The lifetime of the electrolyzer has a significant impact on the cost of hydrogen production. AEM and PEM electrolyzers hold the promise of becoming competitive technology in the medium and long term, respectively. Hydrogen production by electrolysis technology spurs as extensive investigation toward new clear energy acquisition.
It can be seen from the figures that when the service life is less than 15 or 20 years for the three types of electrolyzers, the hydrogen production cost is not very sensitive to the catalyst activity degradation rate.
Scenarios presented in Table 1 show that hydrogen can feasibly be produced at a cost between $4 and $6/kg-H2 at present from renewable and grid feedstocks. The starting point for these analyses is the Current, Distributed H2A case study and corresponding DOE Program Record “Hydrogen Production Cost from PEM Electrolysis-2019” .
CATF explored the limits to potential cost declines and estimated that the average production costs for clean electrolytic hydrogen are highly unlikely to fall below $3/kg (Real 2022 USD) in the foreseeable future “To obtain more information about this tool please contact Gus Wakim ([email protected]) ”
In terms of the relationship between the service life of the electrolytic stack and the hydrogen production cost (Fig. 6 - (a), (b), and (c)), the extension of the service life will reduce the cost of hydrogen production.
