SCENARIO RESULTS

8,423 tonnes H₂ / year

Annual electricity
438 GWh
Electricity-only cost
$2.60 / kg H₂
Process water assumption
101,077 m³ / year

Electricity-only cost excludes capital, finance, maintenance, grid charges, water, compression, storage, transport and taxes. It is not a levelised hydrogen cost.

The calculation, made visible.

Electricity (MWh/year) = capacity (MW) × 8,760 hours × utilisation / 100.

Hydrogen (kg/year) = electricity (MWh/year) × 1,000 / electricity use (kWh/kg).

Electricity-only cost (USD/kg) = electricity use (kWh/kg) × electricity price (USD/MWh) / 1,000.

Process water (m³/year) = hydrogen (kg/year) × litres/kg / 1,000.

Defaults are illustrative, editable assumptions, not sourced equipment guarantees. System electricity use should use a consistent boundary, including the balance of plant you intend to model. Water excludes cooling, purification losses and site needs unless included in your input. The model uses a fixed non-leap year; it omits ramping, degradation, outages and downstream losses. No emissions saving or certification result is calculated.
