Abstract

Abstract : Power-to-gas is a versatile and effective form of energy storage by which electrolysis generates hydrogen. The produced hydrogen thus becomes an alternative energy vector, which can be contained within the natural gas energy infrastructure or other storage medium. By means of the rapid response of polymer electrolyte membrane electrolysers, Power-to-Gas can also use natural gas energy storage to offer auxiliary and regulatory power services of high value, as well as energy transformation. A General Algebraic Modelling Simulation illustrates the effectiveness of Power-to-Gas in offering green hydrogen while also performing Demand-Response ancillary services.
