Hydrogen, ammonia & e-fuels

CENovaFuels

Hydrogen and e-fuels, modelled inside the power market

Electrolysers are a growing source of power demand, and hydrogen-fired plant may later add supply, so the economics of these fuels can’t be separated from power prices. CENovaFuels is planned to bring electrolysers, ammonia and e-fuel pathways into the same market models as the rest of the platform, so production cost and system impact are solved together.

Planned scope

Production cost and system impact, solved together

Production cost

Levelised cost of hydrogen, ammonia and synthetic fuels at any site, from hourly electrolyser dispatch against the local price path rather than a flat power price. Learning curves are published and can be overridden, stack replacement and balance of plant are kept separate, and every LCOH traces back to its assumptions.

Coupling with power

Electrolysers are demand in the power model and offtake in the fuels model, solved together as one fixed point, so a 5 GW build shows up in price formation. Hydrogen-fired generation enters the same dispatch model that forecasts prices, with storage and pipelines as links across time and zones.

Pathways

PEM, alkaline and high-temperature electrolysis, ammonia synthesis loops, and methanol and synthetic-fuel routes, each with its own ramps, minimum loads and storage.

Certification

Hourly matching, additionality and geographic-correlation rules are enforced as dispatch constraints, with an attestation for every certified MWh.

Status: on the platform roadmap, built on the coupled dispatch and price models already in production.
