An onshore wind to power project produced 2320 kg of hydrogen at a cost of 10– 20 $ kg −1. This used an 165 kW AWE with subsequent compression and storage of 80 kg, with a minimum load of 25% and producing a cost of hydrogen of 4 $ kg −1.
Hydrogen produced using renewable energy from offshore wind provides a versatile method of energy storage and power-to-gas concepts. However, few dedicated floating offshore electrolyser facilities currently exist and therefore conditions of the offshore environment on hydrogen production cost and efficiency remain uncertain.
In this scenario the power for hydrogen production is only provided to the electrolyser between a minimum and maximum load, where the battery is charged during full power peaks, and that power is used to smooth out the low load times, allowing for up to 100 % of energy use, instead of as low as 40% in some instances.
