Through the whole process of green hydrogen coupling chemical industry with digital solutions

At the meeting, in the keynote speech of “Digital technology Application in Green electricity, hydrogen, ammonia and ammonia integration project”, Gong Dain, digital solution manager of Schneider Electric, pointed out: “The volatility and intermittency of renewable energy and high energy loss are the two major challenges in the production and consumption process of the current wind green electricity and hydrogen chemical project. In order to achieve the balance of investment and output benefits while taking into account production safety and continuity, enterprises need to improve the upstream and downstream adaptability of the (green) electrical end, the (green) hydrogen end, chemical and other processes, and achieve dynamic balance by realizing the coupling and linkage between the end-to-end process equipment. On the other hand, 8440-2085
energy use needs to be optimised at every stage of the green hydrogen supply chain to improve overall energy efficiency by reducing redundancy from renewables, reducing overall unit emissions.”

As the first digital solution provider in the industry to realize the linkage of power and process, Schneider Electric integrates independent digital systems such as power generation, energy storage, solar power generation, hydrogen production and ammonia synthesis based on the integrated design and operation digital overall solution that runs through the whole scene of energy “source grid charge and storage” and “green hydrogen and green chemical industry”. The overall design and cooperative operation and maintenance of green, electric, green, hydrogen and green chemical industry are realized from the five dimensions of horizontal, vertical, temporal, dynamic and combined.• 8440-2085
Horizontal: Schneider Electric’s AVEVA Process Simulation (APS) process digital twin platform can model and simulate the whole process of green electrohydroamine, including generation/transmission, hydrogen production process and chemical synthesis, covering the whole production process from electrohydrogen coupling to hydrogenation (industrial) coupling.

8440-2085 

• To meet the needs of electrolytic cell production, energy consumption and cluster control, Schneider Electric provides digital solutions covering hardware equipment, microgrids and (process-end) plant-wide DCS, which can meet the green and intelligent upgrade of three application levels from interconnected products to edge control, and then to application, analysis and service.
• With the digital twin of process production processes based on the production process mechanism, Schneider Electric helps companies break down data silos and workflows through the integration of simulation, integrated engineering, digital delivery, construction and 8440-2085
material management, achieving consistency and optimization from design, construction, operation and maintenance.
• Dynamic: Using digital twin simulation technology, enterprises can model multiple dynamic scenarios, including weather, equipment, processes, etc., by determining the current state and predicting future trends, so as to optimize decisions, and achieve integration, foresight, autonomy, and comprehensiveness of design and operation.
• Combined: By combining the AVEVA Process Simulation process digital twin platform with the ETAP electrical system digital twin platform, Schneider Electric extends the integration of “process + power” from the design end to the operation end, helping customers achieve global safety collaboration and efficiency improvement from process control to power energy management.
