The scenarios for providing renewable electricity for water electrolysis purpose
Three scenarios are considered to determine the quantity of renewable electricity
available to produce hydrogen via water electrolysis.
The scenario (1) corresponds to the situation where all the renewable electricity
produced is dedicated to the water electrolysis to produce hydrogen.
