45V Biomass to Hydrogen Calculator

This calculator estimates the Carbon Intensity (CI) of biomass-to-hydrogen production pathways utilizing gasification, in accordance with Section 45V. While the current 45V model supports only corn stover as a feedstock, this emulator has been expanded to include forest residue for modeling purposes. The emission factors used for forest residue are fully aligned with those in the 2024 R&D Argonne GREET model.
