The power to power (PTP) system, which stores and re-generates renewable electricity, can mitigate fluctuations of renewable energy. Hydrogen can be used to realize the large-scale peak-load shifting of renewable energy as an energy carrier. However, the high cost and low efficiency of hydrogen production via electrolyzer significantly affect the performance of the PTP system. Furthermore, previous studies have not effectively integrated each part of the PTP system and optimized the parameters, resulting in unsatisfactory performance. In this study, a novel, efficient, and economical PTP system is proposed by integrating an electrified methane reforming process and a gas-steam combined cycle, through which the natural gas reacts with steam to produce hydrogen-rich syngas driven by renewable electricity. Then the syngas is blended in methane to produce electricity. The proposed system is modelled and analyzed in terms of energy and economic aspects. The optimal round-trip efficiency of the novel PTP system is 45.8%, which is 9.8% higher than that of the PTP system coupled with an electrolyzer, and the levelized cost of electricity for the novel system is 11.9% lower. The system can achieve efficient storage and utilization of renewable energy.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":337,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Hydrogen Energy","volume":"95 ","pages":"Pages 118-128"},"PeriodicalIF":8.1,"publicationDate":"2024-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142663022","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, it remains unclear whether these procurement incentives can effectively stimulate the adoption of ZEVs to achieve the expected targets, especially given the wide range of financial and non-financial factors anticipated in the coming decades. To investigate the energy, economic, and environmental aspects of the transition toward ZEVs, we developed the Integrating Market Penetration and Cost Technologies (IMPACT) model. In this study, it was tailored as a detailed analytical and quantification tool for investigating financial incentives for medium- and heavy-duty fuel cell electric trucks (FCETs). The IMPACT model comprises three interconnected sub-models: a vehicle cost model, a vehicle choice model, and an infrastructure model, each specifically tailored for the California market from 2024 to 2040. We designed three different incentive plans based on current policies: the IRS Clean Vehicle Tax Credits (CVTC) and the California Hybrid and Zero-Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP). The proposed hierarchical method facilitates a robust analysis of these incentives in relation to FCET sales and market shares, providing a quantitative basis to gauge the fiscal impact and effectiveness of these incentives over time. Our findings indicate that while financial incentives are crucial for enhancing FCET adoption, their design and implementation must be meticulously planned. Careful balancing of factors such as vehicle cost, infrastructure availability, and long-term sustainability is essential to optimize policy outcomes.

In this study, the combustion and emission processes of an ammonia/hydrogen port fuel injection (PFI) engine at high load operation are numerically analyzed to investigate the effects of intake hydrogen energy ratio (HER), equivalence ratio (<em>φ</em>), intake temperature and combustion chamber wall temperature on energy distribution and pollutants. The results indicate that under the same HER of 25%, the lean-burned mode provides favorable thermal efficiency compared to stoichiometric mode due to reduced combustion and wall heat loss.

The NOx emission is promoted by excessive O radicals at lean conditions, and the pathways of fuel NOx and thermal NOx are also discussed using an isotope labeling method.
