Green hydrogen production from offshore wind power: A reliability centric approach to an integrated techno-economic system performance evaluation

The objective of this study is to generate insights into the application of the reliability of a W2H system and its impact on the techno-economic performance. This involves examining the case of a single system to analyse on a micro-level the underlying conditions affecting performance, as well as exploring W2H farms to observe performance and...

Towards renewable hydrogen-based electrolysis: Alkaline vs Proton Exchange Membrane

This paper focuses on the battle for a dominant design for renewable hydrogen electrolysis in which the designs, alkaline and proton exchange membrane, compete for dominance. First, a literature review is performed to determine the most relevant factors that influence technology dominance. Following that, a Best Worst Method analysis is...

The European Green Hydrogen Network: Knowledge Development and Diffusion in the European Water Electrolysis Network and the Role of RTOs in Improving it

In order to fight climate change, the EU is providing funds for knowledge development on water electrolysis technologies. Numerous projects have been funded so far, and an EU wide water electrolysis network has been formed, however, from an RTOs perspective, there is no overview of knowledge development and knowledge diffusion regarding the...

From wind to hydrogen: Technical design, analysis and economic study of a hydrogen production and transportation system powered by a nearshore wind farm

This research aims to design and analyse possible system configurations for a system in which wind energy from a Dutch wind farm, supplemented with electricity from the grid, is utilized to produce green hydrogen using an electrolyser, including options for transport of hydrogen to the consumer, and to perform an economic analysis on these...

Shipping Sunshine: A techno-economic analysis of a dedicated green hydrogen supply chain from the Port of Sohar to the Port of Rotterdam

The Port of Rotterdam has the vision to become a zero-emission port in 2050. At the mo- ment, the port area emits about 18% of Dutch CO2 emissions. Various studies have been conducted on how to reach this vision. Among others, the Wuppertal Institute has investig- ated what set of technologies in each scenario would be desirable to employ....

Receiving Sunshine: A feasibility study on imported green hydrogen as a feedstock for current and future hydrogen markets in the hinterland of the Port of Rotterdam

Due to the abundance of solar energy resources in Oman and the participation in the joint venture of the Port of Rotterdam in the Port of Sohar, importing green hydrogen in the Port of Rotterdam has been suggested. In part one of this two-part research (Shipping Sunshine) two green hydrogen import prices were calculated based on a 100 [GW] solar...
