Estimation of Wind Energy Resources in Regions of Russia for Green Hydrogen Production and Reduction of CO2 Emission

Abstract

The problem of hydrogen production using renewable energy sources in the world and in Russia is considered. Preliminary estimates of possible volumes of hydrogen production and of carbon dioxide emission reducing in the coastal regions of the North and East of Russia using wind power plants have been carried out. Based on the calculations of the wind characteristics variability over a 30-year period for the Sakhalin Peninsula, an analysis of possible interannual and within-year variability of the capacity factor was accomplish. Estimates of the prospects for reducing of CO2 emissions due to the potential for green hydrogen production using wind power plants energy as an alternative to fuel power plants in regions of Russia are completed.

“…The search, extraction, and processing of resources is one of the global tasks that mankind is addressing in the interests of sustainable development [1,2]. Today and in the coming decades, despite the rapid development of renewable energy [3], it is impossible to meet the energy needs of mankind without fossil fuels [4,5]. Russia plays one of the leading roles in ensuring the supply of energy resources to world markets, with permafrost occupying about 65% of the country's territory and a significant part of mineral deposits concentrated in the Russian Arctic [6][7][8].…”
