Abstract

Hydrogen production and storage are the main issues related to its large-scale utilization. Water electrolysis large-scale implementation for the production of green H₂ has been hampered mainly by cost issues. In this chapter, the main costs issues related to the hydrogen economy transition are analyzed. This is a fundamental aspect for the steel-energy planning. The costs related to innovative steelmaking routes are compared with those belonging to the traditional integrated route. The fundamental aspects of hydrogen production costs by route are highlighted. The forecasts related to new energy solutions for hydrogen production are analyzed. Finally, the economic issues related to hydrogen production to direct reduction reactors are underlined.
