Hydrogen Market to Soar to $410.6 billion by 2030, Fueled by Growing Clean Energy Demand


Delray Beach, FL, July 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The global hydrogen market is experiencing robust growth, driven by rising demand for clean energy solutions and the urgent need to reduce carbon emissions. According to MarketsandMarkets, the hydrogen market was valued at approximately $242.7 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach $410.6 billion by 2030, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.8%. This surge is underpinned by significant investments, supportive policies, and technological advancements across production, storage, and end-use sectors.

Governments worldwide are actively enacting favorable regulations and providing financial incentives to accelerate the adoption of hydrogen technologies. These initiatives include funding for research and development, subsidies for hydrogen production and infrastructure, and legislation that encourages the use of hydrogen across various industries. Such supportive measures are key factors driving the growth of the hydrogen market, as they lower barriers to entry, stimulate innovation, and promote large-scale deployment of hydrogen solutions in sectors like transportation, power, and industry.

Recent Developments:

  • In July 2023, Air Products & Chemicals, Inc. announced that it has been chosen as the hydrogen and technology provider for Alberta's first hydrogen fuel cell passenger vehicle fleet by Edmonton International Airport. Air Products will deploy a mobile hydrogen refueler at the airport to deliver hydrogen for the Toyota Mirai hydrogen fuel cell vehicle fleet.
  • In July 2023, Air Liquide and KBR collaborated to provide fully integrated low-carbon ammonia solutions based on Autothermal Reforming (ATR) technology. Air Liquide is a global leader in ATR technology, which is one of the best options for large-scale production of low-carbon hydrogen (H2), which is then mixed with nitrogen (N2) to make low-carbon ammonia (NH3).
  • In April 2023, Linde plc has signed a long-term arrangement with Evonik, a well-known specialty chemicals firm, to supply green hydrogen. Linde will build, own, and operate a nine-megawatt alkaline electrolyzer facility on Jurong Island in Singapore under this arrangement. This plant's major output will be green hydrogen, which Evonik wants to employ in the synthesis of methionine, an essential element in animal feed.
  • In April 2023, Air Liquide entered into an agreement with TotalEnergies to create an equally owned joint venture to develop a network of hydrogen stations. This initiative will help facilitate access to hydrogen, enabling the development of its use for goods transportation and further strengthening the hydrogen sector.
  • In October 2022, Hexagon Purus and Lhyfe collaborated for the production of green and renewable hydrogen for transportation and industrial applications.
  • In May 2022, Air Products Inc, OQ, and ACWA Power jointly signed an agreement for the world’s largest green hydrogen-based ammonia production powered by renewable energy.
