Creation of a partial energy utilization plan with a focus on hydrogen for the Reisbach market
- The study was carried out by the Institut für Systemische Energieberatung GmbH at Landshut University of Applied Sciences.
- The market town of Reisbach is located in the Lower Bavarian district of Dingolfing-Landau. Climate protection has been of great importance to the municipality for years, which is why renewable energies have been steadily expanded in recent decades. The RE quota is currently far higher than its own requirements. The market therefore generates several gigawatt hours of "surplus electricity" per year, which places a heavy load on the local medium-voltage grid. Nevertheless, renewable energies are to be further expanded. As part of the energy utilization plan, it was investigated whether the current and future surpluses could be used to produce hydrogen.
- To this end, complex "tools" were created to simulate H2 production and to map the utilization paths. Based on a summary of the scientific and technical principles, these generally applicable results were applied specifically to the Reisbach market. The H2 production was specified in 2 scenarios and then the possible (local) utilization was worked out. A detailed technical and economic analysis was carried out for both hydrogen production and utilization. The energy-efficient and economic use of the waste heat inevitably generated during H2 electrolysis and the by-product oxygen was also taken into account.
- For the production of "green" hydrogen, the following questions in particular were examined in Markt Reisbach, as an example of a typical rural municipality:
- What reasonable assumptions should be made for the electrolysis system (production and utilization)?
- Is an (exclusive) direct connection of renewable energy generation plants expedient?
- Does the use of a battery storage system make sense?
- What is the optimum ratio of wind and PV generation?
- Which dimensioning of the electrolyzer makes sense?
