Efficiency of the power-to-gas-to-liquid-to-power system based on green methanol
TL;DR: In this article , the authors analyzed a system consisting of a renewable energy source, hydrogen generator, methanol generator, and Direct Methanol Fuel Cell, and derived the overall system energy efficiency based on the efficiencies of the hydrogen generator.

Hydrogen generator characteristics for storage of renewably-generated energy
TL;DR: In this paper, a methodology for determining the efficiency of a hydrogen generator taking the power requirements of its auxiliary systems into account was presented, and the results were used for analyses of a Power-to-Gas system cooperating with a 40MW wind farm with a known yearly power distribution.

Analysis of component operation in power-to-gas-to-power installations
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present results of research into hydrogen generators and fuel cells (basic elements in Power-to-Gas-toPower systems) together with an economic analysis of this installation type.

Experimental and numerical investigations of the averaging Pitot tube and analysis of installation effects on the flow coefficient
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used computational fluid dynamics to obtain the location of flow separation and the differential pressure between ports of the annubar of an averaging Pitot tube, where mesh concentration, turbulence models and turbulence intensity level at the inlet were taken into consideration.

Analysis of the work of a “renewable” methanol production installation based ON H2 from electrolysis and CO2 from power plants
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented a thermodynamic analysis of a system for producing renewable methanol from H2 generated from electrolysis, fed by surplus energy from a 40MW wind farm WF during the night valleys and from CO2 captured from a power plant's flue gas.
