Green Hydrogen Market by Generation Process (PEM, Alkaline, Solid Oxide), Energy Source (Wind, Hydropower), Application (Fueling, Feedstock), End User (Transportation, Chemical Production, Power Generation), and Geography-Global Forecast to 2031
The research report titled 'Green Hydrogen Market by Generation Process (PEM, Alkaline, Solid Oxide), Energy Source (Wind, Hydropower), Application (Fueling, Feedstock), End User (Transportation, Chemical Production, Power Generation), and Geography-Global Forecast to 2031' from Meticulous Research(R) provides an in-depth analysis of the green hydrogen market across five major geographies and focuses on the current market trends, market sizes, market shares, recent developments, and forecasts to 2031.
The green hydrogen market is projected to reach $18.8 billion by 2031, at a CAGR of 43.1% from 2024 to 2031.
The growth of this market is driven by the increasing demand for green hydrogen in fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs), the increasing use of green hydrogen in chemical production, and rising government initiatives for net zero-emission. However, the high cost of production restrains the growth of this market.
Increasing investments by market players in electrolysis technology development and the growing adoption of green hydrogen across various industries to reduce carbon footprints are expected to create market growth opportunities. However, the complex and costly storage & transportation processes pose significant challenges for players operating in this market.
Additionally, the increasing use of water and electricity for green hydrogen production is a prominent trend in this market.
The green hydrogen market is segmented by generation process (proton exchange membrane electrolysis, alkaline electrolysis, and solid oxide electrolysis), energy source (Wind, solar, hydropower, and other energy sources), application (fueling, feedstock, heat processing, energy storage, and other applications), end-user (transportation [shipping, aviation, cars, railway, and trucks], chemical production, healthcare, steel production, petroleum refinery, power generation, and other end users), and geography. This study also evaluates industry competitors and analyses the market at the regional and country levels.
Based on generation process, the green hydrogen market is segmented into proton exchange membrane electrolysis, alkaline electrolysis, and solid oxide electrolysis. In 2024, the proton exchange membrane electrolysis segment is expected to account for the largest share of the green hydrogen market. This segment's large market share can be attributed to the increasing adoption of PEM electrolysis, which operates efficiently at high current densities and is environmentally friendly. Additionally, the proliferation of low-carbon hydrogen production projects and the rising focus on advancing fuel cell technology contribute to the growth of this segment. Moreover, the proton exchange membrane electrolysis segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
Based on energy source, the green hydrogen market is segmented into wind, solar, hydropower, and other energy sources. In 2024, the hydropower segment is expected to account for the largest share of the green hydrogen market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the increasing demand for renewable energy in hydrogen production, driven by government initiatives aimed at reducing dependency on fossil fuels for power generation. Moreover, the hydropower segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
Based on application, the green hydrogen market is segmented into fueling, feedstock, heat processing, energy storage, and other applications. In 2024, the feedstock segment is expected to account for the largest share of the green hydrogen market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the increasing adoption of green hydrogen in chemical production and increasing government initiatives promoting its use due to its zero-carbon footprint.
However, the fueling segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This segment's growth is driven by the increasing adoption of green hydrogen as a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels and government initiatives aimed at promoting clean & sustainable energy sources to achieve zero-carbon objectives.
Based on end user, the green hydrogen market is segmented into transportation, chemical production, healthcare, steel production, petroleum refinery, power generation, and other end users. In 2024, the chemical production segment is expected to account for the largest share of the green hydrogen market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the growing adoption of green hydrogen to reduce carbon emissions, the increasing use of green hydrogen to produce sustainable methanol and ammonia, the increasing demand for highly efficient energy sources for refineries, and the rising use of green methanol as a clean energy resource.
However, the transportation segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This segment's growth is driven by the increasing adoption of fuel-cell electric vehicles (FCEVs), rising demand for green hydrogen to reduce carbon emissions, increasing fueling solutions for various transportation and motive power applications, and the increasing use of green hydrogen to minimize greenhouse gas emissions, reduce oil dependency, and decrease air pollutants.
Based on geography, the green hydrogen market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. In 2024, North America is expected to account for the largest share of the green hydrogen market. North America's significant market share can be attributed to the increasing adoption of clean energy solutions in sectors like power generation and transportation and rising government initiatives & investments in green hydrogen production to reduce emissions.
However, the market in Asia-Pacific is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The growth of this regional market is driven by large-scale investments in clean hydrogen production, increasing adoption of green hydrogen in power generation, and initiatives to expand infrastructure capabilities for large-scale green hydrogen storage.
