Hydrogen

Costs of Producing Renewable and Low-Carbon Hydrogen in the Czech Republic – Model for Optimizing Hydrogen Production Using Renewable and Nuclear Sources

Year

2024–2025

Client

Technologická agentura ČR (TAČR)

Cooperation

The project is supported by the Technology Agency of the Czech Republic within the THÉTA 2 programme, the external application guarantor is the Ministry of Industry and Trade

LEEF role

The project aims to create an interactive model to assess renewable and low-carbon hydrogen production costs in the Czech Republic. It considers various scenarios for its development, including a higher share of renewables or the growth of modular nuclear reactors. The deliverables will support the implementation of the Czech Republic’s Hydrogen Strategy. With adjustable parameters and a focus on user-friendliness, the model will allow the Ministry of Industry and Trade (MPO) to verify the competitiveness of hydrogen production in CZ under different energy mix compositions and renewable energy surpluses in the grid.

⚪︎ A model for producing renewable and low-carbon hydrogen in the Czech Republic that reflects real conditions and allows for optimization and sensitivity analyses.
⚪︎ Interpretation of the costs of producing renewable and low-carbon hydrogen and verification of results through workshops with the expert public.
⚪︎ A user-friendly and comprehensive model.
⚪︎ Hydrogen production modeled at an hourly level throughout the year, taking into account the seasonal nature of production from renewable energy sources.
⚪︎ Modeling and collaboration with representatives of the Ministry of Industry and Trade.
