According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Green Hydrogen Market is accounted for $4.5 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $36.3 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 41.6% during the forecast period. Green hydrogen is produced by the electrolysis of water for which electric power is utilized which is generated by renewable energy sources such as wind energy or solar energy. The presence of favorable government policies pushing toward the hydrogen economy along with growing environmental concerns regarding increasing carbon emissions from fossil fuel usage are expected to drive the demand for the hydrogen economy.
According to the US Department of Energy, a traditional combustion-based power plant generates electricity at 33 to 35% efficiency, but hydrogen-based fuel cell systems can create electricity at up to 60% efficiency. According to the International Energy Agency, about 26,000 passenger cars, 6000 buses, 3000 medium-duty trucks, 49 light commercial vehicles, and 14 heavy-duty trucks used hydrogen fuel cells.
Market Dynamics:
Driver:
Rise in use of green hydrogen fuels
The utilization of hydrogen fuel cells produces no greenhouse gases or other pollutants. Hydrogen fuel cells are found to be more efficient than traditional combustion-based power plants. The growing acceptance of using hydrogen as a form of energy is driving growth in the market.
Restraint:
Safety Concerns
Hydrogen is highly flammable and volatile substances and extensive safety measures are required to prevent leakage and explosions. The production of hydrogen in general and green hydrogen in particular requires more energy than other fuels. Safety concerns and high energy consumption are the factors restraining the growth of the market.
Opportunity:
Rise in awareness
The increased awareness of the usage of hydrogen as an energy carrier is predicted to propel the market growth. It is a sustainable energy source. In addition, growth in environmental issues, highlighting the need for renewable energy generation to reduce emission levels fuels the growth of market expansion.
Threat:
High overall cost
High cost associated with the production, conversion, storage and transportation impede the growth. High initial investment requirements for setting up hydrogen infrastructure as well as prohibitive maintenance costs are the major factors that limit the green hydrogen market growth.
Covid-19 Impact
The green hydrogen industry was unaffected by COVID-19 disruption. However, coronavirus-related lockdowns posed a number of problems for industry participants, including disrupted supply chains, logistical difficulties in shipping end goods, and recruiting staff from quarantines. In addition, the pandemic ensured a strong rise in renewable energy market, resulting in constant increase in energy demand. Following relaxation of lockdown mandates in many countries, the green hydrogen market is quickly returning to normal and is expected to pick up even further.
The alkaline electrolyzer segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
The alkaline electrolyzer segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth, due to it being the conventional electrolyzer technology used in projects. It uses a liquid alkaline solution of potassium or sodium hydroxide as its electrolyte and it has higher operating hours. Additionally, the availability of these at a reduced price is anticipated to stimulate expansion in this industry.
The transport segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The transport segment is anticipated to witness the fastest CAGR growth during the forecast period, due to its energy efficiency. In transportation, hydrogen can be used in fuel cells or internal combustion engines. A hydrogen fuel cell is two to three times more efficient than an internal combustion engine fuelled by gasoline is the major factor propelling the growth.
Region with Largest share:
Asia Pacific is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period owing to increasing viability of the technology. Demand for hydrogen in the steelmaking and automobile industries quickly expanding, where manufacturing companies are concentrated. Therefore, these are the elements driving the region's expansion.
Region with highest CAGR:
Europe is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing to the rising demand for renewable energy sources. Emergence of advanced electrolysis technologies, rising demand for cleaner energy from all major industry sectors and escalating environmental issues arising from carbon emissions are the prospects fueling the growth of the region.
