Areas of application for highly mobile hydrogen refuelling

Areas of application for highly mobile, construction site-compatible hydrogen refuelling at locations with no or insufficient refuelling and charging infrastructure.

Design example for a highly mobile hydrogen refuelling station

Functionality of highly mobile hydrogen refuelling using the example of the MAX Mobile Refueler from Maximator: (1) The refuelling vehicle is refuelled at the public 700 bar truck filling station. (2) The already compressed hydrogen is brought to the machine by the transport vehicle. (3) Hydrogen is refuelled into the machine in a few minutes using a displacement principle with low energy input, whereby the highly mobile filling device is driven by the machine to be refuelled.

Distribution of the ion current density in the membrane of the aged cell, expressed as a percentage compared to the initial state. This provides a detailed insight into the current distribution within the cell.

Graphical representation of the assessment across a range of different storage technologies

Comparison of various parameters (storage capacity, TRL, efficiency, cost, safety and commercial availability) for the storage technologies under consideration. These include liquid hydrogen, compressed hydrogen, organic hydrogen carriers, metal hydrides, ammonia, but also redox flow and lithium-based battery systems, pumped storage and chemical looping hydrogen (HyLoop).

Concept of surfactant-doped polyaniline coating for gas diffusion layers

PTFE-free hydrophobisation and improved electrical conductivity: Surface-active species consisting of non-polar, negatively charged terminal groups and apolar residues attach themselves to the positively charged PANI framework, which ensures electrical conductivity.

Test cell for gas diffusion electrodes as a bridging tool between basic and applied research in the field of PEFC.

New CCU/CCS value chains

Project-based analysis of new CCU and CCS value chains using a canvas.

Visibility and Obervability of distribution grid assets and grid status

One challenge for the use of decentralized flexibility is the current lack of visibility of the systems and the lack of observability in the distribution grid, as well as the lack of real-time information on the topology of the distribution grid itself. These problems make it difficult to verify the actual need for flexibility as well as to validate or measure the flexibility provided.

Data exchange between different stakeholders as a challenge

The energy system data and the data exchange between transmission and distribution system operators, as well as suppliers and aggregators, are currently only sufficient to a limited extent to enable an appropriate provision of flexibility services.

Validation environment for the SVP EN 50549-10 test scripts at AIT

Illustration of the test setup at AIT that was used to validate the test scripts that were developed within the SIRFN. The setup consists of a real-time simulation system that is connected to the controller board of the AIT Smart grid Converter.

Organisation of the SIRFN network and technical topics in the project period 2021-2023

Overview of the organisation of the SIRFN network: The work programme for Annex 5 approved by the ISGAN Executive Committee (ExCo), the decision-making body within ISGAN, is divided into two sections, one dealing with the dissemination and exchange of knowledge and the other with the implementation of concrete projects for the further development of the research infrastructure.
