Global Hydrogen Market Overview
The global Hydrogen Market was valued at USD 195.43 Billion in 2023 and is predicted to reach USD 335.82 Billion by 2032 with a CAGR of 6.2% during the forecast period. By Volume, the market was stood XX BN Cubic Meter and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of XX% between 2023 and 2032. Hydrogen is considered as a promising source of clean energy on the earth. A positive outlook towards metals, the glass industry, semiconductors, propellant fuel, and chemicals will stimulate business growth. Several aspects are contributing to the growth of the global hydrogen market. Factors such as a growing preference for on-site generation systems for hydrogen, rising technological advancements, and increasing adoption of hydrogen in various applications across several end-user industries are expected to push the market's growth in the coming years.
Hydrogen is used to process crude oil into refined fuels, such as diesel and gasoline, and eliminate contaminants, such as sulphur, from these fuels. Strong oil demand growth is contributing to a more optimistic outlook for the European refinery market. Rising investment by refiners towards upgradation and expansion of refineries to meet sulfur and emission regulation will positively encourage the hydrogen generation market size in coming years.
The rising demand for ammonia, owing to the increasing use of ammonia-based fertilizers to enhance productivity and maintain crop nutrition, and growing demand for the gas from the refinery sector due to the stringent sulfur reduction regulations, are some of the key attributable factors that are driving the growth of hydrogen industry. In the transport sector, electric vehicles driven by hydrogen fuel cells hold the potential to replace existing vehicles, wherein water would be the only exhaust. This can transform the automotive industry, which currently solely depends on fossil fuel. However, high cost of hydrogen as compared to fossil fuels may act as restrain for hydrogen generation market growth in near future. Key participants in the industry are focusing on technological advancements and innovation to minimize the cost of renewable-powered electrolysis and largely commercialize the production of hydrogen. The key players operating in the market includes Air Liquide, Air Products & Chemicals Inc., Cummins Inc., Iwatani Corporation, Messer Group GmbH, Showa Denκο Κ.Κ., Ally Hi-Tech Co. Ltd., CALORIC, Nuvera Fuel Cells LLC, Plug Power Inc., Nel ASA, Taiyo Nippon Sanso Corporation, Ballard Power Systems, Mahler AGS GmbH, Teledyne Technologies Incorporated, Linde plc..
In this research report, the hydrogen market is segmented by type, application and region.
Analysis by Type
Based on types, the market of hydrogen is bifurcated into compressed hydrogen and liquid hydrogen. The Compressed hydrogen type dominates the segment accounting for more than 55% market revenue share in 2019 due to increasing industrialization and rising adaption of fuel cell technology. In addition to this, transportation is the major sector which is likely to drive the segment of compressed hydrogen gas. Also, the rising demand for H2fuel cells for fuelling stations is expected to augment the growth.
Moreover, the liquid hydrogen has great importance in space-exploration programs as a rocket fuel with oxygen or fluorine as the oxidizer. Mainly, the segment is growing on account of the growing usage of green products as the combustion of liquid hydrogen does not produce any pollutants. Simultaneously, the increasing demand for renewable energy is expected to impel the demand for the product in the near future. Therefore, the rising demand for green power and the ongoing industrialization, and the increasing importance of renewable energy storage are expected to impact the growth positively.
Analysis by Application
By application, the market of hydrogen is bifurcated into refining, metalworking, and others. Owing to the growing demand for hydrogen from the refining industry, the segment is a dominating segment with an accounted market share of 49.61% in 2019 in terms of revenue and is projected to maintain its dominancy over the forecast period. Generally, it is used to process crude oil into refined fuels, such as gasoline and diesel, and it is also used to lower the sulfur content of diesel fuel.
