Systems, devices, and methods for producing and storing hydrogen energy are described. Hydrogen energy may be produced and distributed according to a tiered consumption system, such that consumption requirements of a first tier are prioritized over a second tier and third tier, respectively. Energy and hydrogen for this system may be produced by one or more fuel cell/electrolyzers, and produced hydrogen may be stored in one or more hydride storage tanks.

Various embodiments of systems and methods for a smart hydrogen injection controller are disclosed herein. The system produces hydrogen and oxygen from a Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) electrolyzer and injects these gases individually into a combustion engine using port injection or direct injection at each cylinder of the combustion engine. In one aspect, varying the ratio of hydrogen to oxygen works to improve the operation of the internal combustion engine to decrease emissions and increase combustion efficiency.

A method for controlling hydrogen combustion in a hydrogen internal combustion engine system includes a combustion chamber linked to an intake port via an intake valve, the hydrogen internal combustion engine system comprising a piston slidably moving between a top dead center position and a bottom dead center position, characterized by the steps of: injecting water in liquid phase in the intake port when the piston is between 0 and 40 crank angle degrees before opening of the intake valve, injecting hydrogen after opening of the intake valve and when the piston is between 0 and 60 crank angle degrees after the top dead center position, stopping hydrogen injection when the piston is between 0 and 100 crank angle degrees before the bottom dead center position.

The invention provides a cogeneration system capable of adjusting a heat-to-electric power ratio not only in an increasing direction, but also in a decreasing direction. The cogeneration system includes: a power generation device configured to supply electric power; a first heat exchanger configured to exchange heat between exhaust of the power generation device and water, so as to lower a temperature of the exhaust and obtain steam from the water; a reformer configured to generate a reformed gas by the steam reacting with a fuel; a second heat exchanger configured to cool the reformed gas generated by the reformer by heat exchanging; a reformed gas supply device configured to supply the reformed gas cooled by the second heat exchanger to the power generation device; a distributor configured to supply the steam to at least one of the reformer and a heat utilization device; and a control device configure to adjust a heat-to-electric power ratio by changing a supply destination of the steam in the distributor.

A method for operation of an industrial plant having an energy accumulator unit for production of synthetic natural gas, a power plant unit for production of electricity, an oxygen tank, a carbon dioxide tank and a water tank. In a first operation mode the energy accumulator unit is supplied with excessed electricity from the public grid to produce synthetic natural gas, wherein the produced synthetic natural gas is discharged in a gas network, while oxygen and water which are produced together with the synthetic natural gas are stored in the oxygen tank and the water tank correspondingly. In a second operation mode gas from the gas network together with oxygen from the oxygen tank and water from the water tank are used in the power plant unit to produce electricity, which is supplied to the public grid. This way electricity production excess is efficiently accumulated for industrial or municipal use.
