What emerging drivers are expected to shape the future of the hydrogen fuel cell vehicle market?
The increasing adoption of electric vehicles is driving the growth of the hydrogen fuel cell vehicle market. Electric vehicles work on an electric motor instead of an internal combustion engine. The increasing fuel prices and pollution has led to increased demand for electric vehicles. The electric vehicle uses a hydrogen fuel cell to power its on-board electric motor. EVs powered by hydrogen fuel cells transform chemical energy into mechanical energy for propulsion and employ sustainable energy sources that don't emit greenhouse gases or ozone-depleting precursors. For instance, in July 2023, according to the International Energy Agency, a France-based intergovernmental organization, sales of electric vehicles were 10 million in 2022, and there will be an increase to 14 million sales of electric vehicles in 2023. As a result, the market for hydrogen fuel cell cars is anticipated to rise in response to the rising demand for electric vehicles.
