Introduction
The International Hydrogen Infrastructure Group (IHIG) requested a comparative economic analysis ofdifferent hydrogen pathways for fuel cell vehicles. Thus a cost estimation project was taken up by SFA
Pacific, sponsored by the US Department of Energy.
SFA Pacific, a California based company which provides evaluation services ([1]), prepared cost modules for
different hydrogen pathways. These pathways consist of different options for production, handling,
distributing and dispensing hydrogen from central plants and on-site production plants (forecourt plants). The
cost module worksheets have provision to enter alternative inputs for assumptions made. For example
assumptions like production capacity, carrying capacity, distribution distance etc. can be provided by the
user.
The investment and operating costs modules are developed based upon commonly accepted cost estimatingpractices. Capital build-up is based on percentages of battery limit process unit costs. Variable non-fuel and
fixed operating and maintenance (O&M) costs are estimated based on percentages of total capital per year.
Capital charges are also estimated as percentages of total capital per year assumptions for capital investment.
The capital cost estimates are based on U.S. Gulf Coast costs. A location factor adjustment is provided to
facilitate the evaluation of costs for three targeted states: high cost urban areas such as New York/New Jersey
and California and low-cost lower population density Texas. Two provisions are made at forecourt/fueling
stations to allow "what-if" analysis: (1) road tax input accommodates possible government subsidies to
jump-start the hydrogen economy and (2) gas station mark-ups permit incentives for lower revenue during

(Air Products, BOC and Praxair) and hydrogen equipment vendors. As an example, comparison of hydrogen
costs developed by SFA Pacific and Air Products is shown in table below.

a: The difference between SFA Pacific and Air Products cost can be regarded as large difference in capital investment for fueling station infrastructure.
Hydrogen Production
Three main commercial production technologies are considered in the cost analysis: reforming, gasification
(partial oxidation) and electrolysis, out of which reforming is the most popular technology. It is observed that
the cost of hydrogen production from hydrocarbons (natural gas, gasoline etc.) is less than that from
renewable resources (biomass, water etc.). The costs for production of hydrogen and delivery by liquid
tanker are given in the following table.

Economics of renewable resources for hydrogen production (biomassand water)
Biomass is a renewable source of hydrogen. From point of view of large scale hydrogen production itpossesses certain limitations.
Supply of biomass is a seasonal product. Thus it requires expensive storage facilities.
It has high moisture content (except for field dried crop residue). As a result it requires extensive
drying before gasification.
Limited supplies are available.
However, available biomass can be used as a supplement for other solid feedstock and the utilisation of
gasification units can be maximised.
Water contains hydrogen naturally, but the process of electrolysis used for extraction of hydrogen isexpensive compared to the conventional methods of production of H2 from hydrocarbons.
The list of feedstock and utility costs used in this analysis is given in table below.

Electrolysis from renewable energy sources
Hydrogen can be extracted from water by electrolysis. Although this method is more expensive than the
conventional methods, its cost is reducing with the advances in the electrolysis technology. Moreover,
hydrogen does not damage the earth by global warming when produced electrochemically, the electricity
coming from non-CO2 producing sources such as wind and solar energy. This section presents the analysis of
cost of hydrogen produced from these two renewable resources.
Method of calculation of cost of hydrogen:
Cost elements involved in hydrogen production by electrolysis using wind and solar energy1 USD = 0.80 Euro
Various elements are involved in deciding the final cost of a product. The governing elements deciding the
cost of hydrogen produced by electrolysis using wind and solar energy are illustrated in the figure.
The cost of hydrogen produced by electrolysis depends on two terms;
Cost of 1 GJ of H2 = A + B
where A is the cost of electricity used to produce a certain unit (1 GJ corresponding to 1 MBTU) of
hydrogen. This electricity can be obtained in various ways such as from wind, solar energy etc. The
expression for A is given as;
A = 2.29Ec

where, Eis cell potential (in volts) used in an electrolysis unit at a cell current density of 100mA / cm 2 and c
is the cost of electricity in a large scale manufacturing plant in cents / kWh.
B is the aggregate amortization cost of building the plant, its insurance, maintenance and cost of employees.
This value (in EUR / GJ of H2) should be recalculated each year since it depends on the value of the
currency, inflation etc. For 2006 value of B is calculated as $ 2.84 / MBTU (rounded to $3 i.e. 2.4 EUR /
GJ). For high temperature electrolysis value of B is taken as $ 4.49 / MBTU (3.59 EUR / GJ).
The cost of H2 transport (more than 1000 miles) is added to the above calculated cost. For the year 2006 this
cost is found to be $1.66 (1.34 EUR). Considering 25 % profit, the obtained value is multiplied by 1.25.
For high temperature electrolysis, the cost to maintain the system at high temperature is also considered. The
difference between the cell potentials at high and room temperature is noted. According to a thumb rule, heat
costs about one-third of corresponding electrical cost. Using this rule, one third of the potential difference isadded to the cell voltage.
Cost of electricity from wind:
Relation between cost of electricity from wind and wind speed upto 8.94 m/s (20 mph)
The cost of energy from wind is inversely proportional to v3 up to an average wind speed of 20mph (8.94
m/s). Large number of locations in US have an average wind velocity around 15 mph (6.7 m/s). Cost of
electricity produced from wind in September 2006 was 4.5 ? 6 cents / kWh (3.6 - 4.8 euro cents / kWh). Cost
of wind energy is decreasing continuously over a period of last twenty years. At the same time value of dollar
is also decreasing. Thus the cost of electricity from wind changes with time and location.
In addition to the cost of electricity the final cost of hydrogen also depends on the potential and current
density of electrolysis. The advances made in electrolysis help in further reducing the cost of hydrogen.
The following table shows an estimation for hydrogen prices depending on the temperature of theelectrolysis.

Cost of solar electricity:
From solar energy electricity can be obtained in various ways, two of them being photovoltaic and Ocean
Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC). For photovoltaic path, the cost of solar energy depends on the
efficiency of conversion of solar light to electricity, which is rather low at this stage of development.
Additionally, the cost of solar cells is also high. Thus solar energy by photovoltaic is still too expensive than
the conventional polluting energies, to be used on a large scale.
For OTEC the overall efficiency of conversion of heat to work is much low. But the warm energy available isvery large and has low cost. Cost of OTEC is 1/2 to 1/3 times that of photovoltaic solar energy.
It is estimated that the PV electricity, used on large scale, will take 15 years (2021) to reach a price of 10
cents / kWh (20 % conversion efficiency). The costs given in the table below are the projected costs of H2 in
2021 based on value of dollar in 2006. The value of dollar is subjected to inflation by 2021.

Hydrogen Transport
This study considers three transport options: cryogenic liquid trucks, compressed H2 tube trailers and
pipelines. Cryogenic liquid trucks are the most economical way for transportation since they can carry large
amounts of hydrogen and can cover more distance. However, losses due to liquid boil-off are incurred in
liquid trucks.
Compressed H2 tube trailers are suited for small market demands. The amount of hydrogen that can becarried is limited by the thickness of tube (container). Typical weight ratio of tube-to-hydrogen is around
100-150:1. The cost of delivery is high for tube trailers. Also only 75-85% of load is dispensable.
Pipelines are best suited for small distances and for handling large flows. The installation cost of pipelines is
much high, $ 0.5 ? 1.5 million / mile. However, their operating cost is relatively small.
Following table shows the assumptions made in the study.

Hydrogen Storage
Hydrogen can be stored either in liquefied or compressed gaseous form.
Liquefaction of hydrogen is a costly option. Compressors and aluminium heat exchanger cold-boxes account
for most of the cost. SFA Pacific estimates the total cost for a liquefier as $ 1015 kg/d (estimate from Air
Products is $1125 kg/d). Energy consumption by multi stage compression is approximately 10 - 13 kWh / kg
of H2.
Compressors play a major roll in the capital and operating costs for compressing hydrogen. Multi stage
compressors are required to achieve the required pressure of hydrogen. For gaseous hydrogen compression
SFA estimated a capital cost of $ 2000 - 3000 / kW and power requirement of 0.5 ? 2 kW / kg / hr.
Although liquefaction is costlier than compression, storing H2 in liquid form is inexpensive and more
practical than storing H2 in compressed gaseous form. Hydrogen has the lowest energy density and thus more
amount of hydrogen is needed to give equal amount of energy as gasoline. For example, to provide energy
equivalent to one gallon of gasoline 3.72 gallons of liquid hydrogen and 8 gallons of gaseous hydrogen
(pressurised to 400 atm) are required. Thus higher the pressure lower the storage volume and higher the
energy stored.
However, as the pressure increases the thickness and thus cost of the storage tube increases. At 140 atm the
cost of tube is $400 / kg H2 whereas at 540 atm the cost is $ 2100 / kg H 2. Following figure shows the
dependence of cost of gaseous storage tubes on pressure.
