The paper describes transmission cost of nuclear off-peak power for water electrolysis. The cost of transmission could be evaluated ca. 1.5¥/kWh when the electrolyser receives the power from a 6kV wire and ca. 0.7¥/kWh from a several ten kV wire. Marked reduction of the transmission cost of the off-peak power arose from enlarged capacity factor of the power transmission system.
