Hydrogen Electrolyzer Market: Current Analysis and Forecast (2021-2027)
Global hydrogen electrolyzer market is expected to cross the market valuation of US$ 500 million by 2027 and is expected to grow at a significant growth rate during the forecast period (2021-2027). The power generation units across the globe shifting from traditional battery-based systems for power storage to novel technologies such as hydrogen electrolyzers are driving the market outlook. In addition, surging need for highly efficient and low-space utilizing energy storage systems to handle the electricity produced from solar, wind, and hydropower generation units are primary factors driving the global hydrogen electrolyzers market during the forecast period. In addition, increasing research & development activities to produce green hydrogen coupled with rising government spending on H2 energy design & development programs will influence product penetration over the forecast timeline. For instance, in 2019, IEA introduced multiple policy targets including the Green Act for a variety of sectors.
The sudden outbreak of coronavirus has caused health emergency across the globe that has significantly affected the various industrial verticals. The pandemic has halted the activities in various industries due to the surge in active virus cases that led to urgent shutdown of ongoing work. The economic crisis following the Covid-19 pandemic may cause a significant delay to the adoption and commercial roll-out of clean hydrogen. It may even permanently endanger the capacity of the clean hydrogen sector to take-up its role as the missing link in the energy transition.
Green Hydrogen, Areva H2gen, Giner Inc., Enapter S.r.l., MVS Engineering Pvt. Ltd, Pure Energy Centre, Cummins Inc., ITM Power plc, McPhy Energy S.A, Siemens AG are some of the prominent players operating in the global hydrogen electrolyzer market. Several M&As along with partnerships have been undertaken by these players to facilitate customers with hi-tech and innovative products/technologies.
Insights Presented in the Report
