impact of low-cost flexibility on the supply structure leads to higher shares of low-cost renewable electricity & reduced higher cost renewables, such as geothermal (-72%), bioenergy (-51%), offshore wind (-5%) – for the case of #Japan. 8/ Levelised cost of storage (LCOS) decline by 8% due to smart charging & 15% with both EVs flexibility options. Electrolyser flexibility alone can reduce LCOS by 20%. All 3 flexibility options can reduce the LCOE by up to 26%. Total energy system cost can decline by up to 8%. 9/ Open question remains for the transaction costs/ price of V2G services. For 10 €/MWh more than 50% of the V2G storage throughput potential remains in the market and reaches 30 TWh. Even for 30-50 €/MWh 8-18 TWh throughput remains. V2G is a quite valuable flexibility option. 10/ Conclusions: New demand response flexibility (smart charging, V2G, electrolysers) can reduce system cost by 8%, reduce curtailment & storage capacities, enable more low-cost renewables. Remuneration of this flexibility is due to lower cost electricity, requires revenues (V2G).

Hitachi Energy is seriously stepping up in the energy game with a massive $1.5 billion investment aimed at boosting transformer production. This investment is a big play in the global electrification effort, essential for integrating renewable sources and electrifying our way to a greener future! By 2027, we'll see a significant increase in Hitachi Energy’s transformer production capacity, building on a whopping $3 billion investment from October 2023. Finland is getting a new transformer factory in the Vaasa region with a $180 million investment, set to kick off operations by 2027—covering a massive 30,000 square meters! Steve McKinney, the big boss of Hitachi Energy’s transformer business in North America, says they’re all about optimizing their manufacturing game both globally and locally. With ongoing expansions in South Boston, Virginia, Jefferson City, Missouri, and Bland, Virginia, and more projects on the horizon, they’re not slowing down! Hitachi Energy is not playing around—they're the biggest in the biz with the largest installed base, diverse product range, and a massive global footprint with over 60 factories and service centers. According to US National Renewable Energy Laboratory, we might need to boost distribution transformer capacity by a huge 160–260% by 2050 to keep up with energy demands across various sectors. #energy #utilities
