Modelling Hydrogen in Power Systems: Optimisation for Investment and Operational Models

The energy transition is one of the major challenges of the 21st century, impacting the way energy is generated, conserved and consumed. Energy generation becomes more and more decentralised, intermittency and fluctuations suddenly are becoming topics of interest within day-to-day life and energy system operators are facing many new obstacles...

The effect of stacking sequence and circumferential ply drop locations on the mechanical response of type IV composite pressure vessels subjected to internal pressure: A numerical and experimental study

Type IV composite pressure vessels represent the current state-of-the-art for compressed gaseous hydrogen storage in fuel cell electric vehicles. A combination of highly demanding safety regulations and the need for cost competitive solutions make the topic of CPVs particularly challenging. Given the elevated material price of carbon fiber,...

A hydrogen-based integrated energy and transport system: The design and analysis of the Car as Power Plant Concept

In recent years, the European Union (EU) has set ambitious targets toward a carbon-free energy transition. Many studies show that a drastic reduction in greenhouse gas emissions-at least 90% by 2050-is required. In the transition toward a sustainable energy system, solar (or green) hydrogen plays many important roles, as it is a clean and safe...
