Resumo

This chapter discusses that there is a large, well-established, commercial hydrogen production industry. Essentially all this hydrogen is made from fossil fuels, mostly natural gas. In addition, this hydrogen production involves the generation of large amounts of CO2 and utilizes hydrogen-CO2 separation technologies. Therefore, the cost of CO2 capture for geologic storage could be lower in hydrogen production than for other potential CO2 capture applications. This chapter addresses the cost and performance of hydrogen production from various fuels with and without CO2 capture for geologic storage. This transparent and consistent analysis will include both commercial and advanced technologies to show current costs and the potential for reducing hydrogen and CO2 capture costs in the future. It is based on several recent analyses of hydrogen production costs.
