Key Market Trends Fueling Growth

The hydrogen market is experiencing significant growth, as evidenced by Air Liquide's USD456 million investment in the Normand Hy electrolyzer, with a capacity of 200 MW. This collaboration with TotalEnergies is a crucial step towards expanding the renewable and low-carbon hydrogen sector along the Axe Seine. The electrolyzer, which commences operation in 2026, will deliver hydrogen to TotalEnergies refinery, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting clean fuels. The hydrogen generated will be utilized in various applications, including mobility, energy, chemical & refinery processes, and fuel cell applications. The Biden-Harris Administration's focus on low emission fuels and pollution control rules further emphasizes the importance of this development in the hydrogen market. 

Market Challenges

  • The hydrogen market encompasses various hydrogen types, with green and blue hydrogen produced through renewable energy experiencing high production costs. Green hydrogen's levelized cost ranges from USD3 to USD6 per kilogram, making it economically unviable. Production costs are influenced by electrolyzer CAPEX, capacity utilization, and renewable electricity procurement costs. CAPEX covers expenses for the electrolyzer system, balance of plant components, and grid connection. OPEX includes variable and fixed costs. Infrastructure investments, infrared radiation, greenhouse gases, grey hydrogen, generation types, storage and transportation, mobility applications, energy applications, chemical & refinery applications, fuel cell applications, pollution control rules, clean fuels, and the Biden-Harris Administration are significant factors in the hydrogen market landscape.
