In this paper, a novel metamodel-based sizing optimization workflow is developed. The workflow is demonstrated on residential building scenarios with real solar power data. Sobol sequences are utilized to vary the component size in simulation, while radial basis functions are employed to approximate simulation results, which are then used for the optimization. The utilization of waste heat from Power-to-Gas and Gas-to-Power processes is evaluated using thermal equations by extending an existing coupled electrochemical and thermodynamic HESS model built in the multiphysical energy system simulator MEgy. The results show a functional workflow that optimizes sizing for a given scenario and outputs the component’s daily energy balance and state of charge.enfalseCoupled electrochemical and thermodynamic simulationHRESSHybrid energy storage system (HESS)Metal-hydride storageMetamodelSizing optimizationjournal article
