5.1 Using Hydrogen to Produce
Electricity as a Demonstration
Large-scale wind power hydrogen production
projects can be considered. On the one hand, the wind
power hydrogen production project includes three
subsystems: electrolytic hydrogen production, high-
voltage hydrogen storage and fuel cell power
generation. It can be implemented in various modes
such as “electricity-hydrogen-electricity” and
“electric-hydrogen-use”. However, the overall
conversion efficiency of the "electric-hydrogen-
electric" mode is low, and the cost of the fuel cell
power generation equipment is high, so it's not
available to promote and apply in large-scale. On the
other hand, the cost of producing hydrogen from wind
power is much better than wind power connected to
the grid. The difference in technology and cost is very
large, especially in manufacturing costs. When wind
power is connected to the grid, it not only needs to
meet strict technical specifications, but also requires
additional phase control equipment, which costs
about 50% of a wind turbine. For example, the current
price of a 1000kW wind turbine is about 800~10
million yuan/unit. If the wind turbine only to produce
hydrogen, its cost is about 300~5 million yuan/unit,
and there is still room for decease the cost. The
demonstration project could focus on offshore wind
power. The demonstration of wind power hydrogen
production could use the surplus power (excessive
power exceeding the national regulations) of offshore
wind power at a lower price (such as 0.2 yuan or
below).
5.2 Expand “X”
The extension of X does not only contain chemicals
such as methane and methanol. It that can be
converted into various forms such as heat. It is
possible to consider the construction of all-electricity
parks, schools, factories and communities to improve
the replacement of fossil energy by coal, oil and gas.
Expand the type and scale of terminal energy
consumption. Based on the traditional electricity to
heat and heat storage projects, learning the example
of Tokyo Electric Power, it can be considered that
provide efficient energy solutions in the super high-
rise buildings, large residential areas, key industrial
parks to improve the value of grid service products.
5.3 Targeted Technical Research
The Targeted technical research can be the robust
design and operation optimization of multi-type
energy product systems based on renewable
energy/surplus power, as well as the design of
modular demonstration devices for PTX systems
which are suitable for different application scenarios,
including hydrogen integrated energy system
integration technology and PTX energy router
technology.
