Automotive Fuel Cell Market: Segmented: By Electrolyte Type (PEMFC, PAFC, AFC, and MFC), By Vehicle type (Passenger Vehicle and Commercial Vehicle), By Component (Fuel Processor, Power Conditioner, Fuel Stack and Other), And Region - Global Analysis of Market Size, Share & Trends For 2019-2020 And Forecasts To 2031
[ 170 + Pages Research Report ] Automotive Fuel Cell Market to surpass the value USD 99.6 billion by 2031 from USD 2.1 billion in 2021 at a CAGR of 47.4% in the coming years, i.e., 2021-31.
In power automobiles, fuel cells are used, which are propelled by H2 fuel. This sort of fuel is stored in a high-pressure tank and then supplied in a fuel cell stack, wherein oxygen and hydrogen from the air react to generate electricity. Unlike typical fuel cell vehicles, which usually run-on diesel/gasoline, fuel cell vehicles generate electricity using a combination of hydrogen and oxygen. For its operation, fuel cells typically consume oxygen from the atmosphere & compressed hydrogen. Because most fuel cells emit only water and heat, they are designated as zero-emission vehicles. For automakers, automotive technology is an appealing offer since it allows them to produce high-energy cells capable of powering vehicles.
Global Automotive Fuel Cell market is expected to project a notable CAGR of 47.4% in 2031.
The worldwide Automotive Fuel Cell industry is predicted to grow due to factors such as government backing and policies, as well as increased consumer awareness. Furthermore, the Automotive Fuel Cell Market is being driven by new developments in fuel cell technology as well as tight emission regulations.
PEMFC segment to grow with the highest CAGR during 2021-31
The global market is segmented based on electrolyte type into Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC), Phosphoric Acid Fuel Cell (PAFC), Alkaline Fuel Cell (AFC), and Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC). The Proton Exchange MFC accounted for the majority of fuel cell technical advancements. Market expansion is being driven by rising demand for renewable energy generation & reliance on fuel cell-based public transport systems in developed nations. Furthermore, PEMFC's features, such as higher efficiency, low operating costs, quick maintenance, and improved dependability and operability, are expected to increase demand for the technology during the projection period.
Passenger Vehicles segment to grow with the highest CAGR during 2021-31
Based on Vehicle Type, the market is segmented into Passenger Vehicles, and Light Commercial vehicles (LCV). With an increasing adoption rate, rising amount of personal mobility, and multiple emission rules implemented by various governments, the passenger car sub-segment currently dominates the market. Furthermore, many customers and governments are choosing clean and low-emission vehicles, which has increased demand for the fuel cell-based passenger car segment. However, many governments are embracing fuel cell buses to minimize carbon emissions, and the Buses are likely to grow shortly as a result.
Rising Fuel Cell Vehicle Demand in Automotive & Transportation
Fuel-cell vehicles provide a long driving range, quick refilling, quiet operation, and no greenhouse gas or air pollution emissions. As a result, fuel cells are well suited to transportation & automotive applications. Fuel cells are a scalable and versatile source of electricity that can be used in a wide range of transportation applications, including material handling vehicles, busses, trains, autos, defense vehicles, and light commercial vehicles (LCVs). In advertising applications, fuel cells are additionally used as stationary fuel sources. Fuel cells can be used as a major source of energy, a backup source of energy, and a source of heat and energy in combined heat and power systems. Furthermore, governments are taking steps to promote the use of fuel cells for transport, which could help the transportation and automotive segments of the fuel cell market grow even faster.
Increase R&D efforts and Investment
The majority of global R&D efforts are concentrated on the development and advancement of fuel cell-powered cars, which is likely to open up new market prospects. However, research and development activities relating to utilities & UAVs for the defense sector, as well as portable power production units, have expanded significantly in recent years. The increased attention of governments throughout the world on the use of sustainable energy sources has increased overall investments in fuel cell-based electricity generation. Result of which, the increased investment improves the future and current growth of the innovation in the fuel cells market.
High cost of hydrogen fuel station
In comparison to petroleum, diesel, as well as other fuels, the cost of establishing a hydrogen fuel station & supporting infrastructure is extremely high. The development of hydrogen fueling infrastructures around the world has been hampered as a result of this. This is because hydrogen is a highly flammable fuel, which necessitates expensive equipment as well as appropriate safeguards and safety measures. As a result, car costs rise, putting a damper on the global adoption of automotive fuel cell vehicles.
Company Overview, Business Strategy, Key Product Offerings, Financial Performance, Key Performance Indicators, Risk Analysis, Recent Development, Regional Presence, SWOT Analysis
Global Automotive Fuel Cell market is segmented based on regional analysis into five major regions: North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Middle East and Africa. The North American area has the highest market share and is expected to grow at the fastest rate in the future years. The tremendous demand for cars associated with fuel cells increased R&D, and innovations coming to market are the reasons why North America is the largest market. The United States and Canada both have the most hydrogen fuel outlets and are home to the world's top fuel cell manufacturers. Even though demand for vehicle gasoline is predicted to rise in nearly every region.
Impact of Covid-19 on Automotive Fuel Cell Market
The impact of the pandemic on supply chains will influence hydrogen-based technologies, which require a well-coordinated supply chain and a large amount of cash to demonstrate. The COVID-19 epidemic has impacted the current hydrogen consumption of oil refining, steel production, and the chemicals sector, according to the IEA. According to the International Energy Agency, gasoline consumption demand for critical hydrogen-based chemicals (such as methanol) would fall due to pandemics. Sales of hydrogen-based transportation fuels increased in the forecast period. Overall, the global epidemic has had a significant influence on the fuel cell sector.
