Conceptual design of ammonia‐based energy storage system: System design and time‐invariant performance

Abstract: in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com)Chemicals-based energy storage is promising for integrating intermittent renewables on the utility scale. High roundtrip efficiency, low cost, and considerable flexibility are desirable. To this end, an ammonia-based energy storage system is proposed. It utilizes a pressurized reversible solid-oxide fuel cell for power conversion, coupled with external ammonia synthesis and decomposition processes and a steam power cycle. A coupled refrigeration cycle is utilized… Show more

“…A finite and depleting supply of fossil resources, as well as a desire for increased sustainability of fertilizer production have motivated the idea of producing ammonia using renewable energy. Additionally, ammonia has the potential as an energy-dense, carbon neutral liquid fuel, which, when made using renewables, could be used in various applications such as long-term energy storage or transportation to further reduce carbon intensity [4,5]. A proposed production pathway for renewable ammonia is to use electricity generated from renewable sources such as wind or solar to obtain hydrogen from electrolysis, nitrogen from air and to power the ammonia synthesis process itself.…”

“…Reese et al show technical feasibility of a lab‐scale Haber‐Bosch process driven by intermittent wind power. Millet, Petipas et al and Mougin investigate transient operability of electrolyzers, such as proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzer and solid oxide electrolyzer (SOE), and report no additional degradation on the stack level; (b) on the process level, we propose an ammonia‐based energy storage process involving the usage of a reversible high‐temperature solid‐oxide fuel cell. Chen et al present a novel design of an ammonia synthesis system for a solar thermochemical energy storage system.…”
