    摘要: The disclosure relates to a method for allocating electrical energy within an electrolysis plant for producing oxygen and hydrogen. The electrolysis plant comprises a system control device and at least two management apparatuses. Each management apparatus comprises at least one management control device and at least two electrolysis devices. The allocation method comprises method steps and method sequences by means of which the electrolysis process can be particularly advantageously controlled. Thus, a particularly flexible design of the electrolysis process can be implemented, while at the same time high efficiency and an extended service life of the individual components of the electrolysis plant are achieved. The flexible design of the electrolysis process is reflected especially in an expanded range of application of the electrolysis plant.

    摘要: An energy storage apparatus configured for storing electricity in a thermal form includes a containment body defining a storage space and having an inlet for a heat carrier fluid and an outlet for the fluid. The apparatus includes an electrical resistor positioned in the storage space, a pair of electrodes positioned at ends of the electrical resistor for being connected to an electricity supply network and a plurality of storage granules positioned for at least partly filling the storage space. The storage granules define a thermal storage mass configured to receive thermal energy from the electrical resistor and to release the thermal energy to the fluid flowing from the inlet to the outlet. The electrical resistor is at least partly made in a substantially granular form and at least some granules of the electric resistor are made with a doped semiconductor and/or with a intermetallic compound.

    摘要: A system includes an air compression train, a compressed air storage, an air expansion train, a heat management subsystem, and a power transmission subsystem. The heat management subsystem is configured to receive a heated heat transfer fluid flow and to provide a low-temperature heat transfer fluid flow to the air compression train from a low-temperature heat transfer fluid storage vessel. The heat management subsystem is coupled to the air expansion train and is configured to receive a cooled heat transfer fluid flow and to provide a high-temperature heat transfer fluid flow to the air expansion train from a high-temperature heat transfer fluid storage vessel. The heat management system is configured such that a first heat source is coupled to the high-temperature heat transfer fluid storage vessel.
