Hydrogen production in the Swedish power sector: Considering operational volatilities and long-term uncertainties

摘要: Abstract With more renewables on the Swedish electricity market, while decommissioning nuclear power plants, supply increasingly fluctuates and prices are volatile. There is, hence, a need for securing before energy storage solutions become widespread. Electricity price fluctuations, moreover, affect operating income of plants due to their inherent operational inflexibility. Since anticipated new applications hydrogen in fuel cell vehicles steel production, producing has potential source income, particularly when there is surplus at low prices. The feasibility investing production was investigated plant, applying policy as background. analysis applies system dynamics approach incorporating stochastic feature study revealed that brings alternative opportunities large-scale facilities Sweden. Factors such will be influential require in-depth investigation. This provides guidelines sector policymakers managers who plan engage industrial applications. Although this focused upon sources, it can extended from renewable sources wind solar.
