Calculate the project’s expected carbon intensity

To be eligible for the Clean Hydrogen investment tax credit, applicants must provide their expected carbon intensity by using the Fuel Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) Model as part of their clean hydrogen project plan. The Fuel LCA Model is a tool to calculate the life cycle carbon intensity of fuels and energy sources used and produced in Canada. The following 2 documents must be used by applicants to calculate the carbon intensity for their clean hydrogen project:

• The Carbon Intensity Modelling Guidance Document – Clean Hydrogen ITC provides carbon intensity modelling instructions to calculate a project’s carbon intensity
• The Carbon Intensity Modelling Workbook – Clean Hydrogen ITC converts applicant data into input data for the Fuel LCA Model
