The hydrogen compressor market was valued at US$ 448.7 million in 2021 and is projected to reach US$ 643.6 million by 2028; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.3% from 2021 to 2028.
Rising government investments in the development of hydrogen fuel infrastructure and increasing incentives offered to the buyers are allowing the original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to expand their revenue stream and geographical presence. The increasing demand for low-emission and cost-efficient vehicles, owing to the government initiatives the demand is growing for high-performance commercial vehicles across North America. When burnt in a fuel cell, hydrogen is a clean fuel that creates water. Natural gas, nuclear power, biomass, and renewable energy sources such as solar and wind energy can be used to produce hydrogen. Therefore, hydrogen is emerging as a suitable transportation and power generation fuel. Till the end of October 2021, there were ~ 166 operational fuel cell electric power generators at 113 locations in the US, with a total capacity of ~ 260 megawatts (MW). As a result, hydrogen is being viewed as a fuel of the future, with its applications in various industries such as oil & gas, automotive, chemical, and renewable energy. These trends would provide a bright future for hydrogen compressor manufacturers, thereby propelling the hydrogen compressor market growth.
The North America hydrogen compressor market is predicted to grow due to factors such as increased hydrogen consumption by end-user industries and the construction of hydrogen pipeline infrastructure. Furthermore, there has been a major increase in the need for oil-based compressors in recent years. This is because oil-based compressors are more efficient than oil-free compressors as oil acts as a cooling medium, removing around 80% of the heat created by the compressor during compression. Hence, the increase in demand for oil-based compressors is likely to have a significant impact on hydrogen compressor market growth over the forecast period.
Several companies are developing and introducing new hydrogen compressor products. In addition, a number of significant competitors in the hydrogen compressor market are in the process of establishing agreements to create new hydrogen compressors based on cutting-edge technologies. For example, Burckhardt Compression announced an agreement with Switzerland-based GRZ Technologies in February 2021. The goal of this agreement is the development of novel hydrogen compression technologies. The technique will utilize thermal active metal hydrides and will be used in a variety of hydrogen fuel stations, energy storage systems, and other applications. Such technological breakthroughs are expected to provide enormous potential for the hydrogen compressor market in the coming years.
