North America Fuel Cell Market 2019-2027

Market Outlook

This research shows that the North America fuel cell market is expected to grow with 18.33% CAGR for the period of 2019-2027

The North America region is witnessing high rate of availability and adaptability of advanced technologies. The major countries considered are the United States and Canada. In this region, the fuel cell market is rising at a significant pace driven by rising investments and funding grants by the federal government. The proactive involvement of various universities, government organisations and companies in R&D of fuel cell technologies creates a conducive environment, thereby paving its growth. Also, vast market opportunities and prospect lie in the massive applications of the fuel cell in industries like transportation, power generation plants, data centres and automotive sector.

The rising demand for fuel cell electric vehicles, hybrid vehicles along with increasing development of refuelling station infrastructures has pushed the market further. The development of fuel cell with renewable resources made it environment-friendly due to its ability of zero emissions. Therefore, companies have largely adopted this eco-friendly technology to comply with the government’s environmental norms and standards, eventually raising its demand.

Despite the advantages mentioned above, the fuel cell market is hindered by the high cost and less durability of technology, which mainly influences the buyer’s decision. Also, due to the presence of large manufacturers and their different products, the new entrants face a high level of entry barriers.

Competitive Outlook

The prominent players in the fuel cell market are Hitachi Limited, Exxon Mobil Corporation, Toyota Motor Corporation, Aisin Seiki Co Ltd.,Fuelcell Energy Inc, Toshiba Corporation, Plug Power Inc., Bloom Energy Corporation, Panasonic Corporation, General Electric Company, AFC Energy PLC, Hydrogenics Corporation, SFC Energy AG Ballard Power Systems, and Ceres Power Holdings PLC.
