Published: Apr 2024 | Report Code: OMR2028340 | Category : Power Generation & Storage | Delivery Format: /

Hydrogen energy storage market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR of 13.5% during the forecast period (2024-2031).The market growth is attributed to the increasing demand for hydrogen energy storage in stationary power and transportation. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), 2023, hydrogen demand will increase by more than 1.5 times to reach more than 150 Mt by 2030, with nearly 30.0% of that demand coming from new applications. Hydrogen energy storage provides the hydrogen needed to operate and heat fuel cells. The high gravimetric density and stability of the storage tanks make hydrogen suitable for long-term energy storage, including seasonal and annual storage.

Market Dynamics

Increasing Adoption of Hydrogen in Industrial Application

With the increasing adoption of hydrogen in industrial applications such as methanol production, steelmaking, concrete production, and oil refining, hydrogen is increasingly being used in outside-the-box ways to produce both old and new products. This includes industries like steelmaking, where hydrogen is being considered as a replacement for coal and other carbon-emitting fuels that are necessary for the process. Another potential use of hydrogen is in making concrete, which is a very carbon-energy-intensive process that is can be decarbonized by using hydrogen. Additionally, hydrogen is currently used in industrial processes, as rocket fuel, and in fuel cells for electricity generation and powering vehicles.

Growing Hydrogen Energy Storage Projects and Pilot Initiatives

Governments, energy businesses, and research institutes are investing in hydrogen energy storage projects and pilot efforts. The potential of hydrogen as a flexible energy carrier and storage medium is demonstrated by these initiatives, which range in size from small-scale demonstration projects to large-scale integrated systems. For instance, in March 2022, the Government of India, under the national hydrogen mission provided the development of a green hydrogen production capacity of at least 5 MMT (Million Metric Tonne) per annum with an associated renewable energy capacity addition of about 125 GW in the country.

Market Segmentation

Our in-depth analysis of the global hydrogen energy storage market includes the following segments technology, storage form, application, and end-users.

  • Based on technology, the market is sub-segmented into compression, liquefaction, and material-based.
  • Based on storage form, the market is sub-segmented into solid, liquid, and gas.
  • Based on application, the market is sub-segmented into stationary power and transportation.
  • Based on end-users, the market is sub-segmented into residential, commercial, and industrial.

Compression Technology is Projected to Emerge as the Largest Segment

Based on the technology, the global hydrogen energy storage market is sub-segmented into compression, liquefaction, and material-based. Among the secompression sub-segment is expected to hold the largest share of the market. The primary factors supporting the segment's growth include compressed hydrogen used in road transportation fuel cell vehicles, hydrogen filling stations, and stationary power generation on-site. In addition, hydrogen is stored in cylinders using the compression technique for use in the chemical and manufacturing sectors. Owing to the high energy expense of liquefying hydrogen and the range loss experienced as cryogenic liquid hydrogen boils up over many days, compressed gas is favored over liquid hydrogen tanks.

Stationary Power Sub-segment to Hold a Considerable Market Share

Based on application, the global hydrogen energy storage market is sub-segmented into stationary power and transportation. Among these, the stationary power sub-segment is expected to hold a considerable share of the market. The segmental growth is attributed to the increasing use of hydrogen energy storage in stationary power. Stationary fuel cells generate electricity through an electrochemical reaction, not combustion, providing clean, efficient, and reliable off-grid power to homes, businesses, telecommunications networks, utilities, and others. Many companies around the country are adopting fuel cells for primary and backup power including Adobe, Apple, AT&T, CBS, Coca-Cola, Cox Communications, Delmarva Power, eBay, Google, Honda, Microsoft, Target, and Walmart, among others.

Regional Outlook

The global hydrogen energy storage market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (UK, Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and the Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Rest of Asia-Pacific), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America). 

Increasing Adoption of Hydrogen Energy Storage in Asia-Pacific

  • Rising energy use, swift urbanization, and a pressing need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions a contributing towards market growth, by providing viable solution to these issues. Industries such as transportation, with the introduction of fuel cell electric cars, or FCEVs, are driving market growth.
  • According to the Economic Research Institute for ASEAN and East Asia, in January 2024, The proportion of renewable energy-based electricity generation is small, and ASEAN aims to grow its renewable energy capacity to 23.0% of primary energy consumption by 2025. The region still holds potential for future adaptation and transformation, to be guided by the right future development strategy and policies for its energy sector including hydrogen.

Global Hydrogen Energy Storage Market Growth by Region 2024-2031

Europe Holds Major Market Share

Among all the regions, Europe holds a significant share owing to numerous prominent companies and hydrogen energy storage providers in the region such as ITM Power plc,Linde plc,Siemens Energy AG, and Air Liquide International SA among others. The growth is mainly attributed to the increased adoption of hydrogen energy storage in the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. Additionally, collaborative efforts, government incentives, and international partnerships are further propelling the regional market growth. According to the European Commission, in January 2023, the EU Clean Hydrogen Partnership opened a EUR?195?million ($211.0 million) call for proposals to support projects for renewable hydrogen production, storage, and distribution solutions, and to stimulate the use of low-emission hydrogen in hard-to-abate sectors.
