Is chemical storage a promising option for long term storage of energy?
With respect to these observations, the chemical storage is one of the promising options for long term storage of energy. From all these previous studies, this paper presents a complete evaluation of the energy (section 2) and economic (section 3) costs for the four selected fuels: H 2, NH 3, CH 4, and CH 3 OH.
Why are different storage costs considered?
Different storage costs are considered because of the different chemical properties of each fuel. In this work, the efficiency of the conversion to electricity is set at 43% (Stock and Bauder, 1990) for these four fuels. Depending on the nature of the fuel and the technical process of restitution, this efficiency can be improved.
What is the cheapest storage technology?
Mechanical storage (CAES and PHES) presents a good round-trip efficiency with a reasonable storage cost. The Power-to-X storage is the cheapest with its low LCOES. Such a storage technology is therefore pertinent and to consider when huge energy quantities are to be stored, although the overall efficiency is quite low (40%). Table 1.
How much does it cost to transport hydrogen?
Hydrogen in gas phase transported by pipeline is evaluated at 492 €/MWh H2, and 239 €/MWh H2 in liquid phase (in a truck). Storage of hydrogen in gas phase is the most expensive part of the process. This cost is due to the huge volume of storage required for 1 kg of hydrogen gas. The total cost of ammonia is moderate at 261 €/MWh NH3, by pipeline.
