The global liquid hydrogen market, valued at approximately $9 billion today and projected to reach $19 billion by 2032 before exceeding $54 billion from 2037 onward, is entering a phase where infrastructure constraints rather than technology readiness are increasingly defining deployment timelines.

Provaris Energy Ltd has entered a cooperation framework with shipping group Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha Ltd and Norwegian Hydrogen AS to advance a dedicated maritime supply chain for compressed hydrogen exports from western Norway into demand centers in Northern Europe.

South Africa’s Coega Green Ammonia Project has moved closer to execution after project developer Hive Hydrogen selected Topsoe A/S to provide approximately $1 billion worth of electrolyzer and ammonia synthesis equipment.

In the Baltic region, Estonia’s plans to position itself as a strategic hydrogen transit corridor are facing direct competition from an offshore alternative that could bypass the country entirely and reshape regional clean energy investment flows.

Saudi Arabian Refineries Company, known as SARCO, has signed a non binding memorandum of understanding with China’s Ally Hydrogen Energy Co., Ltd. to jointly develop a green ammonia production plant alongside a manufacturing and assembly hub for hydrogen production and purification equipment.

China, where coal-based blast furnaces still account for about 90 percent of steel production and roughly 15 percent of national CO2 emissions, is expanding its hydrogen strategy beyond transport into sectors including steelmaking, shipping, aviation, and chemicals.

Egypt is positioning green hydrogen and Sustainable Aviation Fuel as part of a broader strategy to align its aviation sector with tightening international emissions standards and emerging low-carbon fuel markets.

EDP has halted its planned green hydrogen project in Aboño, northern Spain, citing delays in the Spanish government’s implementation of European hydrogen regulations that are expected to define usage mandates, market incentives, and compliance frameworks.

A reported 93.9 percent energy utilization efficiency, roughly one-third higher than conventional thermal hydrogen storage methods, is drawing attention to a new gas-solid battery prototype developed by researchers at the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics under the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Global clean hydrogen production is now expected to reach only 150 million to 160 million tonnes annually by 2050, according to DNV’s latest hydrogen outlook, marking a sharp downgrade from the company’s earlier expectations and reinforcing growing concerns that the hydrogen economy is advancing far more slowly than governments and developers anticipated just a few years ago.
