Co-generation and transport system integrated in a building using PEM electrolyser and PEM fuel cell

The project will demonstrate the concept of application of reversible fuel cells integrated into a building, with generation of hydrogen from excess electricity from nearby renewable energy systems (wind power and photovoltaic) or electricity and heat generation from stored hydrogen.

Project description

The hydrogen can as well be utilised locally as a fuel for cars. A plant based on the newest technology PEM (proton exchange membrane), which operates near room temperature and therefore is well suited for building integration, will be demonstrated. The building selected for the demonstration is SkibstedFjord Training Centre. The energy production, the utilisation of excess renewable energy in the grid, energy consumption and storage facility will be analysed in order to create the optimum control system and utilisation of hydrogen in the system. Relevant parameters will be measured at a period of one year after the installation of the plant. Because, it has not been possible to purchase a reversible fuel cell, the concept will be demonstrated by the use of a separate electrolyser and fuel cell
