“…For this purpose, the conversion efficiencies of each considered technology with respect to each output energy, e.g., the electric efficiency of a combined heat and power plant, are related to the overall efficiency of the converter. 4 The resulting value is the share of a certain energy output in the overall energy output of one technology. For a certain technology i with a conversion efficiency h ik with respect to the kth output energy and a total efficiency of h i,tot , the share of output k in the total energy output of a converter is…”

SUMMARYOngoing changes in energy systems offer the opportunity to reconsider the design of our current energy infrastructures. As many new grid participants like combined heat and power plants involve other forms of energy in addition to electricity, the consideration of multi-energy networks represents a useful planning approach. This approach consists in an integrated analysis of combined infrastructures for conversion, transmission and storage of electricity, heat and chemical energy carriers. The integrated operation of systems with different energy carriers offers a new degree of freedom to system planners: energy can be generated, stored, and transmitted in various forms before being distributed to consumers in the adequate form. Different possible solutions for the design of multi-energy systems will exhibit differences in costs and risks. In order to adequately assess these two quantities, mean-variance portfolio theory is applied. Portfolio theory has been used in several cases of electricity generation planning. This paper shows the required modeling adaptations for the analysis of portfolios with multiple energy outputs and illustrates the application of portfolio theory in the context of multi-energy infrastructures. The presented method can be used for the integrated planning of energy systems including the generation, the transmission and the possibility of additional conversion of multiple energy carriers.

“…By using the produced hydrogen as fuel for the H 2 propelled ferry, the avoidance of emissions might reach 1940 t/yr and 14.6 t/yr for CO 2 and NO x respectively based on the case of the grid connected WH system [73]. Mathur et al (2008) have assessed the economic potential for producing hydrogen from onshore and offshore wind and use it as transportation fuel in India. For cluster capacities below 100 MW, the hydrogen cost per MJ was found to be very high (17.7 €/MJ).…”

“…At higher capacity values, the contribution of the transmission system decreased, and therefore, H 2 cost lowered. Similarly, moving to offshore, the energy yield increased, resulting in a cost reduction of 20.2% for a 100 MW cluster capacity [74]. Grüger et al (2018) argued that in order to achieve low H 2 fuel costs for transportation, it is required to optimise the water electrolysis process while operating at low electricity costs and combined with wind energy.…”

This study looks into possibilities of hydrogen production on an offshore platform in Norway, to capitalize Norway's offshore wind potential matching political goals to reduce emissions and make Norway's transportation sector cleaner. The potential power output of a hypothetical offshore wind farm has been assessed using real operating data of other wind farms. The usable electricity was between 258GWh year and 404 GWh year segmented into three scenarios. Solid oxide electrolysis cell and proton exchange membrane electrolysis are compared. Their function and the necessary technologies to operate them are described in detail. Based on these scenarios the annual hydrogen production was calculated with values between 1530 and 8020 tons per year. The second part of the study estimates the investment to find the production cost per kilogram hydrogen, which was compared to recent fuel prices in Norway to see whether the production of hydrogen was profitable. Prices vary between 5.20 € and 106.10 € per kg hydrogen.
