GLOBAL HYDROGEN MARKET – 2025 ASSESSMENT

Recent trends and prospects

CEDIGAZ has recently published its annual survey on the global hydrogen market along with comprehensive databases on low-emission hydrogen production projects worldwide. The report tracks recent policy and market developments of the global low-emission hydrogen sector. It also focuses on project development and medium-term supply prospects.

The hydrogen industry is at a pivotal stage, with significant progress made in investments, policy support, and project development. However, the market remains in its infancy, with substantial challenges in cost, infrastructure, and demand uptake. The next five years will be critical for scaling hydrogen production and establishing a global market. Stronger policies, international collaboration, and technological advancements are essential to unlock hydrogen’s full potential as a cornerstone of the energy transition.

GLOBAL BIOMETHANE MARKET – 2024 ASSESSMENT

Biomethane in full gear

CEDIGAZ has just published its 2024 annual report on the global biomethane market which focuses on recent trends in global and regional biomethane markets in 2023. According to CEDIGAZ, global biomethane production expanded to 7.7 billion cubic metres (bcm) in 2022, a growth of 20% compared to 2021, driven by Europe and North America. It is estimated at 9.5 bcm in 2023, an increase of 23%. Driven by strong structural policy and market drivers, the biomethane market is poised for a huge expansion over this decade and beyond. The targets announced by regional and national governments around the world exceed 100 bcm/y by 2030. Reaching this ambitious level requires the adoption of the right policy and regulatory framework, an acceleration of support, and faster permitting, which many governments have put in place in 2023.
