PEM Electrolyzer Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 38% during the forecast Period 2022-2031 | BIS Research

The demand for PEM electrolyzers is anticipated to grow with the increasing demand from the end-use industries such as ammonia production, refining industry, power and energy storage, transportation, methanol production, and others. Furthermore, it is anticipated that during the projected period 2022-2031, the increasing adoption of PEM electrolyzers in generating green hydrogen and the investment from the government and private sector companies toward renewable energy is expected to further fuel the advancement of the global PEM electrolyzer market. However, the lack of hydrogen infrastructures, such as hydrogen storage and hydrogen transportation, is anticipated to hinder market growth in the upcoming future.

Market Lifecycle Stage

The global PEM electrolyzer market is in the growth phase. Rising sales of fuel cell vehicles and increasing focus on decarbonization and controlling greenhouse emissions are expected to boost market growth. Furthermore, due to high demand from the end-user industries and rising government regulations related to controlling GHG emissions are expected to increase the demand for eco-sustainable fuels, thereby bolstering the global PEM electrolyzer market. Moreover, the global PEM electrolyzer market is expected to benefit from the growing demand for green hydrogen, which would promote market expansion. The requirement for PEM electrolyzers is being stimulated by fuel cell electric vehicles as well.

PEM Elctrolyzer Industry

Industrial Impact 

• Growing demand for hydrogen and green hydrogen is the main driving force behind the growing interest in the PEM electrolyzer market. As a result, these materials are getting prominence in a variety of industries, including transportation, refining industry, and power and energy storage, among others. One area where implementation has been significantly greater is ammonia production, which has created opportunities for both existing market participants and market entrants.

• Furthermore, PEM electrolyzers have a moderate to high impact on end-user industries; however, in the upcoming future, with increased production of ammonia, electric vehicles, and other applications, the impact is anticipated to increase.

Impact of COVID-19

The PEM electrolyzer market was affected positively by COVID-19 as an investment in renewable energy surged to record heights and sales of fuel cell vehicles increased. The sales of fuel cell vehicles (FCVs) reduced significantly in 2020, with only 937 vehicles sold in the U.S., according to the California Fuel Cell Partnership. However, the sales rebounded spectacularly in 2021, with an increase of 257% year-over-year and a record 3,341 fuel cell vehicles sold. The PEM electrolyzer market was among the few markets that were positively affected by COVID-19, and the market has since continued its growth. The demand for green hydrogen is growing day by day, and with rising sales of fuel cell vehicles and a growing emphasis on decarbonization and sustainability, the demand for PEM electrolyzers is expected to keep on growing in the coming years.

Recent Developments in the Global PEM Electrolyzer Market

•   In March 2022, Elogen received an order of 1 MW proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzer from Communauté d’Agglomération Pau Béarn Pyrénées. Elogen would design and produce this PEM electrolyzer and would deliver it in the first half of 2023 to the Lescar wastewater treatment site.

•  In April 2022, Ohmium received an investment of around $45 million from one of its investors, Fenice Investment Group. The fund is expected to support the growth of the company and help it to increase the hydrogen manufacturing capacity from 500 MW to 2 GW annually by the end of 2022.

• In July 2022, Plug Power Inc. signed a contract with an international energy company, Irving Oil, to supply a 5-megawatt (MW) containerized proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyzer system for the production and distribution of hydrogen at its Saint John, New Brunswick refinery in Canada.
