Abstract
Provided is a power generation system including a wave power generator that can be configured in a simple manner. The power generation system 1 includes: a power generation unit including a wave power generator 11; a power storage unit 40 accumulating electric power obtained by the power generation unit; a production unit 51 producing at least one of hydrogen and an organic hydride based on the electric power obtained by the power storage unit; and a tank 53 located below compared to the wave power generator 11 and storing at least one of the hydrogen and the organic hydride obtained by the production unit 51.
Claims8
A power generation system comprising:
- a power generation unit including a wave power generator;
- a power storage unit accumulating electric power obtained by the power generation unit;
- a production unit producing an organic hydride based on the electric power obtained by the power generation unit;
- a tank located below compared to the wave power generator and storing the organic hydride obtained by the production unit;
- and
- a base part located above compared to a float of the wave power generator and holding the power storage unit,
- wherein the production unit is a hydrogenation unit producing the organic hydride from an aromatic compound,
- the tank includes a first tank storing the aromatic compound, a second tank storing the organic hydride, and a third tank storing water or air,
- the tank has a donut shape,
- at least a part of the wave power generator passes through a tubular member or a bar-shaped member connecting the base part and the tank, and is held in a swingable state in a vertical direction,
- the tubular member or the bar-shaped member extends from an outer wall on an inward side of the donut-shaped tank,
- the aromatic compound passes through the inside of at least one of the tubular members,
- the organic hydride passes through the inside of at least one of the tubular members other than the tubular member through which the aromatic compound passes inside,
- the water or air passes through the inside of at least one of the tubular members other than the tubular member through which the aromatic compound or the organic hydride passes inside,
- the tank includes a first partition wall to partition the first tank and the second tank, a second partition wall to partition the second tank and the third tank, and a third partition wall to partition the third tank and the first tank, and
- at least two of the first partition wall, the second partition wall, and the third partition wall are movable inside the tank.
