Resilience quantification and enhancement of energy system operations with hydrogen integration

Objective

Hydrogen has emerged as the primary energy source for European countries to pursue net zero. However, due to the lower heat value compared with natural gas, the integration of hydrogen can substantially reduce the flexibility of the energy system, rendering it more vulnerable to extreme operating conditions. With various prospective hydrogen integration pathways adopted by different countries, this project aims to answer two key questions: Will hydrogen integration make the energy system less resilient? And if so, how to mitigate these side effects? Hence, the project will be conducted in five essential steps: physical-informed extreme scenario identification, flexibility quantification, resilience mapping, resilience enhancement, and real-time validation. Multidisciplinary knowledge, including electrical, mechanical, environmental, and civil engineering, will work collaboratively to ensure comprehensive research outcomes. Various open science practices, dissemination activities, and training initiatives will be implemented to increase the impact and refine the scientific and transferable skills of the researcher. The expected results of this project will firstly address the resilience issues of hydrogen-integrated energy systems, contribute to a reliable energy transition in Europe, and solidify Europe’s leading position in the global hydrogen industry.
