EHC vs. Mechanical Compressor — Total Cost of Ownership Calculator

EHC vs. Mechanical Compressor — Total Cost of Ownership Calculator

Compare the 5-year (or longer) total cost of ownership between electrochemical hydrogen compression and traditional reciprocating mechanical compression. All calculations use published industry benchmarks.

Typical EHC range: 50–500
Standard: 8,000 h
US industrial average ~$0.07–$0.12
Range: 5–35 MPa
Note: At flow rates above 500 Nm³/h, mechanical reciprocating compressors may be more economical due to proven scalability at high throughput. The figures below are estimates—contact our engineers for a site-specific analysis.
