Asia-Pacific is expected to exhibit CAGR of 8.7% during 2021-2031.
The major companies profiled in hydrogen fuel cell market analysis include AFC Energy plc, Ballard Power Systems, Bloom Energy, Ceres, Doosan Fuel Cell Co. Ltd, FuelCell Energy, Inc., Intelligent Energy, Nedstack Fuel Cell Technology, Plug Power Inc and SFC Energy AG.
Rising adoption of electric and hybrid vehicles, increasing demand in the telecommunications, automotive & residential micro-CHP sector, and diminishing dependence on non-renewable energy sources are some of the factors boosting the hydrogen fuel cell market growth.
As the fuel is broken up into protons and electrons at the anode and oxygen is available at the cathode, hydrogen is formed. These electrons complete a circuit between the electrodes, meanwhile the protons travel through the electrolyte medium.
After completing this chemical reaction, all the negative and positive ions and oxygen combine at the cathode to generate electricity as the final product, coupled with water and heat as byproducts.
The automobile sector has experienced remarkable expansion as a result of rising vehicle demand. However, in recent years, there has been a growing awareness and issue about the negative environmental impact of fossil fuel engines, which produce considerable amounts of greenhouse gases.
