Solution: Storage of excess wind power instead of curtailment
Falkenhagen in Brandenburg region
� Increasing excess power
� Huge peak power
� Steep power gradients

Power supply
� Power: 2 MWel
� Hydrogen production: 360 m³/h
� Feed into the local gas grid (ONTRAS)
� Start of operation 28 Aug. 2013
� Concentration H2 : max 2%
� In partnership with Swissgas AG
Key Parameters
Control
Goals� Demonstration of the process chain
� Optimize operational concept (fluctuating
power from wind vs. changing gas feed)
� Gain experience in technology, costs,
consenting
� Establish a new WindGas product
Falkenhagen: From planning to operations in 12 months
in cooperation with Swissgas

Falkenhagen: In operation since 28th of Aug. 2013
What we will learn is about
� availability
� efficiency
� dynamics
� acceptance
� market for H2� potential for improvement

Example Project Hydor: Demonstrator for solid
storage of hydrogen in France
• Location: E.ON France thermal power plant site Emile Huchet in
Lorraine region
• Demonstration: Evaluation of performance and flexibility for solid
storage of hydrogen (McPhy) in an industrial environment
• Storage capacity 5kg H2
• Project duration: 6 months

Summary
• Increasing need to integrate renewable
energy leads to the interconnection between
power, gas and heat system.
• Power to Gas can provide both, storage
services for the power market and the
integration of renewable power into mobility,
industry and heating.
• Today, the major levers to push the
development are
• Reduction of technology costs
• Exemption from end consumer fees
• Favorable regulation for green hydrogen

Draft: For Discussion
� Development of high efficient
Proton exchange membrane
electrolysis (PEM with 80% eff.)
� Demonstration within E.ON
infrastructure
� Business development
Idea
Example: „WindGas Hamburg“
Demonstration of advanced power to gas technology
� Power: 1 MWel, 265 m³/h hydrogen
� Public funding from BMVI
� Partners: Hydrogenics, SolviCore,
DLR, Fraunhofer ISE
� Fed into the local gas grid of Hamburg
� Planned start of operation Q4/2014
