New York, NY, April 03, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Zion Market Research has published a new report titled “Fuel Cells Market (PEMFC, MCFC, SOFC, DMFC, PAFC, and Others) for Stationary, Transport and Portable Applications: Global Industry Perspective, Comprehensive Analysis, and Forecast, 2016 - 2022”. According to the report, the global fuel cells market accounted for USD 3.6 billion in 2016 and is expected to reach USD 6.54 billion by 2022, growing at a CAGR of 10.5% between 2017 and 2022.
Global fuel cells market is expected to witness positive growth within the forecast period on account of increasing government incentives for the adoption of sustainable energy alternatives for power generation. A fuel cell uses the chemical energy of hydrogen or another fuel to cleanly and efficiently produce electricity. If hydrogen is the fuel, electricity, water, and heat are the only products. Fuel cells are unique in terms of the variety of their potential applications; they can provide power for systems as large as a utility power station and as small as a laptop computer. Growing government incentives and favorable policies for the adoption and application of fuel cells is expected to be the major driving factor of the global fuel cells market. Moreover, the technological innovations coupled with the commercialization of fuel cells have also been aiding the growth of the fuel cells market. Rising awareness about the benefits of fuel cells and depletion of fossil fuels is expected to surge the demand for fuel cells in the years to come. However, the lack of fuel cell infrastructure and the high cost of the fuel cell is expected to be a major restraint for the global fuel cells market. Technological advancements and favorable government policies to construct hydrogen power stations are expected to provide growth opportunities for the key players in the market over the coming years.
