Green Hydrogen Market Segment Analysis

Electrolyzer Outlook

The alkaline electrolyzer segment dominated the market in 2023. Due to its high scalability, the alkaline electrolysis method is highly preferred for producing green hydrogen. Alkaline electrolysis method is suitable for various applications, from small-scale projects to large industrial operations, as it can be easily scaled up or down to meet varying demands for hydrogen production. Alkaline electrolysis operates at low temperatures and requires less materials, leading to cost savings, reduced energy consumption, and reduced environmental impact. Moreover, it is possible to produce efficient, flexible, cost-effective, environmentally friendly, and high-purity hydrogen through alkaline electrolysis.

  • In September 2024, Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) issued a tender for a 2.5 MW alkaline electrolyser project, which will involve the design, supply, installation, and commissioning of a turnkey solution.

The solid oxide electrolyzer segment is anticipated to expand at the fastest growth rate during the forecast period. Solid oxide electrolyzers use solid ceramic material as an electrolyte to transform energy, which solely allow for the flow of negatively charged oxygen ions at elevated temperatures. By mixing steam and electrons from an external electronic circuit at the cathode, these electrolyzers yield H2 gas and oxygen ions. These electrolyzers are capable of reducing the electrical energy necessary for water splitting into producing hydrogen through responding to heat from multiple sources, particularly nuclear power. Some of the benefits associated with solid oxide electrolyzers in green hydrogen generation include greater efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and environmental friendliness.

  • In May 2024, Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd. (HPCL) commissioned India’s first solid oxide electrolyzer (SOE) at its HP Green R&D Centre, Bengaluru for green hydrogen (GH2) generation, generating 99.99% pure hydrogen using a captive solar plus wind plant and reducing energy consumption by 20-30%.

Source Outlook

The wind energy segment dominated the green hydrogen market in 2023. Wind energy is one of the renewable resources capable of generating clean electricity. It can produce power with no greenhouse emissions and can be placed offshore or onshore.

Wind turbines' low maintenance and operation costs make wind power an economically viable option for producing green hydrogen.

End User Outlook

The refineries segment dominated the market in 2023, accounting for a large market share. Due to their well-developed infrastructure and expertise, refineries can handle large amounts of gases and liquids that can be converted or used for hydrogen production. In addition, several refineries are investing in R&D to develop advanced green hydrogen manufacturing technologies, such as electrolysis and catalysts, contributing to segmental growth.

What are the dynamics of the green hydrogen market?

Driver

Transition toward renewable energy fueling the growth of green hydrogen market

Given its clean-burning nature, high energy content, and versatility, hydrogen is a promising source of energy for a cleaner and sustainable future. It has the ability to replace fossil fuels. Thus, it is used as a primary source of energy in various industries. However, majority of hydrogen produced through steam methane reforming, which generate huge amounts of greenhouse gases and raises environmental concerns. Thus, several key players are investing heavily in developing and commercializing various technologies to facilitate this process, thus driving the market.

Restraint

High production cost

Green hydrogen production is more expensive than fossil fuel-derived hydrogen because electrolyzers and renewable energy sources require substantial investments. Moreover, it may be difficult to store green hydrogen due to the lack of infrastructure available for its production, storage, and distribution. Additionally, producing green hydrogen requires as much as nine liters of water to produce one kilogram of hydrogen.

Opportunity

Research and development initiatives

Rising research and development initiatives by market players to create efficient production and storage solutions create immense opportunities in the market. For instance, Blue Sky Projects has undertaken R&D of third-generation solid oxide fuel cells, reversible solid oxide electrolyzers, seawater electrolysis, plasma pyrolysis, thermo-catalytic pyrolysis, numerous high-entropy alloys for reversible hydrogen storage, and salt cavern studies. However, research and development initiatives are crucial for the development of the hydrogen-based economy.
