Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods to forecast changes in renewable energy availability to maximize hydrogen production by electrolysis systems over a period of renewable energy availability. The present disclosure relates to a method of utilizing variable energy including using a look-ahead forecast model, which provides an assessment of available renewable energy. The present disclosure relates to a method of operating of one or more electrolyzer cell stacks in an electrolysis system to produce hydrogen by using the look-ahead forecast model in real-time.

Abstract: An electrolyser operates within an energy system, for example to provide grid services, energy storage or fuel, or to produce hydrogen from electricity produced from renewable resources. The electrolyser may be configured to operate at frequently or quickly varying rates of electricity consumption or to operate at a specified power consumption. In one process of operating an electrolyser, a series of dispatches is received indicating a specified power consumption for a period of time. The dispatches may occur at least once every 30 minutes. The electrolyser is operated according to the dispatches. Hydrogen produced by the electrolyser is discharged to a natural gas system.
