Electrical infrastructure for the hydrogen industry

This application manual is provided to you by Totally Integrated Power – Support in planning & concept drafting of electric power distribution systems.

The ecosystem of "green" hydrogen opens up promising prospects for the development of a sustainable, CO2-neutral circular economy. The planning and design of a sustainable, efficient and reliable power supply system play a key role in this. This application manual presents relevant planning aspects for the conception and design of the electrical network of an industrial hydrogen production plant whose electricity requirements are covered purely by renewable energy sources (green electricity). Practical plant examples are used to demonstrate viable system solutions using Siemens products.

Highlights of this new edition:

- Applications of hydrogen in industry and transportation

- Electrolyzer technologies and key applications

- Market potential and cost structure of green hydrogen projects

- Structure and design of the power supply network

- Grid structure, supply principle

- Grid quality, grid protection concept

- Coupled energy and process automation for maximum energy and system efficiency

- Pre-assembled and pre-tested modular power substation from Siemens (E-Houses)

- Customer benefits of SIMARIS planning tools and application in the BIM construction process
