Boston, May 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — According to the latest study from BCC Research, the “Global Hydrogen Energy Storage Market” is projected to reach $23.7 billion by the end of 2029 with a CAGR of 72.1% from 2024 to 2029.
In this report, the global hydrogen energy storage (HES) technology market is analyzed by storage technology and end use, focusing on the U.S., Canada, China, Japan, Germany, France and the U.K. The report covers four regions: North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and the Rest of the World. It examines leading companies, financial data, product types and important developments, along with a patent analysis, the regulatory environment, and the competitive landscape. The study focuses on green hydrogen, which generated from renewables or low-emission sources and used in mobility applications or fuel cells.
This report is relevant due to the declining costs of renewable energy generation and supportive government incentives driving the transition to green energy. With increasing domestic and global energy demand, the fastest growth in solar PV is expected in APAC countries China and India, followed by Southeast Asia, Latin America, the Middle East, and North Africa. As renewable energy generation rises, so does the need for hydrogen energy storage (HES) to store surplus energy, making HES a crucial component in the evolving energy landscape.
The factors driving the market’s growth include:
Electrolyzers for Grid: Electrolyzers help stabilize the grid by converting excess electricity into hydrogen, which can be stored and used later.
Renewable Energy Variability: If renewable energy generation is interrupted, HES systems ensure a consistent energy supply by storing excess energy for later use.
Clean Transportation: Hydrogen is used as a clean fuel for vehicles, reducing emissions and pollution.
Hydrogen Infrastructure: Developing hydrogen production, storage, and distribution infrastructure supports its growing demand and accessibility.
