Hydrogen Production from Renewables - Technoeconomic Analysis

Project Summary

Full Title: Technoeconomic Analysis of Different Options for the Production of Hydrogen from Sunlight, Wind, and Biomass
Project ID: 101
Principal Investigator: Margaret Mann
Brief Description: NREL conducted technical and economic feasibility analyses on processes to produce hydrogen from sunlight, wind, and biomass. This work was presented at the 1998 DOE Hydrogen Program Review.
Keywords: Technoeconomic analysis; hydrogen production; costs; hydrogen storage; renewable

Purpose

To determine technical and economic viability and to provide insight into where each technology is in its development cycle, different options to produce hydrgoen from sunlight, wind, and biomass were studied. Additionally, costs for storing and transporting hydrogen were determined for different hydrogen quantities and storage times.
