Abstract
As a hopeful solution to help the shipping sector achieve the greenhouse gas (GHG) abatement goal of the IMO by 2050, the application of hydrogen-powered ships has attracted more and more attention. To solve the problem of hydrogen supplement for offshore polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) ships, this paper presents a scenario design for the integrated application of coastal hydrogen-powered ships and offshore wind power, and analyzes its techno-economic feasibility. This model concept considers the problems in offshore hydrogen transportation and offshore wind power development together. It provides a feasible integrated scheme and operation mode for the combination of offshore wind power and hydrogen energy storage. A transformation scheme is also provided for the marine ranch ships, and these PEMFC-powered ships are combined with the hydrogen production of offshore wind farms. The analysis results show that the integrated utilization model is economically feasible and with a significant effect on decarbonization. It also shows great potential for further expansion to other coastal areas.
