N2 - India is one of the most populous countries in the world, and this has implications for its energy consumption. The country's electricity generation and road transport are mostly dominated by fossil fuels. As such, this study assessed the techno-economics and environmental impact of a solar photovoltaic power plant for both electricity and hydrogen production at five different locations in India (i.e., Chennai, Indore, Kolkata, Ludhiana, and Mumbai). The hydrogen load represents a refueling station for 20 hydrogen fuel cell vehicles with a tank capacity of 5 kg for each location. According to the results, the highest hydrogen production occurred at Kolkata with 82,054 kg/year, followed by Chennai with 79,030 kg/year. Ludhiana, Indore, and Mumbai followed with 78,524 kg/year, 76,935 kg/year and 74,510 kg/year, respectively. The levelized cost of energy (LCOE) for all locations ranges between 0.41 and 0.48 $/kWh. Mumbai recorded the least LCOH of 3.00 $/kg. The total electricity that could be generated from all five cities combined was found to be about 25 GWh per annum, which translates to an avoidable emission of 20,744.07 metric tons of CO2e. Replacing the gasoline that could be used to fuel the vehicles with hydrogen will result in a CO2 reduction potential of 2452.969 tons per annum in India. The findings indicate that the various optimized configurations at the various locations could be economically viable to be developed.
