Niaj hnub no, tus nqi ntawm kev tsim ntsuab hydrogen tseem siab. Hauv tsab ntawv tshaj tawm xyoo tas los (siv 2018 cov ntaub ntawv), Lub Chaw Haujlwm Saib Xyuas Hluav Taws Xob Thoob Ntiaj Teb tau muab tus nqi ntsuab hydrogen ntawm $ 3 txog $ 7.5 ib kilogram, thaum tus nqi ntawm hydrogen ntau lawm retrofitted nrog chav methane yog $0.90 txog $3.20 ib. ib kg. Kev txo tus nqi ntawm cov electrolyzers yog qhov tseem ceeb rau kev txo nqi ntawm ntsuab hydrogen, tab sis nws yuav siv sij hawm thiab teev. Lub koom haum International Energy tau hais rau xyoo tas los tias cov nqi hluav taws xob hluav taws xob tuaj yeem txo qis los ntawm 2040 los ntawm kwv yees li $ 840 ib kilowatt ntawm lub peev xwm niaj hnub no. Cov ntaub ntawv lag luam rau ntsuab hydrogen yuav tsum tau siv hluav taws xob pheej yig dua, vim tias feem ntau ntawm cov txheej txheem electrolysis ploj. Cov hluav taws xob hluav taws xob nyob nruab nrab ntawm 60 feem pua thiab 80 feem pua ntau npaum li cas, raws li Shell.
Ntau daim ntawv thov yuav xav tau ntsuab hydrogen rau lub zog roj hlwb, ua rau muaj kev poob ntxiv uas ua rau muaj kev sib tw ua haujlwm hnyav dua. Qee cov neeg soj ntsuam kwv yees tias kev tsim cov hydrogen ntsuab tuaj yeem nqus tau lub zog tauj dua tshiab hauv cov chaw tsim khoom loj xws li Europe cov chaw ua haujlwm sab hnub poob. Txawm li cas los xij, vim tias tus nqi ntawm cov electrolyzers tseem siab, nws yog ib qho lus nug seb cov neeg tsim khoom ntawm cov phiaj xwm ntsuab hydrogen puas kam cia lawv cov electrolyzers zaum tsis ua haujlwm kom txog thaum cov nqi hluav taws xob tauj dua tshiab tau poob rau qee qib. Qhov zoo tshaj plaws, raws li BP thiab Plhaub tab tom xav txog, cov neeg tsim khoom yuav tsim cov nroj tsuag ntsuab hydrogen ntau lawm hauv cov chaw muaj peev txheej nplua nuj thiab muab tso rau lawv nrog cov cuab yeej tsim hluav taws xob txuas ntxiv dua tshiab.
