- Summary:
- This report presents an analysis of the levelized cost of producing hydrogen via different pathways using the National Renewable Energy Laboratory's (NREL) H2A Hydrogen Production Model, Version 2. NREL developed the H2A Production Model in 2002 to help DOE's Hydrogen Program understand the cost of producing hydrogen for the transportation market. The model enables technical and economic analysis of central and distributed (i.e., at the fueling station, or "forecourt") hydrogen production technologies. Using a standard discounted cash flow rate of return methodology, it determines the levelized hydrogen cost, including a specified after-tax internal rate of return on investments. The cost calculation is based on a wide variety of inputs that characterize financial assumptions as well as capital, operating, maintenance, feedstock, utility, and replacement costs. The recently released Version 2 of the model features enhanced usability and functionality. Input fields are consolidated and simplified. New capabilities include performing sensitivity analyses and scaling analyses to various plant sizes.
