On the basis of application, hydrogen fuel vehicles are anticipated to witness highest growth during the forecast period owing to stringent emission norms being implemented by various governments across regions.
Product Definition:
A gas diffusion layer substrate for fuel cells is a thin, porous material that allows gases to flow through it. This type of substrate is important for fuel cells because it allows the cell to function properly and produce energy. without a gas diffusion layer, the cell would not be able to function correctly.
Carbon Fiber Paper Substrate:
Carbon fiber paper substrate is a new material that has gained popularity in recent years. It is made from carbon fibers, which are very strong and flexible. The most common form of carbon fiber used in manufacturing substrates is called aligned or prepreg carbon fiber. However, this product can also be manufactured using other processes like continuous random length (CRL) and multi-layered laminated (MLA).
Carbon Cloth Substrate:
Carbon cloth substrate is a highly porous and textured carbon material that acts as an excellent support for the growth of fuel cell-related catalysts. The product has been used in commercial fuel cells, which are installed at airports, hotels, retail stores and other public places. It has also been used in residential fuel cells to power water heaters and space heating applications.
Carbon cloth substrate is a highly porous.
Application Insights:
The hydrogen fuel vehicle segment dominated the global gas diffusion layer substrate for fuel cell market, accounting for over 45.0% of the overall revenue in 2017. The growth can be attributed to increasing R&D on hydrogen as an energy carrier and its utilization in various industrial applications including power generation and metalworking. Moreover, several governments are taking initiatives such as ¢â‚¬Å“H2 Fuel Cell Vehicle Trial¢â‚¬ in U.S., ¢â‚¬Å“Hyundai Heavy Industries Hysube Fuel Cell Bus Service Testbed Project (FTT)¢â‚¬in Korea and ¢â€š©H2Ofuel project by Mitsubishi Electric Corporation to promote the commercialization of fuel cell vehicles across the globe.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific region dominated the global gas diffusion layer substrate for fuel cell market in 2016 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The presence of a large number of manufacturers coupled with rising demand from end-use industries such as portable power supply, military industry, and commercial airliners is anticipated to drive growth in this region.
The European regional market accounted for more than 20% of the revenue share in 2016 owing to high R&D investments by various organizations focused on developing advanced materials suitable for use as gas diffusion layers in fuel cells. Moreover, technological advancements related to product design are also expected to boost demand over the forecast period.
North America held a significant share due to growing adoption of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles across U.S., which has resulted into increased production capacity at both national level and state level along with funding support from government agencies such as National Institute Of Standards And Technology (NIST).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for fuel cells in transportation sector: The global market for fuel cells is projected to grow at a CAGR of more than 15% from 2016 to 2021. This growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for fuel cells in the transportation sector, as they are more efficient and environmentally friendly than traditional combustion engines.
- Proliferation of hydrogen infrastructure: The development of hydrogen infrastructure is another major factor driving the growth of the global market for fuel cells. With governments and private companies investing heavily in developing this infrastructure, it is expected that there will be a significant increase in the number of hydrogen-powered vehicles over the next few years.
- Growing popularity of electric vehicles: Electric vehicles are becoming increasingly popular due to their low emissions and environmental friendliness. This is likely to result in an increase in demand for fuel cell systems, which are used extensively in electric vehicles as power sources .
