什么是氢气产生?
氢气生产是生产氢气以用作燃料或能源的过程。它可以透过多种方式完成,包括水电解、天然气重整和生物质气化。透过电解,将电流施加到水以将其分解成其组成元素:氢和氧。产生的氢气用作燃料来源或储存在燃料电池中。天然气重整是分解气体分子以产生氢气和其他气体的过程。最后,生物质气化是分解有机物产生氢气和其他气体的过程。它是一种高效率的能源,因为它是清洁燃烧的,燃烧时不排放任何二氧化碳。它也比化石燃料更轻,因此更容易运输。
全球COVID-19大流行对氢气生产和需求产生了严重影响。化学工业遭受重创,石油和天然气勘探活动在疫情期间受到重创。随着疫情期间对医疗用品的需求不断增长,现有的氢气储备已被用来满足这些需求。电力产业一直处于氢需求的前沿,占据了大部分市场需求。政府实施的法规,例如封锁、限制国际旅行和社交距离,对各国的金融状况产生了不利影响。然而,在后疫情时代,各国政府一直热衷于利用工业和运输部门关闭带来的排放减少来推动对包括氢在内的清洁燃料替代品的需求,这对市场产生了积极影响。
目前,许多国家的管理当局正在采取重大措施来减少汽车产业的碳排放,增加了电动车的销售量。除此之外,氢气被广泛用作发电厂发电机的冷却剂,这是另一个成长诱导因素。此外,多个项目旨在降低氢气生产技术的成本和环境影响。基于核能的氢气生产被认为是最大限度减少碳足迹和应对全球气候变迁的经济解决方案,这进一步推动了全球玻璃纯化、化肥生产和半导体製造对氢气生产的需求。除此之外,氢在氢化聚合物和氢化金属等新材料生产中的广泛采用,与传统材料相比,提供了更高的性能并节省了成本,为市场提供了推动力。此外,经济高效、节能的加氢站的开发和建设正在创造积极的市场前景。此外,不断的技术进步和成本降低使氢气生产变得更加经济实惠和容易获得。这正在推动该行业的投资,从而有助于为氢基产品和服务创造新市场。
The global hydrogen generation market size reached US$ 163.1 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 270.0 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 5.6% during 2024-2032. The rising environmental concerns, increasing need for sustainable energy sources, and escalating demand for renewable energy across the globe represent some of the key factors driving the market.
Hydrogen is a clean, renewable, and abundant energy source that is produced from a variety of sources, including water electrolysis, biomass, and natural gas. It can be used to directly power vehicles, generate electricity, and store energy for later use. The demand for clean energy sources is driven by the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the dependence on fossil fuels. Additionally, the rising cost of traditional fuels, such as oil and natural gas, is accelerating the demand for hydrogen across industry verticals. This is further augmented by the growing cost of electricity, which has rendered hydrogen-based energy sources more attractive. Apart from this, numerous initiatives undertaken by the governments of several countries to encourage the masses to adopt clean energy sources are creating a positive market outlook.
Competitive analysis such as market structure, market share by key players, player positioning, top winning strategies, competitive dashboard, and company evaluation quadrant has been covered in the report. Also, detailed profiles of all major companies have been provided. The market structure is moderately fragmented due to the presence of numerous players at the regional and international levels in the industry due to favorable government initiatives and the extensive application of hydrogen as a coolant in power plant generators. The volume of new entrants is moderate in the hydrogen generation industry due to the high capital investment, high entry and exit barrier, and low to moderate product differentiation.
What is Hydrogen Generation?
Hydrogen generation is the process of producing hydrogen gas in order to use as a fuel or energy source. It is done in several ways, including electrolysis of water, reforming of natural gas, and biomass gasification. Through electrolysis, an electrical current is applied to water in order to split it into its component elements, hydrogen, and oxygen. The hydrogen gas produced is used as a fuel source or stored in fuel cells. The reforming of natural gas is a process that breaks down the molecules of the gas in order to produce hydrogen and other gases. Lastly, biomass gasification is the process of breaking down organic matter to produce hydrogen and other gases. It is an efficient energy source, as it is clean burning and does not emit any carbon dioxide when burned. It is also lighter than fossil fuels, making it easier to transport.
The global COVID-19 pandemic has had a severe impact on the production and demand for hydrogen generation. The chemical industry has suffered greatly, with oil and gas exploration activities taking a major hit during the pandemic. With the growing need for medical supplies during the outbreak, the existing reserves of hydrogen have been utilized to meet these requirements. The power industry has been at the forefront of the demand for hydrogen, accounting for much of the market demand. Government-imposed regulations, such as lockdowns, restricted international travel, and social distancing have had a detrimental effect on the financial state of various countries. However, governments have been keen to use the reduced emissions caused by the shutdown of the industry and transport sector to push the demand for clean fuel alternatives, including hydrogen, in the post-COVID era, which is positively influencing the market.
At present, governing authorities of numerous nations are taking significant initiatives to reduce carbon emissions in the automotive industry, resulting in increased sales of electric vehicles. Along with this, hydrogen is widely utilized as a coolant in power plant generators, which is acting as another growth-inducing factor. In addition, several projects are aiming to reduce the costs and environmental impacts of hydrogen production technologies. Nuclear energy-based hydrogen generation is considered an economical solution for minimizing the carbon footprint and addressing global climate change, which is further driving demand for hydrogen generation in glass purification, fertilizer production, and semiconductor manufacturing across the globe. Apart from this, the widespread adoption of hydrogen in the production of new materials, such as hydrogenated polymers and hydrogenated metals, offering improved performance and cost savings compared to traditional materials, is providing thrust to the market. Moreover, the development and construction of cost-effective and energy-saving hydrogen stations are creating a positive market outlook. Furthermore, continual technological advancements and cost reductions are making hydrogen generation more affordable and accessible. This is driving investments in the sector, and thus helping to create new markets for hydrogen-based products and services.
