An examination of the criteria necessary for successful worldwide deployment of isolated, renewable hydrogen stationary power systems

摘要

This paper examines the top-down rationale and methods for using hydrogen as an energy carrier in isolated, stationary power systems. Such an examination can be useful because it provides a framework for detailed research on subsystems and helps clarify why, when and where large-scale hydrogen use would be beneficial. It also helps define the pathway for an evolving hydrogen stationary power market worldwide. Remote, stationary power systems are an ideal market entry opporturity for hydrogen. For example, if it is sufficiently difficult for conventional fuels to reach a commumity, and indigenous renewable s ources are present, then on-site cean energy production becomes economically competitive.
