Can energy storage make off-grid photovoltaic hydrogen production system more economical?

Frontiers of Engineering Management doi: 10.1007/s42524-022-0245-x

Abstract: Under the ambitious goal of carbon neutralization, photovoltaic (PV)-driven electrolytic hydrogen (PVEH) production is emerging as a promising approach to reduce carbon emission. Considering the intermittence and variability of PV power generation, the deployment of battery energy storage can smoothen the power output. However, the investment cost of battery energy storage is pertinent to non-negligible expenses. Thus, the installation of energy-storage equipment in a PVEH system is a complex trade-off problem. The primary goals of this study are to compare the engineering economics of PVEH systems with and without energy storage, and to explore time nodes when the cost of the former scenario can compete with the latter by factoring the technology learning curve. The levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH) is a widely used economic indicator. Represented by seven areas in seven regions of China, results show that the LCOH with and without energy storage is approximately 22.23 and 20.59 yuan/kg in 2020, respectively. In addition, as technology costs drop, the LCOH of a PVEH system with energy storage will be less than that without energy storage in 2030.

Gan Ziheng

Strategic Study of CAE 2007, Volume 9, Issue 2, Pages 5-11

Abstract:

As predicted,the global economy is stepping into a so called "biological economy" by 2020, which can be explained as economy mainly dominated by biological technologies. The essay discusses the proposition, definition, classification and characteristic of biological economy, also, the importance of positive view of happiness in a biological economy condition and the reason for emphasizing people's happiness achieving,and the definition of happiness philosophy. It also discusses which views of happiness should be recommended and how to practice a positive view of happiness in the scientific and technological circle in China.
