Global Water Electrolysis Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029

Global Water Electrolysis Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029

Electrolysis is a promising option for hydrogen production from renewable resources. Electrolysis is the process of using electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. This reaction takes place in a unit called electrolyze. Electrolyzes can range in size from small, appliance-size equipment that is well-suited for small-scale distributed hydrogen production to large-scale, central production facilities that could be tied directly to renewable or other non-greenhouse-gas-emitting forms of electricity production.

Market Overview:

The latest research study on the global Water Electrolysis market finds that the global Water Electrolysis market reached a value of USD 311.78 million in 2022. It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 985.3 million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 21.14% during the forecast period.

The production and sales of Water Electrolysis are affected by Covid-19

In order to curb the COVID-19 epidemic, most countries have introduced many policies, including border blockade and social distancing. The epidemic prevention and control measures will affect the flow of people and activities, and in turn affect logistics, making the production of manufacturing, especially labor-intensive industries, affected by the supply of raw materials and labor shortages.
For the Water Electrolysis industry, the blockade policy will affect the supply of raw materials and export trade of products. The social distancing policy may have a great impact on the production of products, especially for some small factories, they will spend more money to maintain production during the epidemic, and factories may face the risk of closure in some areas. With the gradual control of the epidemic, some factories began to resume operation. However, while operating production, enterprises need to protect the life and health of employees, such as purchasing masks, disinfectants and other epidemic prevention materials, disinfecting the working environment before and after the production, and testing the body temperature of employees every day to ensure the health of employees. These measures will increase the production cost of enterprises and affect the development of enterprises.
But in the long term, the COVID-19 outbreak may cause more factories to start using more automated production lines to avoid the pandemic's impact on the industry. In addition, the application of IoT technology may also bring more opportunities for industry participants.

Market expansion in developed countries drives the development of the industry

In developed markets, there are more international companies, good channels, high market maturity, fierce competition among industries, and market expansion among enterprises through mergers and acquisitions. The company's high-quality management team, technical and financial advantages, continuous innovation, highlighting the large investment of market participants in R&D, the introduction of new technologies, the company's product development and innovation, created the company's brand effect, and improved its international popularity. All these factors will promote the growth of market demand for Water Electrolysis, thus promoting the development of the industry.

Competition in the industry is fierce

For most industries the intensity of competitive rivalry is the major determinant of the competitiveness of the industry. Understanding industry competitors is essential to successfully market products. Positioning pertains to how the public perceives a product and distinguishes it from competitors. A business must be aware of its competitors marketing strategy and pricing and also be reactive to any changes made. The Water Electrolysis industry is facing a fierce competitive position. Many companies have been doing business in this industry. They pay more attention to R&D, product innovation, channel construction and customer relationship management, trying to gain greater market share and competitive advantage.

Segmentation Overview:

By type, Traditional Alkaline Electroliser segment accounted for the largest share of market in 2021.

Traditional Alkaline Electroliser

Alkaline water electrolysis is a type of electrolyzer that is characterized by having two electrodes operating in a liquid alkaline electrolyte solution of potassium hydroxide (KOH) or sodium hydroxide (NaOH).

PEM Electroliser

Polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) electrolysis is to electrolyze water in an electrolytic cell filled with solid polymer electrolyte (SPE), which is responsible for proton conduction, product gas separation and electrical insulation of electrodes. The PEM electrolyzer is introduced to overcome the problems of partial load, low current density and low-pressure operation that currently plague alkaline electrolyzer. It comprises a proton exchange membrane.

Application Overview:

The market's largest segment by application is the segment Energy Storage or Fueling for FCEV's, with a market share of 23.04% in 2021.
