India has set an ambitious target of producing 5 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) of green hydrogen by 2030 with an aim to mitigate 50 million tonnes of CO2 and reduce energy imports by INR 1 lakh crore. Electrolysers play a critical role in the green hydrogen production process and constitute 30–50 per cent of the total cost of green hydrogen. The electrolyser market in India is expected to grow to 20 GW by 2030, 112 GW by 2040, and 226 GW by 2050. The report indicates that about 72 per cent of the PEM electrolyser manufacturing cost can be readily indigenised.

Based on announced projects, Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) could produce over 7 Mtpa of low-emissions hydrogen by 2030, but only about 0.1% of these projects is in operation, under construction or has reached a final investment decision. Deployment is still nascent. The high cost of capital in the region remains a barrier, and could undermine the competitive production costs from its strong renewable resources. In addition, a massive expansion of renewable capacity would be needed – if all hydrogen projects in the pipeline come to fruition, wind and solar PV generation would need to increase by 140% within this decade for hydrogen production alone. Action is required in the short term to unlock LAC’s potential, balancing domestic demand with export ambitions.
