Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of marine new energy technology and relates to an offshore floating wind power hydrogen production and filling station and an operation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, wind power, as a renewable and clean energy source, has continuously increased its share in the world's energy supply. my country's wind power industry is currently developing rapidly, and its total power generation has reached the first place in the world. However, there are few onshore and offshore wind farms left, and the deep sea will surely become the main battlefield for the future development of the wind power industry. Deep sea areas are rich in wind resources, but shore-connected grid connection requires the addition of offshore substations, long-distance cables and other facilities, resulting in large power transmission losses and high costs. In recent years, the industry has proposed a method of using wind power to produce hydrogen, which is to convert unstable wind power into a stable energy storage medium, and has been put into practical use on land abroad.

[0003] At present, the most common way to produce hydrogen is electrolysis. According to the different electrolyzers [Zhao Yinfeng, Analysis of Patent Technology for Hydrogen Production from Offshore Wind Power, Science and Technology Innovation and Application, Issue 25, 2024], electrolysis can be divided into three types: alkaline, proton exchange membrane, and solid oxide. As for the electrolysis method, alkaline electrolysis and proton exchange membrane electrolysis are still the mainstream methods of electrolysis. Both technologies require pure water as the raw material for electrolysis.

[0004] One of the main difficulties in offshore wind power hydrogen production is the storage, transmission and consumption of hydrogen [Liu Chao, Li Ouping, Shen Qi, Cheng Guangyuan, Yu Xichong, Offshore Wind Power Hydrogen Production Mode and Adaptability Analysis, China Offshore Platform, 2024, 39(05)]. At present, the common hydrogen storage methods include gaseous hydrogen storage, liquid hydrogen storage and synthetic ammonia hydrogen storage. Since the liquefaction temperature of hydrogen is -252.78℃, it is necessary to install large-scale refrigeration and high-pressure equipment on the floating basis, which increases the weight and safety risks of the system. Synthetic ammonia hydrogen storage is to further synthesize green hydrogen with CO2 or N2 into methanol or ammonia, and use transport ships to transport it, but it may require the introduction of a large amount of CO2 or N2 as raw materials, which is difficult to operate in the deep sea for a long time.

[0005] The offshore export of liquid hydrogen requires the development of dedicated insulated pipelines and connecting joints, and the technology is not yet mature.

[0006] On the other hand, most traditional transport ships use diesel as energy. It is highly polluting. During ocean transport, due to the lack of marine fuel supply, large fuel tanks need to be installed, which squeezes the cargo capacity of the cargo hold and leads to poor economy. In recent years, with the improvement of energy-saving and environmental protection technologies, the use of clean energy such as hydrogen as fuel has become one of the development trends of future ships. Summary of the invention

[0007] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention proposes an offshore floating wind power hydrogen production and filling station and its operation method, which uses gaseous hydrogen for storage and external transmission. Setting up the device on freight-intensive routes can be conducive to the full development and utilization of deep-sea wind power resources, and play the role of an offshore refueling station, which can effectively reduce the size of ship fuel tanks, reduce transportation costs, and reduce ship pollution.

[0008] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0047] The crane tightens the suspension line, and the hydrogen transmission connector 20 is connected to the hydrogen receiving end at the bow. Then the hydrogen pressure transmission device 16 pressurizes the hydrogen and transmits it to the ship's fuel tank through the hydrogen transmission hard pipe 17 and the hydrogen transmission hose 16.
