What is the cost of hydrogen?

Fossil-based hydrogen costs about $1.80/kg, and the commission estimated the cost of blue hydrogen, which pairs carbon capture with steam methane reformation of natural gas, at about $2.40/kg.

What is the cost of 1 Litre hydrogen?

The cost of hydrogen as fuel is very cheap when compare to other fuels. Hydrogen gas costs just Rs. 30 per liter making it the cheapest option that India is not considering. And it doesn’t damage the engine, not leaving behind any residue in the.

Considerations. While hydrogen is a cheaper fuel than gasoline on paper, the reality is, as of 2010, it is much more expensive. The few models of hydrogen-fueled cars that are commercially available generally cost more than $100,000. Researchers are still tweaking the technology to produce and transport hydrogen fuel.

Because hydrogen contains less energy per unit volume than all other fuels, transporting, storing, and delivering it to the point of end-use is more expensive on a per gasoline gallon equivalent basis.

How much does it cost to fill up a Mirai?

They work like a petrol station, you chuck in the pump, fill up the tank, pay and go. It’s faster than charging an EV, but it’s also way more expensive. Currently in the US it costs about US$16 (A$21) per kilogram of hydrogen. So filling the Mirai’s 5kg tank could cost around A$105.

How much does a hydrogen electrolyzer cost?

Hydrogen can be produced from polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) electrolyzers at a cost of ~$5 to $6/kg-H2, assuming existing technology, low volume electrolyzer capital costs as high as $1,500/kW, and grid electricity prices of $0.05/kWh to $0.07/kWh.

How much does it cost to fill up a Mirai with hydrogen?

Currently in the US it costs about US$16 (A$21) per kilogram of hydrogen. So filling the Mirai’s 5kg tank could cost around A$105. This will let you travel 500km, which is a better range than most EVs but means your price per km is still considerably higher than a traditional petrol car.
