Market Overview:
The global SOFC and SOEC market is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for clean and efficient energy sources, rising awareness about environmental concerns, and government initiatives toward the adoption of renewable energy sources. The tubular segment is expected to hold the largest share of the global SOFC and SOEC market in 2018. This can be attributed to its high efficiency as compared to other types of fuel cells, low emissions, long life cycle, and easy installation. The stationary segment is expected to grow at a higher CAGR than other segments during the forecast period owing to its growing demand from commercial & industrial sectors for power generation applications.
Product Definition:
Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) and solid oxide electrolysis cells (SOECs) are electrochemical devices that convert chemical energy into electrical energy.
They are important because they can provide clean, efficient, and sustainable power sources for a variety of applications.
Tubular:
Tubular is a new term in the field of energy storage. It is defined as a structure made up of multiple tubes, which are wound around each other and filled with an electrolyte. The most common example of tubular battery includes flat plate batteries such as zinc-carbon or lithium-air batteries. These types of batteries have many advantages over conventional cylindrical type including low profile, easy installation and maintenance, compact size etc.
Planar:
The planar is a type of cell that finds application in solid-state electrolysis. It has several advantages over conventional cells such as high specific and volumetric efficiencies, low operating costs, compact size and lightweight.
Application Insights:
The stationary application segment dominated the global SOFC and SOEC market in terms of revenue share in 2017. The growth can be attributed to the rising demand for power generation from photovoltaic systems, wind turbines, and thermal storage batteries across residential and commercial sectors. Stationary applications are further categorized into portable & military, residential & commercial buildings as well as transportation. Portable & military was the largest application segment in 2017 owing to growing defense expenditure across various countries which is expected to boost product demand over the forecast period.
SOFCs provide an efficient solution for generating power by harnessing solar energy or running on fossil fuels such as natural gas or diesel with a cogeneration system that avoids any additional fuel costs while producing electricity at a lower cost than other technologies such as PV panels or wind turbines do. This factor is anticipated to drive their adoption rate among portable & military applications over the forecast period thereby driving overall market growth globally during this time frame.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region has been witnessing rapid growth in industries such as portable & military, industrial, energy & power, consumer electronics, and automotive. Increasing demand for high efficiency SOFCs from these end-use markets coupled with rising government initiatives to develop clean energy sources is likely to drive industry expansion over the coming years.
The European market was valued at USD X billion in 2017 and is projected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to increasing focus on developing renewable energy sources for electricity generation along with growing automobile industry within Europe region itself which would lead towards an increase of fuel consumption necessitating a need for efficientSOFCsfor reducing harmful emissions into environment thus driving demand across various applications including transportation sector also supporting regional growth trends observed during same year.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for fuel cells from the transportation sector as a result of stringent emission regulations
- The increasing demand for stationary fuel cells from data centers and telecommunications companies to provide backup power and improve efficiency
- Growing demand for portable fuel cells to power consumer electronics and military applications
- The increasing use of fuel cells in micro-grid applications
- Advances in materials science that are making SOFCs more efficient, durable, and affordable
