Market Research Future (MRFR) has published a  “Global Phosphoric Acid Fuel Cell Market”

MRFR recognizes the following companies as the key players in the global Phosphoric Acid Fuel Cell market— Fuji Electric Co., LTD., Doosan Fuel Cell America, Inc., Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), Ingsman Energy and Fuel Cell Research Organization (IEFRO)

Market Highlights

The global Phosphoric Acid Fuel Cell market is accounted to register a CAGR of 20.30% during the forecast period and is estimated to reach USD 2.1 billion by 2032.

Phosphoric acid fuel cells are one of the most advanced cell types and the first to be used commercially. Fuel cells that use phosphoric acid solution as an electrolyte are referred to as phosphoric acid fuel cells. Phosphoric acid is a controllable and stable chemical. The fuel cell made of phosphoric acid is a crucial component of the energy source used in appliances.

Increased efforts to cut global carbon emissions to combat climate change and a paradigm shift toward clean energy sources will raise demand for phosphoric acid fuel cells. Various emerging economies have set various low carbon power generation goals to meet the rapidly rising energy demand. Fuel cells convert hydrogen or other fuels into clean energy that may be used for a multitude of purposes without causing any negative side effects. Phosphoric acid fuel cells (PAFCs), like other comparable devices, have a cathode and an anode that are used to generate electricity by introducing fuel and oxygen to the system.

Segment Analysis

The global phosphoric acid fuel cell market has been segmented based on application.

Based on application, the global phosphoric acid fuel cell market has been segmented into vehicles, cogeneration, others. The vehicles segment was expected to hold the largest market share in 2022.
