Hydrogen Production, Grid Integration, and Scaling for the Future

The project will explore near and long-term visions towards the commercialization of grid integrated electrolysis systems to inform deployment across the planning, procurement, and operation stages of hydrogen production on the grid. It will leverage NREL's state-of-the-art 1.25 MW polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) electrolyzer system to characterize system performance in relevant scenarios, also creating a digital twin for emulation in the Advanced Research on Integrated Energy Systems (ARIES) virtual environment and performing hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing of pilot scale, decentralized, and centralized hydrogen systems.

LTE Electrolyzer Data Collection

The goal for NREL is to collect, develop and publish performance metrics relative to low temperature electrolyzer installations. This will be done through the development of: Secure storage solution to house the collection of data from multiple projects Standardization of data to be collected and analyzed. This will be done using data templates developed with the help of partners involved with electrolyzer installations. Analysis that produces metrics of interest for all stakeholders Aggregation of results from multiple projects to view industry progress as a whole Publication of aggregated results in the form of composite data products (CDPs) Collaboration with Idaho National Lab and their work with high temperature electrolyzer installations will enable efficient use of storage and analysis tools.
