Stabilizing green hydrogen: Simulating the use of energy storage systems for the stabilization of renewable hydrogen production

To mitigate the effects of climate change, CO2-emmissions will have to be reduced. This can be done by substituting the use of fossil, CO2-heavy by the use of renewable, CO2-neutral energy carriers.
