Lab-field multi-energy platform: electrolyzer, redox flow battery, and lithium-ion battery energy storage system
Year: 2024
Type: preprint
Abstract: The recent transition in the power system brings challenges like load and demand imbalance, intermittent renewable energy recourses, and the risk of lumping load from power-to-X applications.The battery energy storage system (BESS) is a viable solution for short-term and long-term balancing.Combined with the upcoming major load type of the electrolyzer, we propose the labfield multi-energy system platform for validating a demonstration of a virtual power plant for gridconnection synergies.Based on the field tests, we summarize the characteristics of the redox flow BESS, lithium-ion BESS, and electrolyzer.The response time of these components varies from one second for the redox flow BESS to a few hours for the electrolyzer.As these components have different response times, efficiency, and capacity, our work provides a reference for the hardware performance and lays the foundation for further implementation and optimization.
