4 Emanuel Wagner Contest Overview

5 The Challenge Develop a design for a system that uses electricity to produce hydrogen for cross market uses, including energy storage, ancillary services, and transportation fuel. The teams will choose a site in their area, engage their local electric and gas utility, coordinate with regulatory bodies and safety experts, and create educational materials, including a short video. 5

6 Thank you to our 2017 Contest Sponsors And these supporting organizations:

7 Main Feedback Many teams have selected a scope far too big for the amount of time left to complete the project. Therefore: Down selecting and focusing on one or at most two technologies to research would make the projects more manageable.

9 Innovation POWER-TO-GAS Project Abstract Reviews 9

10 You must have a strong value proposition» What problem are you trying to solve?» Why is power-to-gas the right solution?» Where will the gas go?» How will the project generate revenue? Source: California Independent System Operator (CAISO) 10

11 Focus the scope of your project There are many possible P2G pathways Pick 1 or 2.» Consider a primary pathway with a secondary option:» Produce hydrogen for an on-site industrial use AND» Store some of the H2 for vehicle fueling. 11

12 The components must be» Gas supply and gas demand must be connected somehow:» Co-located» Pipeline» Liquefied truck transport connected

13 Power-to-Gas PROJECT SITING AND CONFIGURATION 13

14 Project Siting Considerations Feedstocks: Electricity Access to renewable power Access to ancillary services markets Water CO 2 Source: Waste water treatment plant Landfill Other anaerobic digester Conversion Pathway: Electrolysis: Water Hydrogen Methanation: Hydrogen and CO 2 Methane P2G Project Location End Use: Pipeline: Blending (H 2 ) Injection (Methane) On-site Vehicle Fueling On-site Storage/Re-Use (Fuel Cell) On-site/Nearby Industry: Petroleum Refining Ammonia Production Glass Blowing Metals Refining 14

15 Additional Considerations» Ancillary Services Markets: Dispatchable Load Load Following Frequency/Voltage Regulation» Pipeline Injection Standards: SoCalGas Rule 30 Hydrogen Blend Limits» Green Credits CA Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) Cap & Trade Credits US Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) 15
