Key Trends in the Green Hydrogen Market

• Falling Renewable Energy Costs Drive Adoption: The declining costs of solar and wind energy make green hydrogen production increasingly economical. In 2023, 96% of new utility-scale solar PV and offshore wind generation capacity was cheaper than new coal or natural gas plants, according to the International Energy Agency. This cost competitiveness is accelerating electrolyzer installations globally, with projects scaling rapidly across Europe and Asia Pacific.

• Heavy Industry Embraces Decarbonization: Hard-to-abate sectors like steel, cement, and chemicals are turning to green hydrogen as a fossil fuel alternative. The transportation sector emissions increased by 1.6% in 2023 in the US, intensifying the push for clean alternatives. Volvo Trucks announced plans for hydrogen combustion engine trucks with on-road tests starting in 2026, targeting commercial launch by decade's end.
• Policy Support Accelerates Market Growth: Governments worldwide are implementing ambitious hydrogen strategies. The European Union's Green Deal and Hydrogen Strategy aim for net-zero emissions by 2050, while the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act provides substantial tax credits. In February 2024, UN Member States adopted the ITC Strategy to reduce GHG emissions from inland transport, which accounts for 23% of annual emissions.
• Electrolyzer Technology Advancements: Alkaline electrolyzers dominate with mature, cost-effective technology, while innovation continues. In July 2024, F2N Green Hydrogen completed tests on their CORNERSTONE alkaline stack (up to 2 MW), and in March 2024, Greenzo Energy India launched India's first 1 MW Alkaline Electrolyser, advancing domestic production capabilities.
• Export Opportunities Shape Market Dynamics: Resource-rich regions position themselves as global suppliers. Chile's National Green Hydrogen Strategy targets export leadership, while Australia leverages abundant renewable resources. Europe is establishing partnerships with Middle East and Africa for hydrogen imports, creating cross-border infrastructure investments and strategic trade corridors.

Growth Factors in the Green Hydrogen Market

• Stringent Decarbonization Targets: Climate policies worldwide are driving green hydrogen demand. The average carbon footprint in the US is 16 tons, creating urgency for clean alternatives. Countries are setting ambitious net-zero targets, with transport sector demand projected to increase 79% and freight transport 100% by 2050, positioning green hydrogen as essential for achieving climate goals.
• Technological Breakthroughs in Electrolysis: Advances in electrolyzer efficiency are reducing production costs and improving scalability. Innovations in proton exchange membrane and alkaline technologies enable large-scale hydrogen generation. The completion of 500-kW prototypes and commercial launches of multi-megawatt systems demonstrate rapid technological maturation and industrial readiness.
• Industrial Demand for Clean Energy: Heavy industries seek alternatives to fossil fuels for decarbonization. Steel, chemical, and cement production sectors face mounting pressure to reduce carbon footprints. Green hydrogen offers versatile applications as both fuel and feedstock, with companies investing in hydrogen-based production processes to meet sustainability commitments and regulatory requirements.
• Infrastructure Investment Surge: Significant capital is flowing into hydrogen production, storage, and distribution infrastructure. Programs like Horizon Europe and NextGenerationEU accelerate development of pipelines, storage facilities, and refueling stations. In September 2024, bp and Iberdrola formed a 50:50 joint venture for a 25MW green hydrogen project in Spain, expected to avoid 23,000 tons of CO2 annually.
• Renewable Energy Abundance: Regions with vast solar, wind, and hydro resources enable cost-competitive production. India added a record 18.48 GW of renewable energy capacity in 2023-24, while renewable sources represented 24.1% of EU's final energy use in 2023. Brazil announced a $12.5 billion investment plan for new renewable energy projects in 2023, strengthening production capacity.
