Project: HyAI (Hydrogen Artificial Intelligence)

Timescale: Oct 2020 – July 2021

Funders: Innovate UK and the Sustainable Innovation Fund

Project overview: 

HyAI is a pilot demonstration of AI software-controlled hydrogen storage technology. HyAI will show how software integrated with hydrogen hardware can make intelligent, data-driven asset management decisions in real time and optimise renewable energy integration into the UK electricity grid.

Partners:

• H2GO Power (lead partner)
• EMEC
• Imperial College London

EMEC’s role:

The project will ultiise energy data supplied from EMEC’s hydrogen production site to de3velop and train the AI software model.  The AI platform acts as an energy management system, integrating data about weather, electricity prices and grid management. It then translates this information using AI predictive algorithms to optimise the operation of the storage systems by predicting future power cost and user demands
