Analyst Insight: Electrolyzer Project Case Studies
Hydrogen Electrolyzer Tracker Insights
The transition to a clean energy future relies in part on the successful development and scale-up of green hydrogen projects. Project developers and electrolyzer manufacturers are working to enable decarbonization across a range of end-use sectors, including mobility and energy-intensive industry. However, significant barriers remain to moving projects to advanced development stages, including difficulties with securing financing, regulatory uncertainties, and technical and engineering challenges.
Released alongside the 1Q24 update of Guidehouse Insights’ Hydrogen Electrolyzer Tracker, this Analyst Insight profiles several large-scale green hydrogen projects that have either taken a final investment decision or have a high likelihood of taking one. The objective of the report is to identify key features of project design, manufacturer collaboration, or end-use integration that enable projects to be developed successfully. Case studies are provided for six North American and European projects supplied by three leading manufacturers.
This Analyst Insight also summarizes recent policy developments across North America and Europe, highlights key figures from the updated Hydrogen Electrolyzer Tracker 1Q24, and concludes with recommendations for hydrogen stakeholders.
