Green Hydrogen Project Economics
This in-depth course develops directly applicable capability in Green Hydrogen Project Economics. It connects Project Configuration and Energy Balance, Capital and Operating Cost Model, and Levelized Cost and Revenue to the decisions, controls, and activities participants need to perform in their workplace.
Overview
Practical learning for workplace transfer.
This in-depth course develops directly applicable capability in Green Hydrogen Project Economics. It connects Project Configuration and Energy Balance, Capital and Operating Cost Model, and Levelized Cost and Revenue to the decisions, controls, and activities participants need to perform in their workplace. The five-module curriculum progresses toward Hydrogen Economics Workshop, using evidence, scenarios, and work products appropriate to the subject.
Objectives
- Analyze project configuration and energy balance, including renewable supply, grid connection, electrolyzer, compression, storage, and transport.
- Configure or structure capital and operating cost model, including electrolyzer stacks, balance of plant, power, water, maintenance, and replacement.
- Evaluate levelized cost and revenue, including calculate levelized cost of hydrogen.
- Manage risk and investment decision, including technology performance, degradation, offtake, policy, construction, and supply chain.
- Apply hydrogen economics workshop, including build an energy and cost model.
Target audience
- Professionals responsible for this subject area
- Managers, supervisors, and team leaders
- Analysts, specialists, engineers, or coordinators working with the relevant processes
- Project, implementation, assurance, or improvement team members
- Professionals preparing for broader responsibilities in this field
