摘要
It is acknowledged that Hydrogen has a decisive role to play in insuring a reliable and efficient penetration of renewable electricity in the energy mix. Nonetheless, building a sustainable Hydrogen Economy is faced with numerous challenges across the value chain. Namely, large-scale production and storage are still open issues that need to be addressed. A promising solution is to store renewable H2 in the form of green ammonia often referred to as Power-to-Ammonia. Thus unlocking all available infrastructure for ammonia to effectively store and export hydrogen in bulk. In this value chain, the missing link is ammonia cracking to recover back hydrogen at high purities. The present work explores a technical solution to recover hydrogen from ammonia at large-scale. Through an exhaustive technoeconomic analysis, we have demonstrated the feasibility of large-scale production of pure H2 from ammonia. The designed Ammonia-to-H2 plant operates at a thermal efficiency of 68.5% to produce 200 MTPD of pure hydrogen at 250 bar. Furthermore, this study has established a final estimation of the Levelized Cost of Hydrogen (LCOH) from green ammonia. It was revealed that LCOH is mostly dependent on green ammonia cost, which in turn varies with renewable electricity cost.
