Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell Market to Exhibit 40.6% CAGR till 2028; High Demand for Zero-emission Vehicles to Boost Growth: Fortune Business Insights™

March 23, 2021 | Energy & Power

The global proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) market size is projected to grow from USD 2.10 billion in 2021 to USD 22.74 billion in 2028. Customers nowadays are rapidly shifting towards zero-emission vehicles and hence, automakers are investing huge sums in developing efficient vehicles to cater to the rising demand. The Government of China recently announced its plans to develop 1,000 hydrogen refueling stations by 2030 and 300 by 2025. Fortune Business Insights™ provided this information in a new report, titled, Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) Market Size, Share & COVID-19 Impact Analysis, By Application (Transport, Stationary, Others) and Regional Forecast, 2021-2028.” As per the report, the market stood at USD 1.56 billion in 2020. It would exhibit a CAGR of 40.6% in the forecast period between 2021-2028.


Johnson Matthey to Surge Production Capacity of Catalyst Coated Membranes


In January 2021, Johnson Matthey (JM), a provider of sustainable technologies based in London, is planning to commercialize technologies to produce zero carbon ‘green’ hydrogen. It is set to broaden the production capacity of catalyst coated membranes. As per one of the company officials, “This is an important step on our journey to commercializing this novel technology. It would help us to strengthen our position in the field of green hydrogen.” Such initiatives by well-known companies would help in surging the demand for PEMFC.
