Green hydrogen market size to grow by USD 14.74 billion between 2022 and 2027, APAC will account for 57% of the market growth, Technavio

NEW YORK, March 11, 2024 -- The green hydrogen market size is forecasted to increase by USD 14.74 billion from 2022 to 2027, at a CAGR of 45.51%, according to the recent market study by Technavio. APAC is set to significantly rule the global market, accounting for a substantial 57% of anticipated growth in the forecast period. Technavio analysts have meticulously outlined the regional dynamics and catalysts shaping market trends. The surge in APAC's market stems from escalating investments across key sectors including chemicals, fertilizers, refining, glass, semiconductors, metal processing, and food. Notably, the refining sector in APAC is experiencing a robust upswing, propelled by soaring local demand for refined petroleum products such as gasoline and diesel, particularly in high-GDP-growth nations like India and China. Regulatory mandates mandating sulfur level reductions in diesel production are fueling demand for hydrogen, poised to drive market expansion throughout the forecast horizon.

Market Segmentation:

The market is segmented by end-user (chemical, power, industrial, and mobility and others), technology (alkaline electrolyzer and polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) electrolyzer), and geography (APAC, Europe, North America, Middle East and Africa, and South America).

  • The market growth in the chemical segment will be significant over the forecast period. The chemical industry is the largest end-user of green hydrogen. Green hydrogen is widely used in the manufacturing of chemical compounds such as paints, synthetic fibers, nylon, and polyurethane elastomers and in the plasticization of plastics. The increasing demand for green feedstock or precursor molecules such as ammonia and methanol is another major factor driving the growth of the segment.

Key Drivers:

  • Growing adoption of clean fuel
  • Growing adoption of fuel cell-powered vehicles
  • Increasing focus on decarbonization

Green hydrogen generates zero emissions. Hence, many organizations are replacing fossil fuels such as coal or natural gas with green hydrogen. Green hydrogen power generation offers several benefits. For instance, the extra energy generated through renewable sources such as wind turbines or solar PVs can be used for green hydrogen production. The produced hydrogen finds various applications across different sectors, including transport, industry, or utility for grid injection. Moreover, renewable power plants are generally located at distant locations from end-users. In such cases, the generated power can be used for electrolysis for the production of green hydrogen, thereby making transportation commoditized and unconstrained by grid connection, similar to LNG. Such benefits are increasing the use of green energy as a clean fuel, which is driving the growth of the market.

Major Trends:

  • Increasing initiatives by the governments
  • Growing focus on using clean hydrogen in refineries
  • Rising usage of fuel cells in the stationary power sector

Key Challenges:

  • High initial cost
  • Lack of refueling infrastructure for FCVs
  • Competition from alternative technologies

Analyst Review

In the electrolysis technologies and FCEVs (Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles), the emergence of green hydrogen presents a transformative opportunity for the power industry and the broader mobility industry. Despite high initial production costs and an under-developed market, the potential for green hydrogen remains vast.

One of the primary drivers behind the green hydrogen market is its ability to leverage low variable electricity costs from solar energy and wind energy, supported by technical advancement and production advancement. As raw material costs decline and product efficiency improves, green hydrogen becomes increasingly competitive.

Technological breakthroughs in new composites further enhance the viability of green hydrogen, reducing wind energy costs and the fixed cost of installation associated with electrolysis. Moreover, the marginal maintenance required for green hydrogen infrastructure ensures reliability in load conditions, especially during periods of excess energy from solar and wind sources.

In the power sector, integration with gas turbines and conventional fossil fuels-based power plants facilitates the transition to green hydrogen, mitigating load fluctuations and enabling efficient energy tracking. This synergy between renewable energy and gas turbines underscores the versatility of green hydrogen across developed and developing countries.

Governments worldwide are committing to net-zero emissions pacts, driving investment in the technology required for efficient use of green hydrogen. With commercial availability expanding, the end-use industry is diversifying, encompassing applications in mobility, chemical, power, grid injection, industrial sectors, and beyond.

As the global green hydrogen market matures over the forecast period, it will play a pivotal role in the transition towards a more sustainable energy landscape. By leveraging the potential of fuel cells and embracing clean energy solutions, stakeholders can accelerate the adoption of green hydrogen, paving the way for a greener, more resilient future.
