Comprehensive review on the techno-economics of sustainable large-scale clean hydrogen production
Abstract
Abstract This paper provides an extensive analysis of the literature on technological, economic, and environmental aspects for clean-hydrogen production. Hydrogen production routes that are compatible with renewable and nuclear sources are introduced, highlighting the recent advances and developments found in the literature on this topic. Discussions on recent and future expectations on cost aspects of clean-hydrogen economy are introduced in generic cost-based comparisons. In addition, recent literature on environmental aspects of common clean-hydrogen production technologies is investigated and their results are analyzed. Among clean energy sources, lower electricity prices from nuclear and geothermal energy make these sources feasible for low-cost hydrogen generation that has the potential to compete with fossil-based hydrogen production. Solar and wind conversion technologies and their intermittent nature are strongly affecting hydrogen production cost. However, mature technologies provide competitive hydrogen cost values, especially when integrated to electrolysis-based technologies. Ongoing research shows promotive and encouraging results for a clean and carbon-free energization of hydrogen production in the near future.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
