Despite the integration of renewable energy sources like photovoltaic (PV) systems, the intermittent nature and low reliability of these resources necessitate additional energy storage solutions. The study investigates the effectiveness of various power system configurations, including PV only, PV/BES, and PV/BES/H<sub>2</sub> systems. Using HOMER software, the study delves into investigating the impact of different outage parameters, specifically focusing on the outage durations and frequencies to the reliability and cost-effectiveness of these systems. The study analyzes how these outage parameters influence the loss of power supply probability (LPSP) and the cost of energy (COE). Three cases were being investigated in this study, which are Case 1: Varying mean outage duration (MOD) with fixed outage frequency (OF), Case 2: Varying OF with MOD and Case 3: Varying both the MOD and OF. The inclusion of H<sub>2</sub> storage significantly reduced the LPSP in Case 1, from a range of 0.882%–2.79% in the PV/BES system to a much lower range of 0.15%–0.392%. In Case 2, the PV/BES/H<sub>2</sub> system also markedly improved reliability, lowering the LPSP from 0.0751% to 1.28% in the PV/BES system to just 0.0279%–0.189%. The results of Case 3 demonstrate that OF has a greater impact on system reliability, as evidenced by a significantly larger rate of change in LPSP when varying OF with constant MOD compared to varying MOD with constant OF. Therefore, the inclusion of energy storage significantly enhances reliability, with the PV/BES/H<sub>2</sub> system showing the lowest LPSP values in both cases. However, COE for the PV/BES/H<sub>2</sub> system was higher in both cases, ranging from 0.22 to 0.326 $/kWh, compared to 0.101 to 0.156 $/kWh for the PV/BES system. This highlights the need for advancements in H<sub>2</sub> storage technology to reduce cost.

Today, an overwhelming portion of this waste ends up in industrial waste disposal sites. Wherefore, anaerobic co-digestion (ACoD) emerges as an effective technique for waste treatment, being environmentally and economically viable, since a microbial community converts by-products into renewable energy in the form of biogas, with high levels of hydrogen and other gases. ACoD has proven effective in the management of organic waste from agro-industry. However, mastering the biochemistry of the process, especially when varying the mixtures of waste used, is essential for controlling biological reactors and optimizing energy production. Even though separate studies have evaluated the anaerobic digestion of rice parboiling effluent and peach processing residue, co-digestion of both are scarcely investigated. The knowledge and mastery of the process parameters using this mixture are essential to ensure effective operational control of anaerobic reactors with maximum energy generation. Therefore, this research evaluated the biogas production from ACoD of rice parboiling effluent and waste of peaches processing. The experiment followed a batch regime based on a 2<sup>2</sup>-factorial arrangement. The factors used were the peach percentage in the substrate (P), which varied from 2.5 to 5%, and the substrate-inoculum ratio (S/I), which was alternated between 1.5 and 2.5 gCOD/gVSS. The average Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) removal efficiency of the reactors was 82.1% and, after the digestion process, the pH of the reactors remained neutral, showing that anaerobic digestion is a suitable method for treating the assessed wastes. In the analyzed proportions, the higher the peach percentage in the substrate, the lower the total methane production, whereas the S/I demonstrated the opposite effect. Reactors III (S/I = 2.5 and P = 2.5%), presented the most durable and the highest production, being the best combination of the factorial studied. Finally, it can be said that for the state of Rio Grande do Sul, the largest rice and peach producer in Brazil, ACoD of the wastes assessed in this research represents a significantly relevant option, enabling the development of the circular economy, the industrial symbiosis, and the sustainable production in the State.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":337,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Hydrogen Energy","volume":"94 ","pages":"Pages 912-921"},"PeriodicalIF":8.1,"publicationDate":"2024-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142657165","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}
