While the establishment of a huge green hydrogen plant that will produce with solar and wind power in the Inner Mongolia location has been approved by China, the facility will produce 66,900 tons of green hydrogen per year with 1.85 gigawatts of solar power and 370 megawatts of wind power capacity.

While the project is scheduled to begin in October and be operational by mid-2021, the plant needs at least 465 megawatts of electrolyzer to produce said quantities of hydrogen.

Researchers can currently test tens of thousands of potential catalysts a year but Facebook and Carniegie Mellon believe they can increase the number to millions, or even billions, of catalysts with the help of AI.

Electrocatalysts can be used to convert excess solar and wind power into other fuels, such as hydrogen and ethanol, that are easier to store. However, today’s electrocatalysts are rare and expensive, with platinum being a good example, and finding new ones hasn’t been easy as there are billions of ways that elements can be combined to make them.

Battery storage systems are emerging as one of the key solutions to effectively integrate high shares of solar and wind renewables in power systems worldwide. A recent analysis from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) illustrates how electricity storage technologies can be used for a variety of applications in the power sector, from e-mobility and behind-the-meter applications to utility-scale use cases.

Utility-scale batteries, for example, can enable a greater feed-in of renewables into the grid by storing excess generation and by firming renewable energy output.
