Hydrogen Deployment Strategies With a Nuclear-Renewable Hybrid Energy System: Simulation for the evaluation of hydrogen deployment within nuclear-renewable systems.

There is an increasing need to assess the potential deployment of hydrogen strategies. Implementing nuclear-renewable hybrid energy systems (N-RHESs) has demonstrated a practical solution to meet large energy demands. This article examines hydrogen deployment strategies within N-RHESs. Two scenarios are discussed in which hydrogen deployments are assessed and rationalized for their potential implementations, utilizing small modular reactors integrated with renewable energy systems. This will serve as a proposal for further research to unlock more deployment strategies for hydrogen within N-RHESs, with verified benefits for grid stability, improved energy storage, and industrial decarbonization.
