Abstract
This report summarizes the results of a lifecycle assessment of a renewable hydrogen production process employing wind/electrolysis. Resource consumption, energy requirements, and emissions were determined in a cradle-to-grave manner on the operations required to transform raw materials into useful products, including the material production processes required to construct the wind turbines,electrolyzer, and hydrogen storage tanks.
