Requirements
The features Live streaming and Embed live streams need to be enabled in https://www.youtube.com/features . Please follow the instructions there.
To embed into your website, a linked AdSense account seems to be required.

Introduction to live streaming
Embed
Set the stream to unlisted or public
Go to the “Watch page” (View on watch page link (lower right) in https://www.youtube.com/live_dashboard)
Click Share -> Embed to get the embed HTML code

Now the problem is: every time the stream stops and restarts, the ID changes.
To get a permanent URL, you need to change the link to use the Channel ID (12345 in this example):
Get the Channel ID from https://www.youtube.com/account_advanced. Not the User ID!
Add this into your website HTML, and open the website in anonymous browser window to check if the stream displays without error message.
