Power-to-X (P2X) technologies are gaining increasing attention in the digitalization of the energy sector. This is due to the special characteristics of these technologies, such as high energy consumption, flexibility in operation, and the capability to serve different sectors. In this paper, the recently introduced concept of operational digital platforms (ODPs) is adapted to the P2X technologies to facilitate their interactions with electricity markets (day-ahead and balancing markets) and manage waste heat reuse of these facilities. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed ODP, it is applied to three different P2X technologies, i.e., electrolysers, data centres, and heat pumps, and the results are discussed. The smart grid architecture model (SGAM) is also used to describe the focused zones and domains of the ODP in the smart grid architecture and its role in SGAM layers. Test results prove the proposed method’s success in managing the P2X plants’ operation.

摘要

Power-to-X (P2X) technologies are gaining increasing attention in the digitalization of the energy sector. This is due to the special characteristics of these technologies, such as high energy consumption, flexibility in operation, and the capability to serve different sectors. In this paper, the recently introduced concept of operational digital platforms (ODPs) is adapted to the P2X technologies to facilitate their interactions with electricity markets (day-ahead and balancing markets) and manage waste heat reuse of these facilities. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed ODP, it is applied to three different P2X technologies, i.e., electrolysers, data centres, and heat pumps, and the results are discussed. The smart grid architecture model (SGAM) is also used to describe the focused zones and domains of the ODP in the smart grid architecture and its role in SGAM layers. Test results prove the proposed method’s success in managing the P2X plants’ operation.
