Abstract
Direct air capture of carbon dioxide (CO2) is technically a feasible solution for reducing atmospheric CO2 concentrations at scale, building on decades of global research. However, powering such systems even partially with CO2-intensive fossil fuels results in more CO2 emissions. This paper presents a novel energy management strategy (EMS) to further explore modular offshore wind energy off Canada's West Coast via power-to-direct air capture and power-to-gas systems. The system architecture includes a 15MW wind turbine paired with a hydrogen energy storage system, i.e. hydrogen production and storage, and direct air capture (DAC) units. Hydrogen production from wind generation is stored and used to deliver the thermal loads of the DAC system. In addition to meeting DAC thermal loads, any excess produced hydrogen is used to meet hydrogen demand for external consumers, such as hydrogen as a fuel for fuel cell vehicles. The effectiveness of the proposed EMS is shown through extensive simulations with different seasonal conditions.
