Increasing Demand for Stationary Fuel Cells to Augment the Fuel Cell Industry Growth
Fuel cells can be used as stationary power units for primary power, backup power, or combined heat and power (CHP). Based on application, the stationary segment occupies a significant share in the industry. The increasing demand for stationary fuel cells can be attributed to their ability to power anything from a laptop to a single family home or even larger needs (200 kW and above), thus, becoming a versatile option for a wide range of markets like retail, residential, telecommunications, and others. This has significantly contributed to the growth of the fuel cell industry. Meanwhile, the transportation segment is expected to witness a significant growth in the forecast period owing to the increasing adoption of fuel cell powered forklifts and favourable government initiatives, particularly in developed economies.
The Asia Pacific to Provide Significant Growth Opportunities to the Fuel Cell Industry
Geographically, North America and Europe account for a significant share in the industry owing to the stringent environmental regulations and increased government investments to encourage the adoption of renewable energy sources across the regions. The United States is one of the largest global manufacturers of fuel cells and a leading global exporter. Meanwhile, the Asia Pacific is expected to witness a robust growth in the forecast period due to the increasing focus on reducing the economic dependence on fossil fuels, advances in fuel cell technology, and growing shift from the grid to clean, onsite power production.
Fuel Cell: Market Segmentation
Fuel cells are the cells that generate electricity through a mechanism that does not involve combustion. These cells transform the chemical energy in a hydrogen-rich fuel to electricity through an electrolytic process. This means fuel cells produce relatively fewer pollutants compared to the conventional, combustion-based power generation technologies. Further, they are fuel flexible, highly efficient, and operate at very low noise levels. Thus, they serve as an efficient alternative to traditional power generation technologies, offering improved reliability and environmental benefits.
