Abstract

The cost competitiveness of green hydrogen production via electrolysis presents a significant challenge for its large-scale adoption. One potential solution to make electrolyzers profitable is to diversify their products and participate in various markets, generating additional revenue streams. Electrolyzers can be utilized as flexible loads and participate in various frequency-supporting ancillary service markets by adjusting their operating set points. This paper develops a mixed-integer linear model, deriving an optimal scheduling strategy for an electrolyzer providing Frequency Containment Reserve (FCR) services in the Nordic synchronous region. Depending on the hydrogen price and demand, results show that the provision of various FCR services, particularly those for critical frequency conditions (FCR-D), could significantly increase the profit of the electrolyzer.
