Fuel Cells Market - Forecasts from 2018 to 2023
Fuel cells convert chemical energy from a fuel into electricity with the help of a chemical reaction. Low-temperature fuel cells include Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMDC), Direct Methanol Fuel Cell (DFMC) and Alkaline Fuel Cell. (AFC), while high-temperature fuel cells include Phosphoric Acid Fuel Cell (PAFC), Molten Carbonate Fuel Cells( MCFC), and Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC). The growing trend towards the generation of renewable energy, global initiatives towards collective environmental responsibly and growing awareness regarding clean energy are some of the factors driving the fuel cells market significantly.
During the forecast period, the fuel cells market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 28.21%, reaching US$13.830 billion by 2023, from US$3.114 billion in 2017. North America and Europe hold the largest share in the global market while the market in the Asia Pacific is expected to witness the highest growth rate over the next six years.
