Hydrogen Decentralised Energy Utilisation and Storage (HYDERUS )

氢气分散能源利用和储存（HYDERUS）项目将开发和演示零碳热电联产（CHP）系统，将可再生和低碳氢气生产、输送、混合和储存技术与Aurelia涡轮机A400（400千瓦）燃气轮机发动机相结合。在Costain Group plc的领导下，HYDERUS的第一阶段将对项目模型、制氢方法和热电联产需求中心进行可行性研究，最适合Aurelia涡轮机A400\。在第二阶段，热电联产将被安装在卡迪夫大学燃气轮机研究中心的首选位置，以产生低碳的热量和电力，该中心位于下塔尔博特港的南威尔士工业集群（SWIC）的核心。鉴于陆上风力发电（Mynydd Brombil和Pen y Cymoedd）靠近示范点，该可行性研究将考虑通过电解将当地可再生能源发电转化为零碳氢气的潜力。其他需要评估的氢气生产和输送方案包括中银玛格姆蒸汽甲烷重整器（SMR）的直接管道，通过水煤气转换和管道利用塔塔钢铁公司的过程氢气，以及带有碳捕获和储存（CCS）的现场SMR。除了安装地点周围的当地威尔士议会政府大楼外，还将评估从热电联产直接向当地的下塔尔伯特港学校Ysgol Cwm Brombil提供低碳电力。通过开发这种新型的氢热电联产包，HYDERUS的成果旨在为整个SWIC，英国工业集群及其周围社区的工业热电生产，储存和利用分散式脱碳氢气提供路线图。通过直接与内斯-塔尔伯特港委员会合作，HYDERUS还将提供一个互动培训工具，让学生和当地社区参与氢技术。从SBRI第一阶段申请的资金将用于支持这项可行性研究，为建造、安装和操作演示器的第二阶段更大的资金申请做准备。Costain Group plc将进行可行性研究，与氢热电联产价值链上的主要利益相关者合作，包括Aurelia涡轮机、BOC、卡迪夫大学GTRC、卡迪夫大学综合可再生能源发电和供应中心、内斯-塔尔伯特港委员会、斯旺西大学SPECIFIC、南威尔士大学氢中心、Vattenfall、威尔士和西部公用事业公司以及威尔士议会政府。

The Hydrogen Decentralised Energy Utilisation and Storage (HYDERUS) project will develop and demonstrate a zero-carbon combined heat and power (CHP) system, integrating renewable and low-carbon hydrogen production, delivery, blending, and storage technologies with an Aurelia Turbines A400 (400 kW) gas turbine engine. Led by Costain Group plc, Phase 1 of HYDERUS will conduct a feasibility study into the project models, hydrogen production methods, and CHP demand centres best suitable for the Aurelia Turbine A400\. In Phase 2, the CHP will be installed at the preferred location to generate low-carbon heat and power at Cardiff University's Gas Turbine Research Centre, which sits at the heart of the South Wales Industrial Cluster (SWIC) in Neath-Port Talbot. Given the proximity of on-shore wind generation (Mynydd Brombil and Pen y Cymoedd) to the demonstration site, the potential to convert and store local renewable generation as zero-carbon hydrogen through electrolysis will be considered by this feasibility study. Other hydrogen production and delivery options to be evaluated include direct pipeline from BOC Margam steam-methane reformer (SMR), utilisation of process hydrogen from Tata Steel via water-gas shift and pipeline, and on-site SMR with carbon capture and storage (CCS). Direct delivery of low-carbon electricity from the CHP to a local Neath-Port Talbot school, Ysgol Cwm Brombil, will also be evaluated in addition to the local Welsh Assembly Government buildings around the installation site. By developing this novel hydrogen CHP package, the outcomes of HYDERUS then aim to provide a roadmap for decentralised, decarbonised hydrogen production, storage, and utilisation for industrial heat and power throughout SWIC, the UK industrial clusters, and the communities which surround them. By engaging directly with Neath-Port Talbot council, HYDERUS will also provide an interactive training tool for engagement with the students and local community on hydrogen technology. The funding requested from SBRI Phase 1 will be utilised to support this feasibility study in preparation for a larger Phase 2 funding application for the demonstrator to be constructed, installed and operated. Costain Group plc will produce the feasibility study, engaging with key stakeholders across the hydrogen CHP value chain, including Aurelia Turbines, BOC, Cardiff University's GTRC, Cardiff University's Centre for Integrated Renewable Energy Generation and Supply, Neath-Port Talbot Council, Swansea University SPECIFIC, University of South Wales Hydrogen Centre, Vattenfall, Wales and West Utilities, and Welsh Assembly Government.
