  • The Role and Status of Hydrogen and Fuel Cells Across the Global Energy System
    The role and status of hydrogen and fuel cells across the global energy system Iain Staffell(a), Daniel Scamman(b), Anthony Velazquez Abad(b), Paul Balcombe(c), Paul E. Dodds(b), Paul Ekins(b), Nilay Shah(d) and Kate R. Ward(a). (a) Centre for Environmental Policy, Imperial College London, London SW7 1NE. (b) UCL Institute for Sustainable Resources, University College London, London WC1H 0NN. (c) Sustainable Gas Institute, Imperial College London, SW7 1NA. (d) Centre for Process Systems Engineering, Dept of Chemical Engineering, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ. Abstract Hydrogen technologies have experienced cycles of excessive expectations followed by disillusion. Nonetheless, a growing body of evidence suggests these technologies form an attractive option for the deep decarbonisation of global energy systems, and that recent improvements in their cost and performance point towards economic viability as well. This paper is a comprehensive review of the potential role that hydrogen could play in the provision of electricity, heat, industry, transport and energy storage in a low-carbon energy system, and an assessment of the status of hydrogen in being able to fulfil that potential. The picture that emerges is one of qualified promise: hydrogen is well established in certain niches such as forklift trucks, while mainstream applications are now forthcoming. Hydrogen vehicles are available commercially in several countries, and 225,000 fuel cell home heating systems have been sold. This represents a step change from the situation of only five years ago. This review shows that challenges around cost and performance remain, and considerable improvements are still required for hydrogen to become truly competitive.

  • Fuel Cell Technology for Domestic Built Environment Applications: State Of-The-Art Review
    FUEL CELL TECHNOLOGY FOR DOMESTIC BUILT ENVIRONMENT APPLICATIONS: STATE OF-THE-ART REVIEW Theo Elmer*, Mark Worall, Shenyi Wu and Saffa Riffat Architecture, Climate and Environment Research Group The University of Nottingham, NG7 2RD (UK) *corresponding author email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Fuel cells produce heat when generating electricity, thus they are of particular interest for combined heat and power (CHP) and combined cooling heat and power (CCHP) applications, also known as tri-generation systems. CHP and tri-generation systems offer high energy conversion efficiency and hence the potential to reduce fuel costs and CO2 emissions. This paper serves to provide a state-of-the-art review of fuel cell technology operating in the domestic built environment in CHP and tri-generation system applications. The review aims to carry out an assessment of the following topics: (1) the operational advantages fuel cells offer in CHP and tri-generation system configurations, specifically, compared to conventional combustion based technologies such as Stirling engines, (2) how decarbonisation, running cost and energy security in the domestic built environment may be addressed through the use of fuel cell technology, and (3) what has been done to date and what needs to be done in the future. The paper commences with a review of fuel cell technology, then moves on to examine fuel cell CHP systems operating in the domestic built environment, and finally explores fuel cell tri-generation systems in domestic built environment applications. The paper concludes with an assessment of the present development of, and future challenges for, domestic fuel cells operating in CHP and tri-generation systems.

  • Drive Train Analysis and Vehicle Dynamics for the C,Mm,N 2.0
    Drive Train Analysis and Vehicle Dynamics for the c,mm,n 2.0 R.P.C. van Dorst, B.J.H van Laarhoven R.A.M Meesters, M.W.F. Mol DCT 2008.142 Master Team Project report Coaches: dr.ir. I.J.M. Besselink dr.ir. T. Hofman Supervisor: prof.dr. H. Nijmeijer Technische Universiteit Eindhoven Department Mechanical Engineering Dynamics and Control Technology Group Eindhoven, November, 2008 Abstract The c,mm,n project was initiated in 2005 by the foundation of Nature and Environment (Stichting Natuur en Milieu, SNM) as an answer to the 2005 AutoRAI, where there was little attention for environmentally friendly cars. SNM asked the help of the three universities of technology in the Netherlands to develop a sustainable car for the future. This first phase of the c,mm,n project is called c,mm,n 1.0 and many aspects of the c,mm,n 1.0 car became research topics for graduate students. The results of c,mm,n 1.0 were presented at the 2007 AutoRAI. In November 2007, the c,mm,n 2.0 project was launched. SNM plans to make a new presentation of c,mm,n 2.0 on the 2009 edition of the AutoRAI with the desire to show a driveable prototype. To assist SNM in this task, this report presents a new drive train option which is analyzed and compared to the two c,mm,n 1.0 drive trains. Additionally, the vehicle dynamics of the c,mm,n vehicle are analyzed. The two c,mm,n 1.0 drive trains are a fuel cell supercapacitor hybrid (FCSCH) drive train and an internal combustion engine with cylinder deactivation (ICE) drive train.

  • Micro Generation and Customer Side Smart Grid Infrastructures
    Micro Generation and Customer Side Smart Grid Infrastructures Thomas M. Korman1, Ph.D., P.E., 1Professor, Construction Management Department, California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo, CA 93407-0284 (805-270-5072, [email protected]) ABSTRACT: The implementation of the Smart Grid is gradually changing the nature of the electrical distribution system in the United States. With the Smart Grid, electrical power generation and distribution is becoming a two-way process between customers and generators. Being a bi-way process, there are two sides of the smart grid; the first being the utility side and second being the customer side. As the utility side smart grid is implemented, customers will have the opportunity to tailor their electrical power usage and reduce energy consumption costs through the customer side components of the smart grid. This includes energy management systems, micro-generation, and energy storage systems. This presents many new opportunities for electrical contractors to enhance existing systems in residential, commercial, and industrial facilities. This paper focuses on the wide range of energy management applications and electrical service provider interactions, including: On-site generation, Demand response, Electrical storage, Peak demand management, Forward power usage estimation, Load shedding capability estimation, End load monitoring (sub metering), Power quality of service monitoring, Utilization of historical energy consumption data, and Responsive energy control. INTRODUCTION Many consider traditional building systems to be ineffective at automatically adjusting to user needs because they require complex programming that is not flexible or adaptable with changing environments and different end users. Smart grid technologies, however, are designed to be adaptive and self-programing to the needs of the user.

  • Environmental and Efficiency Analysis of Simulated Application of The
    energies Article Environmental and Efficiency Analysis of Simulated Application of the Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Co-Generation System in a Dormitory Building Han Chang * and In-Hee Lee * Department of Architecture, Pusan National University, Busan 46241, Korea * Correspondence: [email protected] (H.C.); [email protected] (I.-H.L.) Received: 23 August 2019; Accepted: 11 October 2019; Published: 15 October 2019 Abstract: The problem of air pollution in Korea has become progressively more serious in recent years. Since electricity is advertised as clean energy, some newly developed buildings in Korea are using only electricity for all energy needs. In this research, the annual amount of air pollution attributable to energy under the traditional method in a dormitory building, which is supplying both natural gas and electricity to the building, was compared with the annual amount of air pollution attributable to supplying only electricity. The results showed that the building using only electricity emits much more air pollution than the building using electricity and natural gas together. Under the traditional method of energy supply, a residential solid oxide fuel cell cogeneration system (SOFC–CGS) for minimizing environmental pollution of the building was simulated. Furthermore, as a high load factor could lead to high efficiency of the SOFC–CGS, sharing of the SOFC–CGS by multi-households could increase its efficiency. Finally, the environmental pollution from using one system in one household was compared with that from sharing one system by multi-households. The results showed that the environmental pollution from sharing the system was relatively higher but still similar to that when using one system in one household.
