The Fuel Cell Technologies Office will present a live webinar titled “Techno-Economic Models that Simulate the Costs of User-Defined Hydrogen Fueling Stations and Methods of Hydrogen Delivery” on Tuesday, February 27 from 12 to 1 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. In this webinar, Argonne National Laboratory will explain how their publicly available models, such as the Hydrogen Delivery Scenario Analysis Model (HDSAM) and Heavy-Duty Refueling Station Analysis Model (HDRSAM), can be used to simulate the costs of hydrogen delivery and dispensing into fuel cell vehicles. These models determine the levelized cost of hydrogen fuel in user-defined scenarios using discounted cash flow analysis and key assumptions of equipment costs and performance. Model assumptions have been derived and vetted through extensive industry engagement, but can also be modified by users to perform specialized analyses. The webinar will teach interested users how to use these tools, and provide examples of case studies that have been completed to date.
