Monitoring a range of information to automatically control operation
Hydrogen is a stable and self-sufficient source of energy that can be generated from renewable resources to provide clean energy without CO2 emissions, and is suited to long-term storage for utilization on demand. To take advantage of these features in "normal time", H2EMS™ monitors factors including power generation, electricity use, and production and storage of hot water and hydrogen to automatically control and optimize the operation. In times of emergency, stored hydrogen can be used to provide a stable supply of electricity and hot water without depending on the grid.
Efficient use of renewable energy with H2EMS™
Maximum use of power generation capacity
Toshiba is pressing ahead with research to find more effective ways to use renewable energy. Toshiba's unique H2EMS™ integrates and manages each process in the production, storage, and use of hydrogen to maximize the efficiency with which a system's power generation capacity is used.
Applying Toshiba's EMS technologies for electric power
At Toshiba's Hydrogen Energy R&D Center...
H2EMS™ manages output fluctuations in solar power, controls fuel cells and storage batteries in accordance with forecast demand, and optimizes your entire hydrogen energy system. Large quantities of basic data on the performance and features of each piece of equipment are utilized to forecast demand.
Toward the future realization of a CO2-free hydrogen society
Toshiba plans to attain ever higher levels of technology by combining H2EMS™ with AI and IoT technologies. We will take advantage of our engineering expertise--developed not only for hydrogen fuel cells but also for solar power, storage batteries, hydrogen production, and energy management systems--to provide society with an integrated solution that incorporates all of these technologies.
