Abstract
In this work, the technical and economical feasibility for implementing a hypothetical electrolytic hydrogen production
plant, powered by electrical energy generated by alternative renewable power sources, wind and solar, and conventional
hydroelectricity, was studied mainly trough the analysis of the wind and solar energy potentials for the northeast
of Brazil. The hydrogen produced would be exported to countries which do not presently have significant renewable
energy sources, but are willing to introduce those sources in their energy system. Hydrogen production was evaluated
to be around 56.26 · 106 m3 H2/yr at a cost of 10.3 US$/kg.
