Rising Investments in Renewable Energy and Hydrogen Generation Projects Worldwide Fuel Asia Pacific Hydrogen Compressor Market
With rising urbanization and rapid industrial growth, energy consumption across the globe has proliferated. Thus, to meet this huge demand for power, there is a rapid increase in the launch of hydrogen-generated power projects. According to the Ember Climate Organization, total global energy demand reached ~13,393 TWh in the first quarter of 2022, an increase from 13,004 TWh compared to 2021. Such an increase in demand for energy and power, owing to rising residential and industrial manufacturing requirements, is driving the demand for hydrogen compressors. Renewable energy plays a significant role in making electricity. Per the International Energy Agency (IEA), the global demand for electricity is anticipated to increase by 2.1% annually by 2040. Further, the growth in electricity demand is higher in Asia Pacific countries such as China, Japan, and India. In APAC, India is the third largest producer of electricity, generating higher capacity with favorable government support and the initiation of numerous power generation projects. For instance, the Khargone Transmission Project was initiated to connect NTPC’s 1,320 MW thermal power project at Khandwa in Madhya Pradesh with a transmission system to serve Maharashtra and southern states. Along with the new power transmission projects, the deployment of hydrogen compressors is also increasing. Therefore, development in the renewable energy & power sector is surging the demand for power generation projects worldwide, thereby boosting the demand for hydrogen compressors.
There is a rise in investments in the renewable energy sector due to increased government initiatives and funding, which promotes the adoption of hydrogen compressors. Per the IEA, global investments in the renewable energy sector reached US$ 358.0 billion in the first six months of 2023, an increase of 22% rise compared to the start of last year and an all-time high for any six months. Renewable energy companies compared to last year, 2022. The venture capital firms and private equity companies are expanding their operations in the renewable energy sector, reaching US$ 10.4 billion in the first quarter of 2023. China accounted for the largest market share in the first quarter of 2023, with investment reaching US$ 177 billion, increased by 16% compared to the first quarter of 2022. Also, the US secured an investment of ~US$ 36 billion, followed by Germany, with an investment of US$ 11.9 billion for the expansion of the renewable energy sector. Further, many hydrogen production projects are being launched due to government support and funding. According to the International Energy Agency Organization and McKinsey Report, globally, more than 680 large-scale investment projects announced with investments of US$ 240 billion by 2022. The report estimates that investment is expected to reach US$ 700 billion by 2030 to achieve the net-zero target. Also, investment in building hydrogen fuel stations across the globe is rising, owing to a surge in investments in fuel cell technology by private equity firms and venture capital.
Thus, rising investments in renewable energy and hydrogen generation projects owing to government support and funding are anticipated to create ample opportunity for the market growth in the coming years.

Further, APAC’s demand for hydrogen compressors is largest in 2022 owing to rapid investments in the energy & power sector with several government projects in the region. The region is expected to dominate owing to ample investment by the government in the renewable energy sector. Renewable energy investment in Asia Pacific is expected to reach US$ 1.3 trillion by 2030. The fossil fuel expenditures were recorded to be US$ 54 billion annually in Asia Pacific. Further, India and China are the leading contributors to the hydrogen compressors market growth. The installation of large-scale solar power projects across India is likely to promote the adoption of hydrogen compressors. Besides, due to rising power demand in other developing countries of APAC, coupled with the growing investment in R&D activities, it is expected to boost the growth of the Asia Pacific hydrogen compressor market. Additionally, the APAC hydrogen compressor market is led by China and Japan and further anticipates significant growth with growing fuel cell stack shipments for the transport industry.
