The potential of hydrogen as a fuel for the future has been discussed as a part of the energy agenda for decades. Many research projects led by academics and engineers are directed by the future use of hydrogen in the energy supply chain for road transport, and power generation for energy storage. Economy base hydrogen is a long period for many countries being sustainable energy system. The policy maker also learn the implementation and challenges an economy change based on carbon doesn’t sustainable to be economy sustainable hydrogen. Challenge in build infrastructure discussed from perspective planning for the economy of hydrogen production feasibility. In this study, the economic feasibility of hydrogen production was calculated from raw oil palm empty fruit bunches in North Sumatra. Assessment of several factors in getting results BEP production value is 175.965 kg with a value of Rp37.684.532.764 NPV, IRR of 13.976%, and PBP during 6 years, 5 months.
