Decarbonising power systems requires technology that enables greater flexibility and facilitates the integration of renewable energy. Engine power plants running on sustainable fuels produced through the Power-to-X (P2X) process in combination with energy storage offer an ideal solution to meet this need.
The main P2X fuel options for power generation are green hydrogen, synthetic methane, ammonia and methanol. Wärtsilä’s continued research on P2X has led to a comprehensive economic feasibility analysis of the cost of using sustainable fuels for reliable power generation and long-term storage in the future.
