Abstract

It is expected that liquid hydrogen (LH₂) will be utilized for energy transportation and storage. The LH₂ maintained in storage tanks is capable of generating electric power for a long time through fuel cells (FCs) without emission of carbon dioxide (CO₂), and can cool high-temperature superconducting (HTS) machines, such as SMES and HTS cable, as well. We propose a hybrid energy transportation system composed of LH₂ transfer pipeline, a FC system and HTS cable. We studied the power efficiency of the hybrid system and the pipeline design. We estimated the loss in the LH₂ transfer pipeline with HTS cable and optimized the pipeline design. It was found that the hybrid energy transportation system has lower loss than conventional electric power cable. Since this system can transport not only LH₂, but also large electric power with small loss, twice the amount of electric power can be supplied when large power load is required at peak times.
