Technical Assumptions
- H₂ consumption and yields based on literature values for each pathway
- PEM electrolyser: 55 kWh / kg H₂
- Water consumption: 9 kg per kg H₂
- O₂ byproduct: 8 kg per kg H₂
- Operating hours: 8,000 h/year
Economic Assumptions
- CO₂ cost is assumed from a point source capture
- Capital Recovery Factor (CRF) based on WACC and lifetime
- CAPEX: PEM $1,000/kW • SAF plant $3,000/kW (fuel input)
- O₂ byproduct revenue and policy incentives are credited
LCOA = (Annualized CAPEX + Total OPEX – By-product Revenue – Incentives) / Annual SAF tonnes
