The project would make the power plant in Laayoune the first of its kind to run on green hydrogen instead of heavy fuels. Rabat - The National Office of Electricity and Drinking Water (ONEE) has announced signing a deal with Moroccan energy company Nareva, and GE Vernova’s Gas Power branch aiming to decarbonize the Laayoune fuel power plant.
The Laayoune power plant is currently fueled by heavy oil and features three high-performance GE Vernova 6B gas turbines with a total installed capacity of 99 Megawatts (MW). The ambitious plan covers an in-depth feasibility study exploring joint solutions for the production, storage, and supply of green hydrogen for the Laayoune power plant.
Such as the thermal-electrical-chemical abuses led to safety accidents is increasing, which is a serious challenge for large-scale commercial application of electrochemical energy storage power stations (EESS).
The safe operation of the energy storage power station is not only affected by the energy storage battery itself and the external operating environment, but also the safety and reliability of its internal components directly affect the safety of the energy storage battery.
Some safety accidents of energy storage stations in recent years . A fire broke out during the construction and commissioning of the energy storage power station of Beijing Guoxuan FWT, resulting in the sacrifice of two firefighters, the injury of one firefighter (stable condition) and the loss of one employee in the power station.
In short, battery storage plants, or battery energy storage systems (BESS), are a way to stockpile energy from renewable sources and release it when needed. When the wind blows and the sun shines turbines and solar panels may generate more energy than needed on a particular day.
