Green Hydrogen Projects
Course Recordings & Presentation Slides
This course is intended for those seeking a time-effective, wide-ranging and independent perspective on opportunities within the rapidly growing market for clean hydrogen production from renewable power.
You will leave with a clearly explained, business-focused perspective on electrolysis technology and its cost determinants. You want to separate what is actually happening in the market from some of the headlines and hype, and to identify credible near-term opportunities for your business. You want to evaluate barriers to longer-term scalability along with project planning and delivery considerations, illustrated by examples taken from a global perspective.

Session 1: 29th June, 14:00 - 17:00 CET
Electrolysis (technologies & economics)
A clear explainer, for business people, of green hydrogen production (electrolysis) technologies and the performance and economic metrics that matter.
What are the different electrolysis types, how do they compare and what makes up a full green hydrogen production system? What are the key technology trends to look out for? What are the process inputs and outputs and how do they contribute to the production cost of hydrogen, both today and over the next five to ten years?
A business person’s guide to electrolysis: what you need to know
Inputs, outputs and key performance metrics
Comparing and contrasting competing electrolysis solutions
The current status and future trends of electrolyser technologies
Current product examples (what’s within real specification data sheets)
Technology selection criteria: what are the key considerations?
Examining the economics of green hydrogen production
Reviewing and understanding the wide range of electrolysis cost data
Balance of system, operational and other cost contributions
Calculating the cost of hydrogen production (a levelized cost approach)
Sensitivity analysis: which variables are most important for green hydrogen costs?
Forecast future cost reductions – and how they can be achieved
Session 2: 30th June, 14:00 - 17:00 CET
A Review of Current and Upcoming Project Examples
Illustrated with examples from around the world, an up-to-the-minute briefing of where and why green hydrogen production is being deployed.
What are the different end-use applications that are being targeted? What are the scales of projects now and how quickly are these likely to change?
Appraising the market opportunities for green hydrogen
Green hydrogen today and targets and forecasts for growth over the next decade
Trends in the scale of individual projects
Opportunities for meeting the spectrum of potential hydrogen end-use applications
Large-scale and industrial green hydrogen
Current hydrogen applications: cleaning up refining and ammonia production
New industrial opportunities, including steel, chemicals and oil & gas operations
Proposals targeting gigawatt-scale production and international trade
Green hydrogen as an enabler in constrained energy systems
Integrations with renewable power, including microgrids
Onsite hydrogen production, including filling stations
Electrolysis and hydrogen production to provide power system flexibility benefits
Session 3: 1st July, 14:00 - 17:00 CET
Project deployment and business case drivers
Successful green hydrogen projects will be built upon a solid appreciation of the competitive, economic and policy variables impacting the business case, along with knowledge of the practical deployment hurdles to be overcome.
What considerations should a solid market assessment process include? What project development processes are essential? What risks are faced by those seeking to maximise their business opportunities from green hydrogen.
Developing the green hydrogen business case
The key variables in a green hydrogen business plan (cutting through the complexity)
Market entry and assessment considerations
Bold targets vs. specific supports: where is policy at present?
Evaluating production costs, supply chain costs and market value: the competitive landscape facing green hydrogen
Revenue stacking and multiple business streams: opportunities to enhance the economics of green hydrogen
Delivering green hydrogen projects
The essential practical development and deployment considerations; including land, grid connectivity, safety, supply chain complexity and more
Access to electricity: understanding the essential issues around renewable power as a supply (including variability)
Comparing the ‘deliverability’ of competing clean hydrogen solutions (in particular ‘green’ vs ‘blue’)
Challenges to the scalability of green hydrogen to meet growth targets and expectations
Closing summary: assessing near term business opportunities and long-term growth strategies
