Hydrogen Fuel Cell Market Segmentation by Application (Vehicular, Non-vehicular); by Technology (Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell [PEMFC], Phosphoric Acid Fuel Cell [PAFC], Alkaline Fuel Cell [AFC], Microbial Fuel Cell [MFC], and Others)-Global Demand Analysis & Opportunity Outlook 2030

Global Hydrogen Fuel Cell Market Highlights over 2022-2030

The global hydrogen fuel cell market is estimated to grow at a significant CAGR over the forecast period, i.e., 2022-2030. The growth of the market can be attributed to growing initiatives and investments by various governments for the development of hydrogen fuel cell infrastructure over rising environmental concerns. Hydrogen fuel cells are electrochemical power generators that uses hydrogen to cleanly and efficiently produce electricity. Hydrogen is a well-known low-carbon transport fuel, and the rising demand for hydrogen fuel cells in vehicles for sporty advances and ecological power generation are further expected to propel the market growth. According to the International Energy Agency, as of June 2021, early 40,000 fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) were on road globally.

However, challenges, such as reducing cost and improving durability, associated with commercialization of fuel cells are one of the key restraints to the growth of the market. Fuel cell systems must be cost-competitive and be more efficient in the power supply when compared with traditional power systems. Moreover, the high cost of carbon fiber that is required for hydrogen fuel tanks is further expected to hinder the growth of the market.

The market is segmented by application into vehicular and non-vehicular, out of which, the vehicular segment is anticipated to hold the largest share of the market over the forecast period on the back of several countries investing in fuel cell technology to improve transportation infrastructure to reduce emissions.

Based on technology, the market is segmented into proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), phosphoric acid fuel cell (PAFC), alkaline fuel cell (AFC), microbial fuel cell (MFC), and others, out of which, proton exchange membrane fuel cell segment is projected to hold the largest market share over the forecast period owing to its advantages, such as high efficiency, low operational cost, quick maintenance, and enhanced reliability and operability, over others. They are mostly used as backup power and portable power in small distributed generation and transportation.
