Abstract
Green hydrogen (GH) is gaining popularity due to its potential to reduce the world's carbon dioxide emissions. Green Hydrogen is produced by electrolyzing water in the presence of renewable energy sources such as solar and wind. This research report presents a comprehensive research methodology to analyze the trends and factors driving the market for green hydrogen. The research methodology includes an extensive literature review, a market forecast model, and a real-time survey of key stakeholders. Through these methods, a detailed understanding of the Green Hydrogen market and its various aspects are derived to update the business plans of various industry stakeholders in the green hydrogen value chain.
Introduction
The use of green hydrogen (GH) is gaining traction globally to reduce carbon dioxide emissions in various industries. GH, which is derived from water electrolysis in the presence of renewable energy sources such as solar and wind, is viewed as a viable solution to meet the world’s energy needs. The market for Green Hydrogen has grown significantly in recent years and hence, a comprehensive research methodology is needed to understand the trends, drivers, and factors impacting the Green Hydrogen market.
Literature Review
A comprehensive literature review is an essential step for understanding the dynamics of the GH market. For this research, an extensive search of published and unpublished materials, such as journal articles, conference papers, reports from research and industry associations, government databases and reports, and online sources are conducted. The literature review collected pertinent information regarding GH technologies, trends, and drivers, as well as GH production cost and economic impact. This provides a fundamental understanding of GH technology, economics, and usage, which are essential to accurately assess the GH market.
Market Forecast Model
To further deepen our understanding of the GH market, a Market Forecast Model is subsequently developed. This model combines existing industry information and market estimates with newly collected and emerging information to construct forecasts and assessments of the GH market. By taking into account various factors such as GH production costs, economic incentives, and regulatory policies, this model projects consumer demand, industry trends, and production capabilities ahead of time.
Key Stakeholder Survey
In addition to the literature review and market forecast model, a real-time survey of key stakeholders in the GH market was conducted. The survey was designed to better understand consumer needs, competitive dynamics, and potential obstacles to the widespread adoption of GH technology. The survey collected feedback from GH producers, government policymakers, industry associations, and other stakeholders in different areas of the green hydrogen value chain.
Conclusion
This paper presents a research methodology for a comprehensive analysis of the green hydrogen market. Through an extensive literature review, a market forecast model, and a real-time survey of key stakeholders, the research methodology provides a detailed understanding of the GH market and its various aspects. This information is essential to update the business plans of various industry stakeholders in the green hydrogen value chain.
