Fuel Cell for Data Centers Market: Description
A fuel cell generates electricity using an electrochemical reaction, not combustion, and depending on the fuel source, produces near to zero polluting emissions. Utilization of fuel cell allows onsite power generation thereby reducing reliance over traditional grid system and using grid electricity in case of absence of fuel.
Fuel cells have emerged as the most viable alternative to solar, wind or grid-powered electricity due to low cost financing, government subsidies, and the companies desire to reduce their carbon footprint and energy costs. He growing demand for clean power generation with less or no emission is the primary factors driving market growth.
Moreover, various rules and regulations on carbon emission across the globe will drive the demand for fuel cells in the near future. Technological advancements in fuel cell usage specifically for data centers is expected the drive the market during the forecast period. In recent times, digitalization has touched every part of life including businesses. With wide acceptance of digitalization in regular work, the companies from various sectors are generating massive data.
With political leaders across the global coming together to reduce their country’s carbon footprint and signing of Paris agreement has given a boost to green and renewable technologies to set themselves in markets. Fuel cells being a non-emission solution for power generation fits the category green and renewable technologies and is growing owing to the carbon emission norms.
Fuel cell is itself a very expensive technology which directly affects the cost of fuel cell electric vehicles. The price of the 2019 Toyota Mirai is almost USD 58,500 in the US, whereas the 2019 Tesla Model 3 costs USD 36,000. The huge price difference between battery electric and fuel cell vehicles is a major challenge for the growth of FCEV sales.
