"Linking the power and transport sectors-Part 1" describes the general principle of "sector coupling" (SC), develops a working definition intended of the concept to be of utility to the international scientific community, contains a literature review that provides an overview of relevant scientific papers on this topic and conducts a rudimentary analysis of the linking of the power and transport sectors on a worldwide, EU and German level. The aim of this follow-on paper is to outline an approach to the modelling of SC. Therefore, a study of Germany as a case study was conducted. This study assumes a high share of renewable energy sources (RES) contributing to the grid and significant proportion of fuel cell vehicles (FCVs) in the year 2050, along with a dedicated hydrogen pipeline grid to meet hydrogen demand. To construct a model of this nature, the model environment "METIS" (models for energy transformation and integration systems) we developed will be described in more detail in this paper. Within this framework, a detailed model of the power and transport sector in Germany will be presented in this paper and the rationale behind its assumptions described. Furthermore, an intensive result analysis for the power surplus, utilization of electrolysis, hydrogen pipeline and economic considerations has been conducted to show the potential outcomes of modelling SC. It is hoped that this will serve as a basis for researchers to apply this framework in future to models and analysis with an international focus.

“…{Energy and Exergy} (9) The basis for establishing the energy, exergy, and environment nexus is provided by the exergy magnitude Ex, which is based on εsup and magnitude of thermal energy Qsup (Equation (9)), REMM efficiency (see Equations (10) and (11)) and CO2 emissions (see Equations (12) and (13)), respectively. The latter formulations are based on REMM in which a mismatch in the supply and demand of exergy is linked to additional primary energy spending in the energy system and related CO2 emissions [34].…”

“…This is instrumental for reducing available CO2 emission impacts in the energy supply due to any need to re-supply primary energy resources. Equation (12) defines the compound CO2 emissions, which includes avoidable emissions due to exergy destruction in a process as represented by the term (1 − ψR) [34]: …”

Abstract:The energy base of urban settlements requires greater integration of renewable energy sources. This study presents a "hydrogen city" model with two cycles at the district and building levels. The main cycle comprises of hydrogen gas production, hydrogen storage, and a hydrogen distribution network. The electrolysis of water is based on surplus power from wind turbines and third-generation solar photovoltaic thermal panels. Hydrogen is then used in central fuel cells to meet the power demand of urban infrastructure. Hydrogen-enriched biogas that is generated from city wastes supplements this approach. The second cycle is the hydrogen flow in each low-exergy building that is connected to the hydrogen distribution network to supply domestic fuel cells. Make-up water for fuel cells includes treated wastewater to complete an energy-water nexus. The analyses are supported by exergy-based evaluation metrics. The Rational Exergy Management Efficiency of the hydrogen city model can reach 0.80, which is above the value of conventional district energy systems, and represents related advantages for CO 2 emission reductions. The option of incorporating low-enthalpy geothermal energy resources at about 80 • C to support the model is evaluated. The hydrogen city model is applied to a new settlement area with an expected 200,000 inhabitants to find that the proposed model can enable a nearly net-zero exergy district status. The results have implications for settlements using hydrogen energy towards meeting net-zero targets.

“…The low-cost and low-emissions off-peak surplus electricity is converted into hydrogen, which is used through different methods by going to the industrial applications or transportation [11]. If the hydrogen is not required immediately, it is stored for later use, including the potential for seasonal storage, which is especially interesting for power generation systems with a large amount of power [12]. Moreover, hydrogen can be injected into the natural gas network considering a maximum volume concentration [13].…”
