Northbrook, IL 60062 -- (SBWire) -- 01/04/2024 --According to a research report "Fuel Cell Market by Type (PEMFC, SOFC, PAFC, MFC, DMFC, AFC), Application (Portable, Stationary, Vehicle (FCVs)), End User (Residential, C&l, Transportation, Data Center, Military & Defense), Size, Fuel, Component and Region - Global Forecast to 2028" published by MarketsandMarkets, the fuel cell market is projected to reach USD 8.7 billion by 2028 from an estimated USD 3.3 billion in 2023, at a CAGR of 21.7% during the forecast period. Fuel cells are devices that generate electricity through electrochemical reactions, typically using hydrogen as a fuel source. They are considered a clean and efficient technology, as the only byproducts of the process are water and heat. Fuel cells boast high energy conversion efficiencies compared to traditional combustion-based power systems. The electrochemical process allows for more direct and efficient conversion of fuel into electricity, resulting in minimized energy losses. Rising growth in the demand for consumer electronics along with increasing adoption of fuel cell technology solutions are the factors expected to drive the demand for the fuel cell market.
