Turning low-cost renewables into green steel: How inter-regional supply chains catalyze hydrogen-based steelmaking competitiveness

This repository contains Python code and datasets for calculating the levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH) in renewable-electricity-powered hydrogen production systems, specifically applied to steelmaking processes. The code implements plant-level techno-economic optimization, including wind and solar power integration, electrolyzer operation, hydrogen storage, and transport considerations.
