Table 3-3-1. Assumed future scenarios.
Name | Aim |
Reference scenario | The effect of posing upper limit on carbon dioxide emission on market penetration of hydrogen is examined. |
Carbon Tax Scenario | The effect of posing carbon tax on market penetration of hydrogen is examined. |
High Fossil Fuel Price Scenario | The effect of jump-up of fossil fuel price on market penetration of hydrogen is examined. |
Low Hydrogen Price Scenario | The effect of cost-down in reference hydrogen price on its market penetration is examined. |
Low Nuclear Capacity Scenario | The effect of posing severer upper limit on nuclear power capacity on market penetration of hydrogen is examined. |
Table 3-3-2 Sensitivity of changes in characteristics of hydrogen utilization technologies
(Note) | 1. Results on Reference scenario: price down of hydrogen: 2%/annum, upper limit on CO2, emission :100% of 1990 level 2. Upper row in the medium column is a reference value and lower row shows the condition for sensitivity evaluation. 3. Sensitivity is computed on accumulated consumption of hydrogen. |
. | Conditions for sensitivity analysis | Sensitivity on hydrogen consumption |
Hydrogen Turbine |
Capacity cost: (reference value: 20% more over LNG CC) --> equivalent with LNG CC |
+6% |
Efficiency: (reference value: 60%) --> improvement of 5% |
+9% | |
Hydrogen Vehicle |
Capacity cost: (reference value: 20% more over conventional gasoline cars) --> equivalent with the conventionals |
+100% (Market penetration is small in reference case) |
Efficiency: (reference value: 10% better than gasoline cars) --> improvement of 5% |
+20% | |
Hythane | Capacity cost: (reference value: equivalent with LNG source gas) --> 20% higher than LNG source gas |
-9% |
