Hydrogen and prospects of hydrogen energy

Abstract

Purpose. substantiating the need to implement hydrogen storage stations for more effective decentralization of the state's energy sector. Research methodology. To achieve the goal, a comprehensive review of the state of the electric power industry of Ukraine from the point of view of energy accumulation and the use of hydrogen as a renewable source of kinetic energy was carried out, taking into account the real indicators of the energy system of Ukraine. The results. Based on the results of the study, it was established that hydrogen energy can play a key role in the sustainable development of the energy sector in Ukraine. For further post-war reconstruction and transition to a new, higher-quality level of the energy sector, our country will need industrial technologies for storing electricity. According to technical and economic indications, it is advisable to develop hydrogen production technologies on an industrial scale based on decentralized and centralized production technologies, since increasing the use of low-carbon energy is necessary for sustainable growth. Scientific novelty consists in the systematization and scientific validity of the conditions for the effective creation of regulatory systems in the energy sector of Ukraine based on pneumatic storage stations using hydrogen as a carrier of kinetic energy. Practical value. The obtained results determine the main ways of the future introduction of hydrogen accumulators at the industrial level to balance the energy system of Ukraine by accumulating excess energy produced in off-peak hours or at the minimum capacity of loads in the network. for more effective decentralization of the energy sector of the state.
