Scale Factor를 이용한 국내 천연가스 개질식 수소충전소의 규모의 경제 분석 = Analysis of the Economy of Scale for Domestic Steam Methane Reforming Hydrogen Refueling Stations Utilizing the Scale Factor

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The aim of this study is to evaluate the economic feasibility of domestic on-site steam methane reforming (SMR) hydrogen refueling stations. We evaluated the levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH) for the SMR hydrogen refueling stations, which have production capacities of 100 kg/day (SMR 100), 200 kg/day (SMR 200), and 500 kg/day (SMR 500) utilizing the scale factor. The main results indicated that the LCOH of SMR 100, SMR 200, and SMR 500 were 14,367 won/kg, 11,122 won/kg, and 8,157 won/kg, if the utilizations of hydrogen stations were 70%. These results imply that the production capacity of the domestic SMR hydrogen station should be greater than 500 kg/day to compete with other hydrogen stations when we consider the current sale price of hydrogen at the hydrogen stations.
