Platinum Cost Share: Scenario Thinking

What this topic covers

How a user-entered platinum price and loading contribute to a component material-cost scenario.

Core energy-system ideas

Platinum price can be volatile and is only one component of fuel-cell or electrolyzer cost.

Material-cost scenarios should use current market assumptions supplied by the analyst.

This site does not provide price forecasts or investment advice.

Important tradeoffs

Platinum intensity and lifetime productivity answer different questions.

Material and performance evidence

Price scenarios should use user-entered current assumptions rather than forecasts embedded in the site.

Lifecycle perspective

Supply resilience can improve through lower loading, longer life, recycling and supplier diversity.
