sera - Power-to-Gas Compressor Unit
With sera power-to-gas compressor units, innovative system solutions can be created for converting renewable energy into hydrogen for use in a range of applications. Direct use of green hydrogen in mobility and transportation is just as feasible as buffering in storage facilities and direct supply into the natural gas grid or H2 pipelines. Power-to-gas energy storage can help to balance out increasing fluctuations of wind and solar energy in power generation, or keep power from being fed directly into the grid at times when generation is particularly high.
Most sera power-to-gas compressor units use our hydraulically driven dry-running piston compressors. Due to its design and focus on maximum technical reliability, this compressor technology is ideal for the various applications of power-to-gas. The compressor units are extremely compact and take up comparatively little floor space.
They can be installed in steel or concrete containers as well as indoors in existing buildings.
