Description
Summary:In order to make an electric power of renewable energy source increase, development of a new transmission network is effective. However, it is because installation of a new transmission network takes a huge investment, operating technique regarding improvement of the utilization factor of a transmission network is investigated. On the other hand, stabilization of distribution electric power by hydrogen energy careers, such as ammonia or methyl-cyclohexane (MCH) is expected to contribute to the drastic increase in utilization factor of the transmission network. Moreover, because these hydrogen energy careers can store electric power, it is effective in making the reliability of the transmission network increase. The energy flow of the system accompanied by use of each energy career of ammonia or MCH is clarified, the examination method of the utilization factor of the transmission network with the electric power leveling by the hydrogen career was proposed. The proposal analysis method is applied to a transmission network of Wakkanai, the relation between the amount of introduction of renewable energy and the utilization factor of the transmission network, and the utilization factor of the transmission network using a hydrogen career were clarified.
