Sixth Haeolus project meeting
For the first time since January 2020, the Haeolus consortium could meet again in person for a project meeting in Belfort.

How much money can be made by an electrolyser providing balancing services to the grid? Haeolus researchers have recently published an article detailing just that, and there are some unexpected results.
The article has been published in the International Journal of Hydrogen Energy and is available from this link (open access).
More than a year ahead of the conclusion of the project, the publication targets of Haeolus have been achieved, with six conference contributions and three peer-reviewed journal articles.
The Haeolus data platform has now been made available for the public. During operation, it will be possible to monitor critical parameters of our units as they adapt to the actual wind production according to our control algorithms.
For now, the page is fairly quiet, but will be more lively when long-term tests will start. See our Livestream page for how to log in to the server.
Registration before the End of April by following the link : https://forms.gle/DypSCcsES7wYkwgT9
On 7th-10th of June, EU projects Haeolus and VirtualFCS will organise a common summer school, mainly targeted at PhD students, in Belfort, France. In presence, finally!
This year, the focus will be on modelling, diagnostics and prognostics of electrochemical hybrid systems, including fuel cells and batteries.
Save the dates, follow the link and stay tuned for the programme!
After the polar night, the sun has returned to Berlevåg, and our plant, finally completed after two years of Covid disruption, enjoys its first moments basking in the new year’s sunshine!
The current status of the Haeolus project will be presented at the upcoming European Hydrogen Week, specifically on Thursday 2nd December 2021, 11:40 – 12:00 CET (see agenda). Remember to register for the online event!
The Haeolus project has secured an extension of two years, and will continue until 31st December 2023.
Tecnalia propose a deliverable that defines the suite of test protocols that will be used to assess the demonstration performance of the HAELOLUS system when configured for operations in the fuel-production use case. Fuel-production use case covers the option of the combination of the wind-hydrogen systems that maximise the
production of hydrogen by the electrolyser feed by the energy coming from the wind farm. These protocols shall ensure that all relevant aspects of that control algorithms shall be tested during demonstration.
