This paper assesses the competitiveness of producing green Hydrogen in Saudi Arabia and Germany using a power- to-carrier modeling framework in PLEXOS. The only constraint provided in the model is the amount of green H2 to be produced annually. The model, running on an hourly temporal resolution, then (i) optimizes for the electrolyzer technology (alkaline, proton exchange membrane (PEM) or solid oxide electrolyzer cell (SOEC)), (ii) the capacity of the electrolyzer to be built and (iii) the optimal carbon-free energy mix.
