Colombia Hydrogen Generation Market Growth & Trends
The colombia hydrogen generation market size is expected treach USD 766.97 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 9.8% from 2025 t2030, according ta new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The growth can be attributed tthe rising demand for cleaner fuel and increasing governmental regulations for the desulphurization of petroleum products. Hydrogen is an effective energy carrier, which is expected tcontribute significantly tits further penetration intnewer markets. Colombia’s electricity demand is anticipated twitness an increase of nearly two-thirds of the current demand over the forecast period. Focus on projects related tdistributed power & utility is anticipated tbolster the demand for hydrogen generation in the country.
The steam methane reforming segment was dominant in 2021 with a revenue share of 95.21% and is expected tcontinue leading over the forecast period. Steam methane reforming is a method for producing hydrogen, along with other gases including carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. The steam methane reforming process is a mature and advanced technology in hydrogen generation. The growing demand for hydrogen generation across Colombia is a crucial driving factor for steam methane reformers technology, as steam methane reforming is the most economical method for hydrogen generation.
Based on application, the ammonia production segment led the market in 2021 with a share of more than 50.0%. The ammonia segment will keep its lead during the forecast period. The future growth of the hydrogen generation industry is anticipated thave steady growth as application cases for hydrogen increase. For instance, the development of a renewable ammonia project near the city of Barranquilla, on Colombia's Caribbean coast, has been agreed tby local power company AlumbradPъblicBarranquilla (APBAQ) and Colombian fertilizer manufacturer Monуmeros. A 350 MW offshore wind farm supported by Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners will power the manufacturing of ammonia and is anticipated tstart producing power in 2026. The Colombian government unveiled an ambitious offshore wind energy program in March. The Caribbean coast holds the majority of the 50 GW potential.
Based on systems, the captive generation segment led the market in 2021. Captive generation of hydrogen is defined as on-site generation that abolishes several problems linked tthe conveyance and distribution of hydrogen, and therefore the market is expected tgrow substantially. Captive hydrogen production is the most commonly used supply route in Colombia and neighboring countries and the region is engaged with small volumes of merchant hydrogen production. The captive generation segment is expected tkeep its lead during the forecast period.
Growing investments in smart “energy-saving” residential and commercial buildings are expected tprovide an impetus toward the adoption of hydrogen for energy generation. Hydrogen is a financially viable option tinvestors as they alscomply with federal and environmental regulations, catering tthe ever-increasing demand for energy. Factors including shifting trends toward cleaner energy and favorable government regulations are contributing tthe development of the market for hydrogen generation in Colombia.

Colombia Hydrogen Generation Market Report Highlights
- Steam methane reforming held the largest share of 92.5% in 2024. and is further expected twitness steady growth over the forecast period
- Ammonia manufacturing (1.2 Mt2/year) and oil refining (1.3 Mt H2/year), as well as demand from other sectors like electronics, food, processing, glass-making, and transportation, are the sources of pure hydrogen demand.
- Various strategic initiatives were recorded over the past few years tboost the growth of the market. For instance, The Colombian government has released a Hydrogen Roadmap that lays out the next 30 years (until 2050) for the research, generation, and use of hydrogen as a cleaner energy source and supports Colombia's move toward clean energy
- The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) provided funding for the development of the regulatory sandbox of this plan, which was created with the assistance of the consulting firm i-deals. The roadmap aims tgive Colombia the resources it needs tbenefit from the wind and solar energy projects it has been creating, due ta strong regulatory environment that includes significant tax advantages
