Global Fuel Cell Market To Grow Exponentially
With start of commercialization, global fuel cell market reached 0.14 million unit shipments in the year 2010. In 2008, the industry started realizing commercialization with few segments such as telecom towers' fuel cell backup power systems and fuel cell forklifts. By 2010, some more segments like residential cogeneration and heat production (CHP) units and auxiliary power units (APUs) were commercialized.
At present, major factors driving the fuel cell market are private equity & venture capital investments, subsidies provided by government, advantage over other backup power options, higher energy density compared to batteries, and capacity to store energy from intermittent sources like wind and sun. By 2016, the industry is expected to reach 10 million unit shipments with 115% CAGR during 2011 – 2016. In terms of MW capacity, those 10 million units will be equivalent to 3,760 MW compared to mere 240 MW in 2010.
In 2010, the global fuel cell market was valued at $650 million with 0.14 million unit shipments and is estimated to reach $1.6 billion in 2016. In 2016, North America will be the largest market with $594 million; i.e. 37% market share due to development of fuel cell vehicles market in California, U.S. North America will grow by 32.3% CAGR from 2011 to 2016; followed by Europe, which will grow by 26.6% during the same period. Among the countries, U.S. is currently the largest market with estimated 45% market share; i.e. $225 million in 2009. Japan is the fastest growing market and will grow its market share from 14% in 2009 to 26% in 2016.
