Transport cycling
Wind turbines and photovoltaic panels produce green energy
The power plant is powered by the hydrogen turbine or with the energy produced by the exothermic reaction of the tanks when they are loaded with hydrogen
Electrolysers produce hydrogen using pure water and energy from photovoltaic panels and/or wind turbines
Transport tank storage location
Hydrogen turbines allow the control of intermittent (renewable) energy by producing electricity (thermal power plant) on demand
