A new academic paper has stressed that green hydrogen’s use will be much narrower than envisaged unless low-cost storage and distribution technologies can be achieved.
The paper by Havard scientists said the current delivered prices of green hydrogen make it a “prohibitively expensive” option for carbon abatement across end-use sectors
Published in Joule, it estimated the carbon abatement cost of using green hydrogen is currently between $500 and $1,250/tonne CO2, depending on the use case – in some circumstances exceeding direct air capture (DAC).
