Hydrogen in the Distribution Grid for Capacity Planning and Flexibility
Year: 2024
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: By 2050, Norway plans to become a low-emission society, eliminating 90-95 % of greenhouse gases. The government has outlined a hydrogen roadmap that includes both green and blue hydrogen production. This research reviews plans for hydrogen production through electrolysis and examines hydrogen modeling, including storage capabilities. It presents various scenarios focusing on capacity planning and grid integration with flexibility considerations. The implications for the electric grid, when used to provide electricity for hydrogen production via electrolysis, are explored. The study aims to investigate how electrolysers and hydrogen storage can contribute to a flexible power supply in distribution networks.
