De mogelijke rol van waterstof binnen de energietransitie

De mogelijke rol van Waterstof binnen de Energietransitie

“een introductie op Waterstof ”

“Yes, my friends, I believe

that water will one day be

employed as fuel, that

hydrogen and oxygen

which constitute it, used

singly or together, will

furnish an inexhaustible

source of heat and light”

So Why Hydrogen?

• There is enough renewable energy potential

not at the right spot on the right time;

• Storage of renewable energy is key;

• Intermittency of renewable production needs

buffering in the network;

• Mobility needs clean energy-carriers;

• Usage of existing assets and infrastructure;

• Power 2 products;

Why now ?

• Decrease of renewable production prices,

renewable investments surpass fossilde;

• Speed of development in electric mobility;

• Fukishima;

• Decreasing the Dutch natural gasproduction;

Why here ?

• Urgency, due to the Earthquake issues ;

• Knowledge and skills in the existing labor

market ;

• There is an existing Hydrogen market in this

region;

• Geographic location and available space;

• New Jobs;

Opportunities

• (Clean) mobility / public transport;

• High Temperature demand industry;

• E-Grid capacity issues (intermittency / buffering);

• Heat demand housing;

Pilots needed ?

• Gain experience and competencies;

• Make mistakes;

• Create demand;

• Create awareness;

• Supply of green Electricity

• Down- and upscaling;

• Reduction of costs;

• Supply or demand ?

• Reputation;

Megawatt test center – HydroHub

• Partners: Nouryon, Yara, Shell, Frames, RUG, Hanze, ISPT, GSP, Gasunie, TNO.

• Goals :

– Reduction of ‘Total cost of ownership’ of electrolysers

– Price down of hydrogen. (Capex, Opex, Cp EQ, price of ‘equipment related part’)

• Experts of RUG, HG, TNO, Nouryon : aging effects, new materials, different configuration, other components etc.

• Increase of flexibility, robustness, durability • Character of project : open innovation • Safety : support by experts of the Gasunie • Permits : trajectory OGD / local authorities

• Springboard for H₂-equivalent (applied) research and industrial developments

• Location at EnTranCe

Waterstof Booster

• Partners: Hanze, Stork, Kiwa, NEC, VNO NCW & MKB-Noord, BAM, Noorderpoort, Solarfields,..

• Goals :

– Connecting and supporting initiatives, companies and organisations to innovate and tp accelerate developments in the hydrogen value chain.

– Open innovation, innovative ecosystem

– Education, training, from vocational education - (applied) research, – Support and facilitate SME’s with the development of services, processes

and/or products in the hydrogen value chain. – Create conditions for small scale experiments

• Experts of the hydrogreenn(and other) network support SME’s in the development process.

• Location at EnTranCe
