Engineering Related problems: We assess the efficiency of two methods of chemical energy storage.I. First, we store the energy as natural gas (methane, CH4) and utilize it via combustion. We assume thefollowing efficiencies: electrolysis 70%, water-gas shift reaction 75%, natural gas storage andcirculation 80%, Fischer–Tropsch reaction 80%, combustion 75%. Based on these efficiencies, calculatethe efficiency of the total process.II. Secondly, we want to store the energy as hydrogen and utilize it via a fuel cell. We assume thefollowing efficiencies: electrolysis 70%, hydrogen storage and circulation 70%, fuel cell 50%. Calculatethe efficiency of the total process.III.

Estimate the greenhouse gas emissions from power production for the following threescenarios. Focus on the greenhouse gas emissions associated with theoperational energy, not the greenhouse gas emissions associated with the manufacture of theproduct or end of life processes.The hourly load demand for a home is given.1) All power during an hour of up to 5 kW is drawn from a baseload coal powerplant. Any power in excess of that amount is drawn from a peaker plant running as anatural gas combined cycle power plant.2) Localized solar energy production is provided in the table on the next page.Energy demand by the house is first met by this solar generation. If the total hourlyenergy demand is below 5 kW, then any extra energy required beyond that provided bythe solar panels is drawn from a coal power plant. If the total hourly demand is above 5kW, then any extra hour demand beyond 5 kW is met by a natural gas combined cyclepower plant. No credit is given if the solar energy production…
