Challenges
Lack of infrastructure
The hydrogen is essential in fuel cell operations. The infrastructure for hydrogen production, storage, transportation, and distribution is known as hydrogen infrastructure. The hydrogen must be distributed once it has been produced. It can be delivered to its final destination via pipelines or other modes of transport. The availability of hydrogen fuel pumps is critical for the commercialization of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. Various parts of the world, however, lack the necessary infrastructure for hydrogen delivery. The scarcity of hydrogen fueling infrastructure may have an impact on future demand for hydrogen generation by fuel cell-powered vehicles. Developing hydrogen fueling stations would necessitate significant investment and intensive support from both public and private entities. Thus, the lack of infrastructure is a huge challenge for the growth of the fuel cell market during the forecast period.
