Harnessing Hydrogen: Integrating Renewable Energy in Coimbatore
Key Ideas
  • Hybrid power generation systems in Coimbatore are exploring the potential of hydrogen to enhance system flexibility and resiliency.
  • Electric vehicles are on the rise, with a focus on utilizing Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) operations to contribute to the main grid.
  • Optimal scheduling of sources is being emphasized to advance hydrogen-integrated transportation and power systems.
  • Applicants for the project require expertise in renewable energy, power electronics, drives, and proficiency in MATLAB.
The emerging field of hybrid power generation systems in Coimbatore is shining a spotlight on the role of hydrogen in enhancing system flexibility and resiliency. With a high penetration of renewable energy sources, hydrogen is seen as a promising energy carrier that can bolster the integrated power and transportation system. The increasing prevalence of Electric Vehicles (EVs) is also playing a significant role in this landscape. By implementing Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) operations, EVs are poised to not only serve as vehicles but also as potential contributors to the main grid, further emphasizing the synergy between transportation and power systems. One of the key strategies being pursued is the optimal scheduling of energy sources. By efficiently managing the sources, including hydrogen, Coimbatore aims to foster the integration of hydrogen into transportation and power systems, unlocking new possibilities for sustainable energy usage. The project, led by Dr. S. Parvathy from the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, highlights the importance of skillsets in renewable energy, power electronics, and proficiency in MATLAB for applicants looking to contribute to this cutting-edge field. Overall, the project not only underscores the growing importance of hydrogen in the energy landscape but also showcases Coimbatore's commitment to advancing innovative solutions that blend renewable energy sources with modern power systems.
