20% of peak capacity (40GW) in Summer

ENERGY STORAGE: THE NEED

HYDROGEN ENERGY SYSTEMS

• Evidence of grid balancing problems from Germany, Denmark and Spain

• Problems start at 20% capacity; UK hit this threshold at the end of 2013

• Energy Storage is a Market Pull

THE NEED: GRID BALANCING

ENERGY STORAGE | CLEAN FUEL

BALANCING SUPPLY AND DEMAND:

• A total of £725m paid for balancing services in 2010-11

• Estimates in 2020 are: circa £1.9bn - £5.9bn pa

• Tariffs already operational in the UK

WHAT’S UNIQUE ABOUT ITM ELECTROLYSERS?

Rapid response | Self pressurising

• 1 sec response time

• 80bar self pressurising

• 1MW units

WHY POWER-TO-GAS?

POWER-TO-GAS RATIONALE

Electricity cannot be stored easily | Hydrogen can be stored easily in the gas grid

ENERGY STORAGE TECHNOLOGIES

ENERGY STORAGE TECHNOLOGIES

Power-to-gas is efficient | long term | low energy cost


11


EU POWER-TO-GAS ENERGY STORAGE

EU Hydrogen Limits for Injection into the HP Gas Grid

Covered by a range of local laws and EU Directives Note: interpretation of these

rules is complex

Limit falls to 2% if there is a

CNG station downstream

WHERE DOES THE GAS GO?

GAS USAGE IN THE UK (DUKES 2013)

Source: Dukes 2013

Where does the gas go?

• 906 TWh of natural gas consumed in the UK in 2011

• 52% was used to provide heat

• 34% burned in power stations to make electricity

DECC: UK HEAT STRATEGY

The Future of Heating: Meeting the challenge

• 70% of UK heat comes from natural gas

• Low penetration of renewable heat in the UK

RHI launched Nov. 2011

• 12% of heating from renewables by 2020

• 57 TWh hydrogen

• Circa 18,600 MW Electrolysis

Curtailment

HYDROGEN FRACTION VS EXCESS WIND LEVELS


• Capturing 2.8 TWh pa of excess wind (ie 4% of 2020 output)

• Requiring 978MW of electrolysis at 30% utilisation

• Results in average national hydrogen content of 0.5%, reducing carbon footprint by 0.2%

CPUC Sets the energy storage mandate for the power sector

• Energy storage target of 1,325 megawatts

• 3 major CA utilities by 2020

• Optimization of the grid, including peak reduction

• Integration of renewable energy

• Reduction of GHG emissions to 80% below 1990 levels by 2050

“This decision represents an important first step in encouraging

the storage market and supporting grid reliability,” Commissioner Carla J. Peterman, the lead Commissioner for this proceeding.
