Hydrogen - Well-to-Wake by pathway

Grey / blue / green hydrogen as marine fuel. Zero tank-to-wake CO₂; WtW depends entirely on production pathway and H₂ storage losses.

TTW CO2 (t)=massCf\text{TTW CO}_2 \text{ (t)} = \text{mass} \cdot C_fEnergy (MJ)=mass (kg)LCV (MJ/kg)\text{Energy (MJ)} = \text{mass (kg)} \cdot \text{LCV (MJ/kg)}WtW (t CO2e)=Energy (MJ)WtW factor (g/MJ)106\text{WtW (t CO}_2 \text{e)} = \frac{\text{Energy (MJ)} \cdot \text{WtW factor (g/MJ)}}{10^6}

WtW factors include upstream extraction, processing, transport, plus tank-to-wake combustion and relevant CH₄/N₂O. FuelEU Maritime Annex II publishes the authoritative defaults.
