Ontario must build its own hydrogen production says H2GO Canada report

Ontario needs to build its own hydrogen production capacity to meet forecasted demand within the province, according to a new H2GO Canada report.

Forecasting Low-Carbon Hydrogen Market Characteristics in Ontario to 2050 outlines a new hydrogen ecosystem model that simulates the dynamics of future hydrogen market scenarios, generating estimates of job growth, greenhouse gas emissions, capital and operating expenditures, and total cost of hydrogen delivered to end-users.

Under a ‘constrained’ base case, the large province – which the report carves into six distinct regions – could produce 1Mtpa by 2050, rising to 3.8Mtpa under an ‘increased’ scenario.
