Sydney, 13 October 2015
WaterstofNet
WaterstofNet Non profit organisation, started in 2009
Area: Belgium / Netherlands
Working close together with industry/government
Activities
Owner of 2 HRS , based upon green electricity
Facilitating projects with buses, garbage trucks, fork lifts, vessels, cars
Making roadmaps: H2-Mobility Belgium, roadmap Power to Gas
Representing Belgium within IEA HIA
Don Quichote Development of a New Qualititive and Innovative
concept for hydrogen out of turbine electricity
In other words:
Power to gas with different components and applications
Funded by the European JU-FCH (GA 303 411)
Don Quichote Starting points:
800 kW solar, 1,5 MW wind
Interested enduser in the retail sector
Hydrogen combined with logistic applications and smart grid
Don Quichote Phase 1:
Alkaline electrolyser, 30 Nm³/h, membrame compressor, storage 50 kg (450 bar), dispenser, fuelling forklifts
Phase 2: PEM electrolyser, 30 Nm³/h, PEM fuel cell 100 kW,
storage 50 kg (450 bar), forklifts and feed back electricity to the grid
Phase 3: Electrochemical compressor, electrochemical expander
Don Quichote
Partners
Phase 1: operation since 2012
Fuelling equipment
Fluctuating demand
Phase 1: Results Starting with 2 forklifts means limited hydrogen
demand (underutilisation):
efficiencies reduced
how to define/judge availibility
Now 12 forklifts:
efficiencies higher
availibility fuelling station > 95%
Next step:
almost full loaded HRS by additional forklifts
Availability
Phase 2
Phase 2: Installed 2015
Phase 2: Installed 2015
Phase 2: tests starting
Conclusions Best learning is learning by doing
Dedicated/complementary partners are crucial
Efficiencies and availibility are relevant if nominal use
Every phase has its own dynamics, permits, issues
