摘要: A power plant comprises a steam system, a first electrolyzer, a heat storage system, and a heat exchanger configured to exchange thermal energy between the steam system, the first electrolyzer and the heat storage system. A method of operating an electrolyzer in a combined cycle power plant comprises operating a steam system to convert water to steam, operating an electrolyzer in a standby mode, the electrolyzer configured to convert water and electricity to hydrogen and oxygen when the electrolyzer is in an operating mode, circulating water from the steam system through a heat exchanger, circulating a first heat transfer medium between the electrolyzer and the heat exchanger, and circulating a second heat transfer medium between the heat exchanger and a thermal storage container.

摘要: A system for drying hydrogen in a hydrogen production facility comprises an electrolyzer for producing a flow of hydrogen gas, a drying device configured to remove moisture from the flow of hydrogen gas, a compressor configured to receive the flow of hydrogen gas from the drying device, and a recirculation line connected to output of the compressor to recirculate at least a portion of the flow of hydrogen gas from the compressor to the drying device. A method of drying hydrogen in a hydrogen production facility comprises producing a flow of hydrogen gas with an electrolyzer, drying the flow of hydrogen gas with a drying device, compressing the flow of hydrogen gas from the drying device with a compressor, and recirculating at least a portion of the flow of hydrogen gas from the compressor to the drying device to maintain pressure distribution within the drying device.
