Generation of hydrogen by electrolysis.
From the feasibility study to the presentation of results.
DATE: 09.2019
TIMING: 6 MONTHS
The project provided for a feasibility study regarding a 80 MW plant capable to produce hydrogen by electrolysis. A comparison between PEM and alkaline electrolyzers has been made (with offer requests to different suppliers), based on price, performance, flexibility, opex. Thus, a definition of the considered optimal solution has been reached based on a preliminary LCoH and the TLR level of technological maturity reached by a plant of this size. Steps were then taken to design the remaining part of the plant (BOP), downstream and upstream the electrolyzer, with related cost estimate and calculation of the resulting LCoH, completing the study with the equipment definition and the estimate of compression costs in line with possible storage
PROJECT
Plant to generate hydrogen by electrolysis and fuel gas turbines.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate possible investments to reduce dependency on fossil fuels.
ANSWER
A multidisciplinary engineering team capable to analyze the context, design and quantify the costs of the new plant.
A PROJECT REALIZED WITH THE CONTRIBUTION OF 2 STREAM CONSORTIUM COMPANIES
Studio di fattibilità per un impianto per la produzione di idrogeno da elettrolisi da 80 MW.
RESULTS
Feasibility study accompanied by general context, advantage/ disadvantage analysis, of possible solutions and suppliers, conceptual design, cost analysis for implementation and management, main drivers of the project, resulting LCoH for preferred solution.
