Price Modeling and Learning Curves for Electrolyzers
Review of the State of Hydrogen Electrolyzer Technologies: Forecast and Analysis
The use of green hydrogen as a source of renewable and storable energy holds vast potential to help decarbonize worldwide energy production and consumption across a multitude of end-use segments. However, production costs remain too high to compete with other methods of hydrogen production, most of which rely on fossil fuels. Therefore, cutting costs for the production plants, the electrolyzers, is essential to reducing the price of green hydrogen.
Water electrolysis has been used for industrial applications for more than a century. However, in the past 5 years, water electrolysis for hydrogen production—especially green hydrogen that is produced entirely with renewable energy—is garnering renewed attention due to technological advances, a growing list of potential end-use applications for hydrogen, lower renewable electricity prices, a global push to decarbonize energy production and consumption, and a desire to help stabilize the power grid amid broader efforts toward electrification and the variability that comes with renewable supplies.
This Guidehouse Insights report provides system and component price forecasts for four electrolyzer technology types: alkaline, polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM), solid oxide electrolyzer cells (SOEC), and anion exchange membrane (AEM). This report focuses primarily on the specifics of pricing for these four electrolyzer types, including capacity and revenue forecasts for major global regions for 2022-2031.
