Connection of Electrolyser plant

A comprehensive feasibility study was conducted to assess the impact of connecting a large-scale hydrogen production facility to an existing high-voltage grid. The analysis, based on future grid models and detailed plant data, indicated that the facility, with a 215 MW load, would not adversely affect the grid's stability or operational performance. Key findings included minimal voltage impact, manageable transformer and line loadings, and no significant increase in fault levels. The study also confirmed that the connection would not destabilize the system and that harmonic distortions would remain within acceptable limits if specified filters are installed.

Connection of Ammonia Plant

The capacity of the Angolan power grid to accommodate significant power demands from a planned Ammonia plant was evaluated. The analysis, encompassing steady state, contingency, and short circuit evaluations, determined the grid's ability to integrate up to 400 MW by 2027 and up to 800 MW by 2030. The results showed that integrating a 450 MW Ammonia plant in 2027 could be achieved without requiring additional grid enhancements, as no voltage or thermal issues were detected, and fault levels remained within safe margins.

Optimization of Green Ammonia Project

This project required optimization of the installed capacities of renewable energy sources, battery storage systems, and green hydrogen/ammonia production facilities in response to varying demand scenarios for hydrogen and ammonia, with a connection to the power grid. Go2Power developed a PLEXOS database to run multiple scenarios and models, examining various capacity options for wind and solar farms, along with battery energy storage systems (BESS), and other facilities, within an off-grid and on-grid network. This system also integrates electrolyzers, ammonia production plants, and hydrogen and ammonia storage systems.

Developing User-Defined Model of Electrolyser Power Plant

Go2Power developed a user-defined model of an electrolysis power plant as an open RMS model in DIgSILENT PowerFactory, focusing on a network study model for one array of the Silyzer 300 electrolysis plant. This model comprises a 24 MVA supply transformer, four identical rectifiers, and four DC electrolysis loads.The preparation of this detailed model was crucial for accurately simulating the plant's performance and understanding its integration into the broader energy system. As electrolysis plays a vital role in hydrogen production and the transition to renewable energy sources, developing user-defined models in modern energy software tools is essential. These models enable engineers to customize simulations to reflect specific technologies and configurations, facilitating more precise analyses of system behavior, operational efficiency, and the potential impacts on grid stability.

Gas and Water Company - PLEXOS Implementation

End game was creating a robust PLEXOS database for the national gas and water authority, ensuring its accuracy through thorough verification against historical operations. From this verified foundation, we’ve executed a series of critical tasks: optimized day-ahead unit commitment, and conducted short-term dispatch studies through 2030. We’ve assessed the impact of introducing storage technologies, explored innovative supply and demand alternatives, and conducted long-term expansion studies up to 2050. Our work also includes evaluating operational reserve requirements and performing reliability calculations for solar PV and CSP capacity credits. To enhance usability, we've adjusted the PLEXOS database for day-ahead dispatch and led comprehensive workshops to train staff on PLEXOS. This multifaceted approach ensures a future-ready energy management system!

Co-Optimization of Electrical and Gas Supply/Transport Agreements

For this project we developed a comprehensive PLEXOS database that features both electrical and gas systems, incorporating essential inputs for electricity generation and transmission networks, as well as for the gas network - including gas inlet and outlet points. We established a robust framework for data input, facilitating yearly, monthly, and daily gas nominations. The outputs generated include gas supply nominations, pipeline balance, storage utilization, and transport charges.To enhance efficiency, we automated the preparation of input data using custom Python code, streamlining the process and ensuring accuracy. This project not only optimizes gas nominations but also supports effective management of gas supply and transport agreements, ultimately contributing to a more integrated and reliable energy system. Our work reinforces our commitment to providing innovative solutions in power systems and energy management.
