4 Mar, 2024
The solid oxide fuel cell market size has undergone exponential growth, surging from$1.7 billion in 2023 to$2.23 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 30.7%. The historic growth is attributed to market viability efforts, hydrogen utilization, the early stage of development, energy resilience, rising energy demand, and government funding and support. In the upcoming years, the market is projected to see exponential growth, reaching$6.12 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 28.7%. The forecasted expansion is driven by cost reduction strategies, expansion of micro CHP systems, industrial applications, and an increasing focus on clean energy. Major trends anticipated include technological advancements, energy transition initiatives, grid resilience and decentralization, and the development of the hydrogen economy.
Global Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Market Key Driver
The demand for clean energy sources is driving the growth of the solid oxide fuel cells market going forward. Clean energy sources, or renewable energy sources, are carbon-free sources that emit little to no greenhouse gases in the power generation process compared to fossil fuels. Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) provide a highly effective, reliable, and adaptable technology that produces electricity from eco-friendly fuel sources through an electrochemical reaction. It helps to lower the use of fossil fuels and carbon dioxide emissions in the environment, thus increasing the demand for solid oxide fuel cells. For instance, according to the International Renewable Energy Agency, an intergovernmental organisation, annual renewable capacity installations set a new high in 2021, growing by 6% to about 295 GW. Renewable capacity is predicted to expand by more than 8% in 2022, reaching about 320 GW. Therefore, the demand for clean energy sources is expected to propel the growth of the solid oxide fuel cells market. In 2023, the market size for solid oxide fuel cells is valued at X, and it is projected to reach Y by 2028.
