INTEGRATED SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR THE FLEXIBLE USE OF ELECTRICITY

摘要

The present invention relates to an integrated plant which comprises a plant for the electrothermic production of ethyne and a plant for electricity generation, the plant for the electrothermic production of ethyne being connected to the plant for electricity generation via a conduit and electricity being generated in the plant for electricity generation from a product gas obtained in the plant for the electrothermic production of ethyne. This integrated plant affords flexible use of electricity by a method in which, at times of a high electricity supply, the plant for the electrothermic production of ethyne is operated and at least some of the hydrogen and/or gaseous hydrocarbons obtained in addition to ethyne is stored and, at times of a low electricity supply, stored hydrogen and/or gaseous hydrocarbons are fed to the plant for electricity generation.
