Levelised Cost of Hydrogen | Blue Hydrogen Production
Calculate your levelised cost of hydrogen (LCOH)
Use our interactive LCOH calculator to explore how various factors influence the cost of hydrogen production. Our tool integrates average utility prices based on your project's location among other variables, and does not account for subsidies like those under the US Inflation Reduction Act.
The calculator below requires you to add values greater than 0 in both the Target hydrogen production and CO₂ tax rate sections in order to produce an estimate.

Understanding levelised cost of hydrogen (LCOH)
Levelised cost of hydrogen (LCOH) is the discounted production cost over a plant’s lifetime per unit of hydrogen produced. The calculation uses the costs of the initial investment (CAPEX) required, the costs of operating the assets involved in its production (OPEX), and the value of the net hydrogen production.
As global decarbonisation targets approach, the role of blue hydrogen in the energy transition becomes increasingly pivotal. However, maximising the benefits of your blue hydrogen production hinges on adopting a cost-effective, high-quality approach. Keeping the LCOH low is essential to ensuring economic viability and sustainability in your hydrogen production efforts. Deployable and proven at scale, blue hydrogen with LCH™ technology offers a proven path to low carbon hydrogen production with the lowest LCOH.
Optimise your project with JM’s blue hydrogen technology
JM’s proven LCH™ technology can enable cost-effective blue hydrogen production at scale. Leveraging Autothermal reforming (ATR) or ATR coupled with a Gas Heated Reformer (GHR), LCH™ technology can capture up to 99% of CO₂ produced during hydrogen generation. Backed up by our extensive syngas expertise and experience deploying world scale plants, we can provide the ideal low carbon hydrogen solution for you.
