Zusammenfassung:A system of the present invention includes: a water electrolysis apparatus that generates hydrogen by electrolyzing water vapor using a fluctuating electric power derived from renewable energy; a reactor that reacts CO2 with the hydrogen to generate hydrocarbon; an evaporator that evaporates water, by heat generated by the reaction in the reactor, to generate water vapor; a heat exchanger that heats the water vapor with exhaust gas from the water electrolysis apparatus and supplies the water vapor to the water electrolysis apparatus; and a heat storage unit for the reactor, and the heat storage unit including a heat storage material that stores heat generated by hydrocarbonization.
