Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of hydrogen energy full chain, specifically to a method and system for selecting equipment combination in a hydrogen energy full chain, and more particularly to a method and system for selecting equipment combination in a hydrogen energy full chain for a high-ratio renewable energy system. [Background technology]

[0002] The statements in this section are merely intended to provide background information related to the present invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.

[0003] The large-scale introduction of renewable energy is conducive to the low-carbon development of the energy system, but its variability and randomness pose a huge challenge to the safe and economical operation of the energy system. Lack of flexibility is currently the main challenge facing high-renewable energy systems, which can lead to insufficient consumption and acceptance capacity of the energy system for renewable energy, and the phenomenon of underutilization of wind and solar power generation. The hydrogen energy full chain takes hydrogen energy as the main carrier and includes all processes of its production, compression, storage, transportation and application, which can promote the transfer of different energy flows across time and space, realize the conversion and interaction of various energies, and improve the flexibility of the energy system.

[0004] The hydrogen energy full chain includes various hydrogen energy equipment, and each equipment has multiple technology types, for example, there are three typical electrolyzer equipment types: alkaline electrolysis cell (AEC), proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMEC), and solid oxide electrolysis cell (SOEC), so there are multiple options for equipment in the hydrogen energy full chain in a high-renewable energy system. Equipment with different technology types has different performance advantages, and the combination of different types of equipment can achieve mutual complementation of advantages, which helps improve the overall performance of the high-renewable energy system and achieve both economy, flexibility, and high efficiency.

[0005] At present, there has been research into the combination selection of multiple types of electrolyzers, but there has been no research that simultaneously considers the combination selection of various types of equipment in the hydrogen energy full chain.In addition, in order to simplify the calculation, the hydrogen energy equipment models considered in most studies ignore flexibility constraints and cannot comprehensively simulate the performance differences of equipment.

For example, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular forms used herein are intended to include the plural forms, and it should also be understood that when the terms "comprise" and / or "include" are used herein, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, assemblies, and / or combinations thereof.

[0028] The embodiments and features of the embodiments in the present application may be combined with each other where not inconsistent.

[0029] Example 1 The method for selecting the combination of equipment in the hydrogen energy full chain for a high-renewable energy system is as shown in Figure 5. Obtaining basic technical and economic index parameters of equipment in the hydrogen energy full chain, and classifying the basic technical and economic index parameters according to performance differences of different types of equipment in the hydrogen energy full chain; A step of comparatively analyzing the types of each equipment in the hydrogen energy full chain according to the classification; Based on the result of the comparison analysis, comprehensively consider the performance difference indexes and operation characteristics of the equipment, and establish constraints of classification indexes corresponding to each equipment; determining one of the classification indexes as part of the objective function, determining the remaining classification indexes as constraints, setting different renewable energy penetration rates, solving the optimal results under different renewable energy penetration rates, and obtaining equipment combination selection rules in the hydrogen energy full chain in the high-renewable energy system; and determining an equipment combination selection plan in the hydrogen energy full chain for a target high ratio renewable energy system based on the equipment combination selection rules in the hydrogen energy full chain.

[0030] Specific solutions will be described below.

[0031] First, to examine the performance differences between different types of equipment in the hydrogen energy full chain, the basic economic and technological parameters are divided into three indicators: economy, flexibility and efficiency, and typical technological types of electrolyzers, fuel cells, hydrogen turbines and hydrogen storage equipment are compared and analyzed.

[0032] The relevant equipment in the hydrogen energy full chain has a variety of basic technical and economic parameters, which reflect the performance advantages of different technology types. In this embodiment, the basic technical and economic parameters are divided into three indicators: economy, flexibility and efficiency, and based on this, a comparative analysis of the indicators of typical equipment technology types in the hydrogen energy full chain is carried out to facilitate the subsequent equipment combination selection research.

[0033] The basic technical and economic parameters of related equipment in the hydrogen energy full chain mainly include investment costs, fixed operation and maintenance costs, start-up and shutdown costs, electrical efficiency, thermal efficiency, hydrogen absorption and desorption efficiency, load operating range, ramp rate, start-up and shutdown time and service life.

[0034] The investment cost represents the cost of newly constructing a unit capacity of hydrogen energy equipment, the fixed operation and maintenance cost represents the annual fixed operation and maintenance cost of a unit capacity of hydrogen energy equipment, the start-up and shutdown cost represents the cost incurred when a unit capacity of hydrogen energy equipment switches between operating and shutdown states, and the useful life represents the number of years that a newly constructed hydrogen energy equipment operates normally, for calculating the annual shared costs. Therefore, these four parameters are classified as economic efficiency indicators, of which the investment cost is the main economic efficiency indicator.

[0035] The meaning of electrical efficiency varies depending on the equipment. In the case of an electrolyzer, electrical efficiency means the efficiency of converting electrical energy into hydrogen energy, while in the case of a fuel cell and a hydrogen turbine, electrical efficiency means the efficiency of converting hydrogen energy into electrical energy, while in the case of a compressor, electrical efficiency means the electrical consumption rate during the hydrogen compression process. Similarly, in the case of an electrolyzer, thermal efficiency means the efficiency of utilizing the residual heat generated during the conversion of electrical energy into hydrogen energy, while in the case of a fuel cell and a hydrogen turbine, thermal efficiency means the efficiency of utilizing the residual heat generated during the conversion of hydrogen energy into electrical energy. Hydrogen absorption / release efficiency is the efficiency of storing and releasing hydrogen in a hydrogen storage equipment. Electrical efficiency, thermal efficiency, and hydrogen absorption / release efficiency are classified as efficiency indicators, among which electrical efficiency is the main efficiency indicator.

[0036] The load operating range represents the upper and lower limits of the load when the hydrogen energy equipment is operating, the ramp rate represents the limit on the load change rate per hour of the hydrogen energy equipment, and the start-stop time represents the time for which the hydrogen energy equipment is at least maintained in an operating state and a stopped state. These three parameters are classified as flexibility indicators, of which the ramp rate is the main flexibility indicator.

[0037] Below, we compare the indicators of facilities in the hydrogen energy full chain according to the above classification.

[0038] Electrolyzers, fuel cells, hydrogen turbines and hydrogen storage equipment in the hydrogen energy full chain all have a variety of technological types, and the basic technical and economic parameters of different technological types of electrolyzers, fuel cells, hydrogen turbines and hydrogen storage equipment are summarized in Table 1. Based on the indicator classification, a comparative analysis of typical technological types of hydrogen energy equipment is carried out to intuitively embody the performance advantages of different technologies.

[0039] [Table 1]

[0040] Table 1 shows the unit investment costs of different equipment as follows: the unit of electrolyzer, hydrogen turbine and fuel cell is RMB / kW, and the unit of hydrogen storage equipment is RMB / kg.

[0041] First, the indicators of electrolyzers are compared. Electrolyzers can convert surplus renewable energy power generation into flexible hydrogen, and the residual heat generated in the process can be used for heat supply. Currently, typical electrolyzer technologies are AEC, PEMEC and SOEC. These three technologies use different electrolytes and have large performance differences. The indicators of their economics, flexibility and efficiency are compared as a radar chart in Figure 1. It can be intuitively seen that AEC has the highest economics and is intermediate in efficiency and flexibility, PEMEC has the highest flexibility but the lowest efficiency, and SOEC has the highest efficiency but the lowest economics and flexibility.

[0042] Next, a comparison of fuel cell parameter indices is performed.

[0043] Fuel cells can use hydrogen energy to generate heat and power, and currently, typical fuel cell technologies are proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC), phosphoric acid fuel cells (PAFC), molten carbonate fuel cells (MCFC), and solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC). Similar to electrolyzers, these four technologies use different electrolytes and have large performance differences. The comparison of their economical, flexible, and efficient indicators is shown in Figure 2 as a radar chart, and it can be intuitively seen that PEMFC has the highest economical and flexible properties, SOFC has the highest efficiency, and PAFC and MCFC have less noticeable flexibility and efficiency, and are less economical.

[0044] Next, a comparison of parameter indices for the hydrogen turbine will be performed.

[0045] Hydrogen turbines are another type of equipment that can realize cogeneration of heat and power using hydrogen energy, and are similar to gas turbines. They are divided into three types: small, medium, and large, based on the capacity of a single unit. Since the basic principle remains the same, the performance differences between these three types of hydrogen turbine units are mainly embodied in their economy and flexibility, and the comparison of their economy, flexibility, and efficiency indicators is shown in Figure 3 as a radar chart. It can be intuitively seen that the efficiency of these three types of hydrogen turbines is the same, the small unit has the highest flexibility but the lowest economy, the medium unit has both flexibility and economy at intermediate levels, and the large unit has the highest economy but the lowest flexibility.

[0046] Next, a comparison of parameter indices for the hydrogen storage equipment will be carried out.

[0047] Hydrogen storage equipment can store hydrogen produced by electrolysis when there is a surplus of renewable energy power generation, and release hydrogen when there is a shortage of energy supply, thereby realizing cogeneration of hydrogen turbines and fuel cells. There are two typical hydrogen storage equipment: salt caverns and hydrogen storage tanks. Both belong to gaseous hydrogen storage. The main difference is that hydrogen storage in salt caverns requires a small site area and low cost, but it relies on special geological structures such as salt caverns, and hydrogen storage tanks require high container costs and large site area. From Table 1, it can be seen that the two are similar in other performances, and the difference is mainly embodied in economics, with salt caverns having the highest economics. The hydrogen storage equipment and compressor work together to realize the storage and release of hydrogen, and the difference in the technology types of compressors has not yet been taken into account.

[0048] Next, based on the performance difference indexes and operating characteristics of the equipment, a hydrogen energy equipment model suitable for combination selection is established. The model can select technology types and simulate the combination operation of multiple technology types by comprehensively simulating the differences between different technology types in terms of economy, flexibility, efficiency, etc.

[0049] Here, the equipment economic efficiency index constraints include the following equations (1) to (5).

[0055] Finally, a method for selecting equipment combinations in the hydrogen energy full chain for a high-renewable energy system is proposed, taking into account the constraints of renewable energy penetration rate. The GUROBI solver is used to solve the simulation results at different renewable energy penetration rates, and by inductively summarizing, the equipment combination selection rules for the hydrogen energy full chain in a high-renewable energy system are obtained.

[0056] Specifically, the economic indicators of equipment in the hydrogen energy full chain are taken as part of the objective function, and flexibility and efficiency index constraints are considered together with the renewable energy penetration rate constraint, and the GUROBI solver is used to solve the optimal combination selection results of equipment in the hydrogen energy full chain under different renewable energy penetration rates, and the combination selection rules of equipment in the hydrogen energy full chain in the high renewable energy system are obtained. The method enables hydrogen transportation between adjacent high renewable energy systems, and no hydrogen transportation upper limit is set. The overall architecture of the method is as shown in Figure 4.

[0061] In this embodiment, a specific high-renewable energy interconnection system is used as an example to perform equipment combination selection analysis in the hydrogen energy full chain, and the technical and economic parameters of various equipment and the load curve of the high-renewable energy system are obtained. The renewable energy penetration rates are set at 60%, 80% and 100%, and GUROBI is used to solve the optimal combination selection result of equipment in the hydrogen energy full chain when the objective function is minimized.

[0062] For hydrogen storage equipment and hydrogen turbines, due to the outstanding economic advantages of salt cavern hydrogen storage and large hydrogen power generation units, the selection results solved at different renewable energy penetration rates are all single economically optimal types. For electrolyzers and fuel cells, the combination selection results vary depending on the renewable energy penetration rate. For electrolyzer combination selection, when the renewable energy penetration rate is 60% and 80%, the demand for electrolyzer capacity increases, which has a large impact on the system cost, and the renewable energy capacity is surplus. Therefore, AEC is sufficient to meet the demand for hydrogen production and has better economic efficiency than PEMEC and SOEC of the same capacity, and all the selection results are AEC. When the renewable energy penetration rate reaches 100%, the wind power generation capacity reaches its upper limit, so the system tends to adopt the most efficient SOEC to meet the increasing demand for hydrogen production through hydrogen production power generation, and combine it with the most economical AEC to achieve both economic efficiency. Regarding the selection of fuel cell combinations, when the renewable energy penetration rate is 80%, there is a limit to the renewable energy installed capacity, so high-ratio renewable energy systems tend to adopt SOFCs with optimal efficiency to make up for the energy supply shortage and reduce energy losses. To achieve a renewable energy penetration rate of 100%, it is necessary to add a lot of installed capacity for solar power generation equipment, but since there is a large difference between the amount of solar power generation during the day and at night, systems tend to select PEMFCs with optimal flexibility and economy, and combine them with SOFCs with optimal efficiency to achieve a balance between flexibility, economy, and efficiency.

[0063] From the above results, the rules for selecting equipment combinations in the hydrogen energy full chain can be summarized as follows: for hydrogen storage equipment and hydrogen turbines, priority is given to selecting those with the most optimal cost; for electrolyzers, priority is given to selecting SOECs with the most optimal efficiency when the system has little surplus renewable energy power generation and low equipment demand for electrolyzers; and for fuel cells, priority is given to selecting SOFCs with the most optimal efficiency or PEMFCs with the most optimal flexibility and economy according to energy supply needs. In addition, by using different combinations of equipment in the hydrogen energy full chain according to the actual situation of the energy system, efficient, flexible and economical use of energy can be achieved.

[0064] As described above, this embodiment can effectively obtain the optimal combination selection result of equipment in the hydrogen energy full chain under different renewable energy penetration rates, fully utilize the complementary advantages between different technology types, and realize efficient, flexible and economical use of energy in a high-renewable energy ratio system.
