The Future of Hydrogen Demand

Hydrogen is increasingly recognised as a key solution in the global energy transition, with the potential to decarbonise hard-to-abate industries such as steel, fertilisers, chemicals, seasonal energy storage, and power generation. However, the future demand for hydrogen remains uncertain. While some sectors are ready to embrace it as a decarbonisation tool, challenges such as high production costs, infrastructure limitations, and competition from alternative technologies continue to impede its widespread adoption. Regional dynamics play a critical role in shaping global hydrogen adoption. 

Europe is setting the pace with strict certification frameworks and blending quotas to drive demand, while emerging markets like India and the Middle East are ramping up production for export to meet the needs of energy-intensive industries. At the same time, North America and Asia are focusing on niche applications and forging innovative collaborations to enhance hydrogen’s cost competitiveness and market acceptance.
