Renewable energy plants, such as wind and photovoltaic ones, improve greenhouse gases emissions raising, in the same time, the problem of energy production interruptions because they are not programmable. Especially in renewable plants, production and consume are not aligned in time resulting in overproduction peaks. One possible solution to bypass this problem is hydrogen produced by renewable sources electrolytic cell. The obtained hydrogen is stored in solid form and can be used as zero-emission fuel both in mobility sector and in other industrial sectors (fertilizers, etc.). The aim of this paper is to highlight the environmental performances generated by hydrogen storage facility located in Troia - Apulia region, through the life cycle assessment (LCA) realized in the framework of a European project titled INGRID (High Capacity Hydrogen Based on green energy storage solutions for network balancing) co-financed by the European Union.

Abstract: | Renewable energy plants, such as wind and photovoltaic ones, improve greenhouse gases emissions raising, in the same time, the problem of energy production interruptions because they are not programmable. Especially in renewable plants, production and consume are not aligned in time resulting in overproduction peaks. One possible solution to bypass this problem is hydrogen produced by renewable sources electrolytic cell. The obtained hydrogen is stored in solid form and can be used as zero-emission fuel both in mobility sector and in other industrial sectors (fertilizers, etc.).
