Project Description
| Type of Project: |
Analysis |
| Category: |
Hydrogen Fuel Pathways |
| Objectives: |
Determine the potential for hydrogen production via renewable electricity sources. Three aspects of the renewable electrolysis system are analyzed: a renewable hydrogen resource assessment, the cost of hydrogen production via electrolysis, and the annual energy requirements of producing hydrogen at refueling stations. |
| Methodology/Approach: |
Boundary analysis, discounted cash flow analysis |
| Outputs: |
Amount of hydrogen that can be produced from solar and wind resources in the U.S. |
Products/Deliverables
