The SE²OPTIMIZER is a automation systems product from AVAT for hydrogen and fuel-cell system applications. Its specified configuration includes weight 400 g; IP20; power supply 19.2–28 V DC; max power consumption 9 W; AI-based demand forecasts. Its principal deployment contexts include optimization of hydrogen energy stations and dispatch optimization for systems with electrolysers and hydrogen storage. The technical design also includes ai-based demand forecasting for loads in energy stations, fully automated plant optimization, considers electrolysers, hydrogen storage and hydrogen power generation, exchange-price-based optimization. Its documented capability set includes forecasts demand using AI-based methods; optimizes operation of electrolysers, H2 storage and H2 power generation; performs fully automated exchange-price-based optimization. For system designers evaluating automation systems, these details define the model's operating values, physical or control characteristics, and the functions available for integration into the relevant hydrogen process or electrochemical system. The product can also be applied in energy-cost optimization using exchange-price signals, with selection based on the stated specifications and the surrounding system requirements.
