Performance and Emissions Analysis of Hydrogen Co-Firing in Combined Cycle Power Plants
Keywords:
co-firing, Gas Turbine, hydrogen, volumetric controlAbstract
Indonesia's goal to become a net zero carbon emitter by 2060 requires substantial investment in carbon emission reduction. While energy storage systems are popular among regulators for managing energy from variable renewable energy (VRE) sources, hydrogen co-firing in Peaker power plants, such as gas turbines, can reduce investment costs by utilizing existing infrastructure. This paper examines the implementation of hydrogen co-firing in gas turbines under various scenarios based on hydrogen volume percentages. We simulate co-firing with 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50% hydrogen. The results show that higher hydrogen percentages increase power output but produce lower exhaust gas temperatures and mass flow, which must be considered in combined cycle power plant simulations.
