New solutions are needed to unlock the US hydrogen ecosystem

While still a relatively niche sector, focusing on the efficiency of fuel cells and the affordability of hydrogen could transform trucking. By Will Girling

Although the uptake of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) has accelerated worldwide in recent years, the proliferation of hydrogen-powered vehicles might not be far behind. Valued at US$46bn in 2023, market researcher Fact.MR forecasts that global demand will push this up to US$675bn by 2033—CAGR 30.8%. The US market is expected to grow at an equivalent rate (30.5%) across the same time period.

“The future of hydrogen-fuelled mobility in the US has never been brighter,” asserts Peter Meeks, Chief Executive of heavy-duty hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) manufacturer Hyzon Motors. “While Europe, Australia, and New Zealand may have experienced a head start in terms of hydrogen policy, infrastructure, and overall adoption, the US is catching up and we expect rapid growth in the coming years.”
