Hydrogen may already be competitive to fossil fuels in some regions – 2 Jul 2021

In some low cost renewable energy regions, hydrogen electrolysers may already be competitive

This analysis demonstrates two important points. First, that competitive renewable hydrogen in specific markets could be available even before significant cost reductions and performance improvements in electrolysers have materialised. Secondly, low-cost hydrogen from solar and wind may initially rely on areas with excellent solar and wind resources, given the need to achieve high load hours to amortise the costs of relatively expensive electrolysers.
