In our description, we concentrate on the most complex model first. Next, we indicate how the hydrogen model is derived from this. The figure on the right shows the electricity model. The main assumptions, inputs and outputs of the module are shown as well as the route from inputs to outputs. It illustrates the diversity of technologies that can be used to produce electricity as well as the two stages for arriving at the output demand for primary energy carriers – the investment strategy and the operational strategy.

* Hydrogen can be traded. Therefore, a trade model is added, similar to the fuel trade models for fossil fuels (See Chapter on Resources).

* Intermittency does not play an important role as hydrogen can be stored to some degree. Therefore there are no equations simulation the role of system integration included.
