In order to realize the safe and stable operation of the 100% renewable energy integrated energy system, reasonable capacity allocation is very important. Firstly, considering the utilization characteristics of hydrogen energy, an integrated energy system with multi-energy coupling of electricity, heat and hydrogen was constructed. Secondly, aiming at the lowest operating cost and minimum pollutant emission, a capacity optimal allocation model of a integrated energy system with 100% renewable energy was established, and the Pareto frontier was constructed by the compromise planning and fuzzy method to solve the multi-objective problem. Finally, based on the characteristic curves of typical diurnal output and electric, thermal and hydrogen loads in three different seasons, the validity of the model is verified by simulation examples, and the application of hydrogen energy can bring obvious economic benefits to the integrated energy system.
In order to solve the excessive carbon emissions caused by the massive use of fossil energy and the problem of power consumption caused by the large-scale development of wind power, the use of wind power coupled with seawater hydrogen production is an ideal way to realize the transformation from traditional fossil energy to green energy. At the same time, this method can not only promote the consumption of new energy power, but also alleviate the problem of fresh water allocation. According to the calculation results of theoretical energy consumption and the analysis of the cost of seawater desalination technology, compared with direct seawater splitting, which is still in the research stage, seawater electrolysis after desalination is more economical and reliable. From the perspective of sustainable development, wind power coupled with seawater electrolysis after desalination is an important strategic means to achieve emission peak and carbon neutrality as soon as possible.

Hydrogen energy is an important renewable carbon-free energy, which regarded as the most ultimate energy carrier in the 21st century. Hydrogen energy storage can effectively solve the accommodation of renewable energy and stabilize the peak-valley of power grid. China is the largest energy consumer and CO2 emitter in the world. The application scenario of hydrogen energy storage for the model of zero carbon emission was proposed based on the carbon peaking & carbon neutralization.

In September 2020, General Secretary Xi Jinping stated at the 75th United Nations General Assembly: China's CO2 emissions will strive to reach their peak by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2060.After the targets of carbon peak and carbon neutrality was determined, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region actively responded to national policies and vigorously promoted the use of clean energy. However, with the large-scale integration of clean energy into the grid, Ningxia power grid is facing many problems such as difficulty in digestion of new energy and poor power quality. The popularization and application of energy storage technology has brought new directions to the solution of the above problems.
