Low-emissions hydrogen production is growing strongly despite project delays and cancellations, according to the International Energy Agency.

The sector is on track to grow from less than 1% of total production today to around 4% in 2030, which the IEA says is “strong” for a nascent sector.

“If achieved, this would make growth in low-emissions hydrogen production comparable to the fast expansions of other clean energy technologies seen in recent years,” it states.
