Power-to-gas, when hydrogen electrifies research

Description

Thanks to power-to-gas technology, hydrogen can be used to store electricity produced by intermittent renewable energies. Hydrogen is presented as an energy vector of the future. In a power-to-gas system, it serves as an intermediary for the transformation of electricity into synthetic methane. The success of this energy solution depends heavily on its production cost, so IMT researchers are working on optimizing the different processes for a more competitive power-to-gas solution.

Abstract (French)

Grace a la technologie power-to-gas, l'hydrogene permet de stocker l'electricite produite par les energies renouvelables intermittentes. L'hydrogene est presente comme un vecteur energetique d'avenir. Dans un systeme power-to-gas, il sert d'intermediaire a la transformation d'electricite en methane de synthese. Une solution energetique dont la reussite depend fortement de son cout de production. Dans ce cadre, les chercheurs de l'IMT s'attellent a l'optimisation des differents procedes pour un power-to-gas plus competitif.
