Abstract
The study presents the first technical and economic assessment of green hydrogen production large scale based on wind and solar resources in the Republic of Ireland. Three locations are chosen for the study, with different levels of solar radiation, and wind offshore potential nearby export harbours in Ireland. A complex python model HyWiS, Hydrogen Wind Solar, is built to simulate all energy subsystems, including renewable generators, large-scale proton exchange membrane electrolysers, desalination unit, hydrogen storage capacity of one day, and hydrogen pipelines. Temporal meteorological conditions are considered, a quantitative analysis is conducted to determine the levelised cost of electricity, and the levelised cost of hydrogen. Several scenarios at the least cost possible for green hydrogen production are assessed for 2030 and 2040, and the Cork location is determined as the least cost location, with a cost ranging from 3.53 €/kgH2 to 2.75 €/kgH2 respectively.
期刊介绍：
The objective of the International Journal of Hydrogen Energy is to facilitate the exchange of new ideas, technological advancements, and research findings in the field of Hydrogen Energy among scientists and engineers worldwide. This journal showcases original research, both analytical and experimental, covering various aspects of Hydrogen Energy. These include production, storage, transmission, utilization, enabling technologies, environmental impact, economic considerations, and global perspectives on hydrogen and its carriers such as NH3, CH4, alcohols, etc.
The utilization aspect encompasses various methods such as thermochemical (combustion), photochemical, electrochemical (fuel cells), and nuclear conversion of hydrogen, hydrogen isotopes, and hydrogen carriers into thermal, mechanical, and electrical energies. The applications of these energies can be found in transportation (including aerospace), industrial, commercial, and residential sectors.
