| contents | Hydrogen plays an important role in the context of global carbon reduction. For an off-grid renewable power to hydrogen system (OReP2HS), a grid-forming (GFM) source is essential to provide frequency and voltage references. Here, we take battery works as a GFM source, and the OReP2HS we focus on is comprised of solar photovoltaic, wind turbines, and alkaline electrolyzers for hydrogen generation. An elaborative full-time scale energy management strategy (EMS) covers GFM control to system scheduling (from milliseconds to hours) and is proposed to support high-precision production simulations. Loads of electrolysers are designed to track the renewable power closely to partly replace the energy balancing requirement of the battery. A continuous operation strategy during an emergency like a unit drop is also included in the presented EMS. An off-line simulation-based iterative searching algorithm is developed to find the most suitable size of the battery with the minimum levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH). A practical OReP2H project located in Inner Mongolian, China is taken as a case study. Simulation results demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed method, and the optimized capacity of the battery (3.4MWh) only accounts for 13.6% of the total installed capacity of the sources with the proposed EMS. Sensitivity analysis shows that LOCH rises from 28.829 CYN/kg to 37.814 CYN/kg, with the time-step for fast power regulation of electrolysers changing from 4s to 1 min with a ramp rate of 0.05MW/s. |
