| Popis: | We investigated a large-scale energy storage system based on reversible solid oxide cells, for a future Dutch electrical grid powered entirely by intermittent renewables. Three fuels — hydrogen, ammonia and methane — were investigated for such a system, to find the most suitable one in terms of minimizing the required fuel storage and renewable power generation capacity. The required sizes of fuel storage and power generation using each fuel were estimated using process models of rSOC systems, and a mathematical model of a storage-supported power grid. The results show that the use of hydrogen would lead to the smallest power generation requirement. It is found that the potential storage capacity in the Netherlands exceeds the requirement for storing any fuel, while the renewable power capacity planned for 2030 is insufficient to meet the demand. Under these conditions and assumptions, we find hydrogen to be the appropriate fuel for the Netherlands. |
