Blue, green, and turquoise pathways for minimizing hydrogen production costs from steam methane reforming with CO2 capture

Florian Pruvost et al.

Summary: This study evaluates the techno-economic aspects of blue hydrogen production using steam methane reforming (SMR). The findings suggest that pre-combustion CO2 capture is a cost-effective method to reduce CO2 emissions, while post-combustion CO2 capture can be a better solution for the final 20% of emissions. Additionally, an advanced heat integration scheme and hybrid production options show potential for cost reduction.

Analyzing the levelized cost of hydrogen in refueling stations with on-site hydrogen production via water electrolysis in the Italian scenario

M. Minutillo et al.

Summary: The study focused on the techno-economic assessment of on-site hydrogen refueling stations using PV plants integrated with electrolysis units in the Italian scenario. It found that the levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH) is influenced by investment costs, operational and maintenance costs, and electricity prices. The results showed that the LCOH values increase proportionally with changes in electricity mix and hydrogen production capacity.
