Abstract
In recent years, Algeria has intensified its efforts to diversify its resources and ensure environmental sustainability by the implementation of energetic and economic policies and strategies. The integration of hydrogen into the road transportation sector as fuel can help country to meet its policy goals. Using the combination of spatial data in a Geographic Information System (GIS) with a techno-economic models, this paper presents an analysis of hydrogen demand from hydrogen vehicle in Algeria by 2045. The costs associated with hydrogen production via water electrolysis-based renewable sources, CO2 emissions, and the environmental benefits under two scenarios are also presented. The results of this study show that the annual amount of hydrogen demand would be 945.5 thousand tons H2 through 2045. Where the capital, Algiers represent 26% of national demands. The average levelized cost of hydrogen for the solar-based hydrogen, is in the range of 5 $/kg to 0.9 $/kg. Whereas, the average levelized cost of hydrogen for the geothermal-based hydrogen decline from 4.66 $/kg to 3.54 $/kg by 2045. A remarkable CO2 reduction is achievable; the environmental savings is estimated at 158.8 million tons of CO2.
