KG H₂ FUEL INCLUDED PER FCEV LEASE:
-93,000
EXPECTED CONTRIBUTION MARGIN
$350K fuel revenue per FCEV lease
Implies "$3.75 revenue per KG H₂ produced
• At "$2.50 COGS per KG, implies a contribution margin of "33%
before station capex amortization
Projected FCEV fueling contribution margin of "33%;
electricity comprises majority of fuel production COGS
KEY CONSIDERATIONS
• Electrolyzer maintenance cost estimated as % of total
hydrogen station capex
• Electrolyzer insurance cost estimated as % of total
hydrogen station capex
Electricity consumption cost estimated based on
expected electricity price times quantity required to
produce one kg of hydrogen
Water cost estimated based on expected price of water
multiplied by quantity required to produce one kg of H₂
Station personnel cost based on the expectation that 3
FTEs will be required to operate each hydrogen station
