Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of energy application, and in particular relates to a distributed cooking fuel replacement system and method. Background Art

[0002] The massive emission of greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, has already had a significant impact on our living environment. The depletion of non-renewable fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and natural gas, has also led to unprecedented energy shortages and environmental pollution worldwide. Low-carbon and renewable energy have become inevitable trends in energy development and application, as well as in energy conservation and emission reduction. For example, non-polluting renewable energy sources such as photovoltaics, wind power, and tidal power are key. However, photovoltaics, wind power, and tidal power are regionally and seasonally oriented, and unstable power supply and lack of direct access to the grid have severely limited their rapid development. Research is underway both domestically and internationally on converting unstable electricity into energy storage media such as hydrogen, ammonia, and methanol. Ammonia, with its potential for long-term storage and transport and zero carbon emissions, has received increasing attention. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), traditional gas kitchens emit approximately 0.25 kg of carbon dioxide per person per meal, while all-electric kitchens emit 0.19 kg per person. This suggests that national kitchen emissions total 240-300 million tons of carbon dioxide per year, accounting for 2.4-4% of national carbon dioxide emissions. Summary of the Invention
