The “Hydrogen Engine: Global Markets” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
The hydrogen engine market was valued at $2.6 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach $10.5 billion by 2028. This market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 26.8% between 2023 and 2028.
Nowadays, most countries worldwide are looking for alternative solutions to decarbonization. Hydrogen as a fuel is one of the best alternative solutions for carbon emissions-related issues. In the automotive industry, heady duty trucks are the major CO2 gas emitter in the environment. Therefore, automakers are working significantly on hydrogen-powered trucks.
Currently, fuel-cell electric vehicles are available in most developed countries, such as the U.S., Germany, Japan and others. Since these vehicles are very costly compared to conventional vehicles, the governments of individual countries are providing incentives to vehicle purchasers and OEM companies to decrease the overall cost of vehicles.
Currently, proton membrane exchange technology is the main technology used for fuel cells because it can produce electricity frequently, which helps propel vehicles continuously. However, fuel cell companies and automotive companies are working together to develop different types of fuel cells for vehicles, such as phosphoric acid fuel cells and others. Still, this option could increase the overall price of vehicles.
Most OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) companies, such as Hyundai, Toyota, Volvo & Daimler, and others, are engaged in producing fuel cell vehicles. However, many OEM companies are working with fuel cell manufacturing companies to design and produce a complete vehicle. Conversely, a few OEM and aftermarket companies can convert vehicles from gasoline/diesel-powered to hydrogenpowered vehicles. Once the hydrogen infrastructure is ready, fleet operators of trucks, taxis, rented vehicles and the like could choose the conversion option.
Currently, fuel cells are integrated with passenger cars, buses and commercial vehicles. Due to the high cost of fuel cell trucks, the commercial vehicle segment dominates the global market. For passenger cars, only two companies, Hyundai and Toyota, offer commercial fuel cell cars across the globe. In comparison, most of the companies are working on heavy-duty trucks.
The study examines the scenario for fuel-cell electric vehicles and provides the market potential for such vehicles in the coming five years. The study also provides market dynamics such as drivers, restraints, trends and opportunities in the global market. Furthermore, the report includes a chapter deliberately for fundings and M&A related information.
