Finally, it will be interesting to conduct a sensitivity analysis to identify which variables most affect the results. The sensitivity analysis was developed with TopRank 7.5 from Palisade Corporation (2016), and its results are presented in Figure 3. Figure 3 – Tornado graph of the Net present value (NPV) The sensitivity analysis reveals that the variables with the greatest impact on the project’s financial performance are the hourly hydrogen production rate and the hydrogen sale price, as these parameters directly determine revenue streams and cash flow.
