Hydrogen for Mobility Market Forecasted to Achieve USD 15 Billion by 2035, at a Healthy CAGR of 21.1%

The Hydrogen for Mobility Market is revolutionizing clean transport with fuel cell vehicles, eco-friendly fleets, and government support, offering a sustainable alternative to conventional fuels worldwide.
Published 19 November 2025

The global demand for clean and sustainable transportation has led to rapid growth in the Hydrogen for Mobility Market. Hydrogen-powered vehicles, including fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs), are increasingly seen as the next frontier in eco-friendly mobility. With governments and private players investing heavily in hydrogen infrastructure, this market is poised for substantial expansion.

Market Overview

Hydrogen for mobility primarily involves using hydrogen fuel cells to power various transport modes, including cars, buses, trucks, trains, and even ships. Unlike traditional internal combustion engines, hydrogen fuel cells generate electricity through a chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen, producing only water as a byproduct. This technology significantly reduces greenhouse gas emissions and air pollutants, making it a critical solution in combating climate change.

The Hydrogen for Mobility market was valued at USD 1,800 million in 2024. It is projected to expand from USD 2,200 million in 2025 to USD 15 billion by 2035, registering a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 21.1% over the forecast period from 2025 to 2035.

The market encompasses hydrogen production, storage, distribution infrastructure, and the vehicles themselves. Recent advancements in fuel cell efficiency, reduction in hydrogen storage costs, and improved vehicle design have contributed to increased adoption across both commercial and personal transport sectors.
