Key Points

This research aims to identify cost drivers and trade-offs associated with low-carbon fuels globally.
Conducted a techno-economic assessment of various low-carbon fuels
Analyzed the economic viability in different regions
Assessed the impact of fuel types on decarbonization efforts
Identified key economic factors influencing low-carbon fuel adoption
Revealed significant regional differences in competitiveness of different fuel types
Forecasted economic implications of low-carbon fuel deployment across sectors

Implication

Techno-economic assessment analyzes cost drivers for low-carbon fuels, indicating regional trade-offs.

Abstract

Low-carbon fuels (LCFs) such as green hydrogen, synthetic hydrocarbons, and biofuels are critical for decarbonizing sectors that are difficult to electrify. In this study, we present a globally harmonized techno-economic...
