Importing hydrogen and hydrogen derivatives: from costs to prices

Current knowledge indicates that Germany will have to rely on importing hydrogen and hydrogen derivatives to achieve its ambitious targets. Against this background, for the first time, an ap-proach was presented for how to envisage a future emerging market and how to move from pro-duction costs to prices. For this purpose, the development of a partial equilibrium model is out-lined with price-elastic supply and demand functions and the inclusion of transport costs. In this model, country risks and the influence of regulation are also taken into account.
