Electrolyzers Market size was valued at USD 609.02 million in 2024 and is set to exceed USD 13.34 billion by 2037, expanding at over 26.8% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of electrolyzers is evaluated at USD 747.75 million.
The growth of the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for hydrogen as a green fuel, rise in demand for fuel-cell based automotive, and ongoing developments toward more efficient renewable energy technologies. Along with these, favorable regulatory policies regarding development of hydrogen infrastructure and reduction in the prices of electrolyzers are also expected to drive market growth in the upcoming years. Furthermore, largescale integration of renewable energy sources, coupled with surge in investments associated with the usage of environment-friendly technologies for power generation are projected to offer lucrative opportunities for market growth in the near future. According to the statistics by the International Energy Agency (IEA), global hydrogen electrolysis capacity additions is expected to touch 895.1 MW/y by the end of 2023, up from 11.9 MW/y in 2018.

On the basis of geographical analysis, the global electrolyzers market is segmented into five major regions including North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America and the Middle East & Africa region. The market in the Europe industry is likely to dominate majority revenue share by 2037, on the back of increasing demand for hydrogen as a fuel from the automotive industry, and several initiatives from the government to encourage decarbonizing. In addition, growing electricity demand is also expected to drive the region’s market growth in the coming years. As per the data provided by Eurostat, the total electricity generation in the European Union was 2,780 TWh in 2019. More than half (56.4 %) of the net electricity generated in the EU in 2019 came from non-combustible primary sources. Moreover, the market in North America is assessed to acquire the largest share, which can be credited to the high usage of hydrogen in industries namely, refining, petrochemicals, fertilizers and glass purification, and strong presence of market players in the region.
· February 2021- Siemens AG and Air Liquide signed a Memorandum of Understanding to develop a largescale partnership for creation of industrial hydrogen projects by laying the ground for mass manufacturing of electrolyzers in Europe.
