Extended Data Table 3 Parameters to calculate the total cost of the fossil competitors

From: The green hydrogen ambition and implementation gap

  1. All values in MWh refer to the respective lower heating value. The natural gas price and the oil price in 2050 are obtained from the IEA NZE 1.5 °C scenario40. For grey hydrogen and grey methanol, which are produced from natural gas, we ensure internal consistency with the natural gas price by calibrating the specific fixed costs in 2024, which we then use for 2030 and 2050 (see Methods). For kerosene and diesel in 2030 and 2050, we proceed similarly, using crude oil as the reference point. All values, sources and further comments are available in the Excel file provided on the GitHub repository78,79.
