Low Carbon Hydrogen Supply 2 Project

The Opportunity

Climate change and the need for sustainability are all driving a growing opportunity and requirement for Green Hydrogen production. Technological improvements are reducing the cost of production and transport of Green Hydrogen, making it increasingly commercially attractive. BPP has discovered a market need for assessing the feasibility of various configurations of Green Hydrogen production systems.

The Project

BPP has developed a system design and integration engineering tool that can be used to carry out feasibility and Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) studies for various configurations of Green Hydrogen production systems. 

Highlights of engineering tool:

• Enables the impact of climate on Green H2 system performances to be assessed
• Accurate and representative models of engineering components of hydrogen systems thanks to close collaboration with our leading manufacturer partners
• Detailed techno-economic assessment of system allowing Levelised Cost of Hydrogen (LCOH) to be determined

The Results

BPP has developed a small-scale onshore hydrogen pilot system design that incorporates the previously described technologies to minimise the LCOH, maximise utilisation factors of key equipment and minimise operational costs. This pilot system provides a foundation upon which larger hydrogen production facilities can be scaled up from, which use other forms of intermittent renewable energy sources, such as onshore and offshore wind and solar.
