DOE’s Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management has determined that long-duration energy storage solutions co-located with fossil energy assets offer significant benefits to the fossil industry, electric utilities, and customers. T2M Global has developed an Advanced O₂-Free Electrolyzer System (AES) Technology for low-cost, long-duration H₂ energy storage for fossil plants. The MW-class AES Module conceptual design aims to upgrade stranded assets (dilute/waste syngas streams, excess electricity, and waste heat) at fossil plants to higher value H₂ for additional revenue and greater sustainability. The H₂ energy storage equips fossil plants with the load following capability needed for the lucrative grid-support services market created by Variable Renewable Energy resources.
