Brew with the Crew: A Case Study of INL's 30kW Emerald System" by Temitayo Olowu, INL
The brewing will begin at 4:45 with the topical discussion starting at 5:00 and ending at 5:45 to allow for post-presentation
conversations. The event will adjourn at 6:00. Finger food will be provided to keep the stomachs from growling.
Join us for the upcoming technical talk —attend in person at Stockman’s Restaurant or virtually via Microsoft Teams
Title:
Industrial Controls Development for Small-to-Large Scale High-Temperature Steam Electrolysis to Enable Ancillary Services Provision: A Case Study of INL’s 30kW Emerald System
Abstract:
The rapid proliferation of distributed energy resources (DERs) and the increasing need for flexible
load management present both opportunities and challenges for modern power systems. This presentation
will explore advanced methods for flexible loads, such as high-temperature steam electrolysis (HTSE). It will
examine both centralized and decentralized control architectures and communication protocols to enable
seamless integration of hardware from different vendors. A case study of INL’s 30kW Emerald System will
be presented. Finally, the presentation will discuss an upcoming demonstration of coordinated control
between HTSE and distributed energy resources for the provision of ancillary services to the grid.
