Abstract

The paper presents the project of the autonomous power complex on the basis of wind-power plant and hydrogen module with a capacity in 3 kW with further replication to 50 kW and shows the possibilities of operation of the present plant in different climatic conditions of Russia: Siberia, the Far East, the Northern Caucasus, Krasnodar territory, and also for universal use in climatic zones of the Arctic and Antarctic, deserts of Africa and the isolated islands with typical destructive sea salt fogs.This paper carries out the study, comprehensive analysis and comparison of known types and classes of wind plants, as a result of which the authors have developed an innovative multi-tier scalable vertically-axial wind power plant. This unit is used as the main power source, the uninterrupted part of which is based on a cyclically operating hydrogen module, contains an electrolytic cell, a fuel cell system and a hydrogen storage device with a communication and control system. The components of the power plant developed by the authors’ team operate at a single DC voltage and can be connected to a common bus bar with an increase of power in this complex. Flexible control algorithms allow optimizing the operation of the power complex to reduce the start-stop frequency, thereby increasing both the service life and time intervals between maintenance. Remote control provides monitoring and management of electricity output processes and hydrogen storage with the help of Internet technologies in long-term modes.The study has shown that this equipment is long-lived, reliable and environmentally friendly, and the system is modular and flexible because it is easily scaled under consumer’s control including the personal power consumption and small business. Moreover, the developed power plant is accessible in purchase, mounting and operation for remote energy consumers as far as the assessed value of equipment is correlating with the cost of power line installation and the operation of equipment does not require large engineering and technological skills.
