In this regard, innovative hybrid energy systems, such as “Power to Gas” (P2G) and “Power to Liquid” (P2L) options, as well as novel integration strategies for “Gas to Power” (G2P) systems, offer the opportunity to implement solutions energy transition, paving the way to offshore RES deployment.
Hybrid Energy Systems for Offshore Applications
delivers a comprehensive presentation of state of the art and perspective developments of offshore RES exploitation strategies and technologies, and provides a unique portfolio of decision-making methodologies supporting the selection of the most suitable options for offshore renewable energy production at a specific site. System modeling and analysis along with the definitions of multicriteria methodologies and strategies based on sustainability, environmental impact, and safety performance indicators are addressed in an integrated fashion. Rounding out with both research and practical applications explained, this book gives academicians and industrial professionals fundamentals and methods for integrated performance analysis of innovative systems addressing offshore RES exploitation, sustainable chemical and power production, better efficiency, lower costs, lower environmental impact, and higher inherent safety.- Harmonized presentation of RESs
