The presentation will examine the economic issues involved in developing hydrogen production, transmission and distribution systems to meet distributed heating demand using actual data and the lessons that can be learned from other networks.
On the supply side it will contrast steam reforming (blue hydrogen) with electrolysis (green hydrogen) relying on different sources of electricity including nuclear power, intermittent renewables and novel forms of gas generation. A point worth emphasizing is that the costs of CO2 transport and storage are a critical, but often neglected,
element in understanding the economics of hydrogen production systems.
