In 2015, PEMFC product segment dominated the global market and accounted for approximately 65% of the total shipments. Broad scope in varied applications such as telecommunications, forklifts, automobile, data centers, backup systems and primary centers has led to the growth of the product in the market.
SOFC does not lose electrolyte owing to its all solid components, which gives it the ability to operate at high temperatures and reduces the need for expensive catalysts. Regarding revenue, the product is most likely to witness the fastest growth rate with the estimated CAGR of over 20% over the forecast period.
Stationary fuel cells such MCFC are the largest and most popular fuel cells. They are designed to supply reliable and clean on-site power. The products are installed in big stationary power plants, which makes them possess thus making them the second largest for installed capacity.
Application Insights
Stationary hydrogen power plants are designed to power banks, hospitals, airports, schools, military bases, and homes, and is anticipated to capture more than 70% of the overall shipments and thereby to emerge as the leading application segment of the industry. Its ability to use various fuels and use of direct current are the significant factors likely to increase the demand for the sector.
