Abstract: | In order to comply to the ambitious targets of European Hydrogen Strategy, Member States will strongly encourage the deployment of Power-to-Gas (PtG) technologies. A significant fraction of produced green hydrogen will be injected into the existing natural gas networks, and the end-users will be served by Hydrogen enriched Natural Gas blends (H2NG). The aim of this paper is to analyse the H2NG effects on technical, economic and environmental parameters of hybrid energy systems for building refurbishment. Three hybrid energy systems for the existing plants replacement have been proposed, dynamically simulated and compared with the separate generation. Fuel supply has been simulated by varying the H2 volumetric fraction in a range between 0 and 20%vol. The H2NG blend employment will allow greater primary energy savings and avoided emissions. However, if the levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH) due to electrolysis does not decrease, those benefits will be offset by a lower economic competitiveness. |
