세계의 고체 산화물 연료전지 시장 - 예측(2025-2030년)

The Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Market is expected to climb from USD 1.985 billion in 2025 to USD 5.784 billion by 2030, with a 23.85% compound annual growth rate (CAGR).

The solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) market is poised for growth, driven by rising investments in sustainable energy solutions, increasing demand for renewable energy sources, and the development of energy-efficient systems to meet escalating power needs. Growing awareness of environmental sustainability, particularly the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, is boosting demand for SOFCs. Government subsidies and ongoing research and development in fuel cell programs further propel market expansion. North America and Europe exhibit significant demand for clean energy, fueled by stringent carbon emission regulations and heightened government focus on sustainability.

Market Segment Analysis

The SOFC market is segmented by application, end-user, region, and type. By application, the market includes stationary, portable, transportation, commercial & industrial, residential, and energy storage segments. The stationary segment is expected to dominate, holding a significant market share due to the rising demand for hydrogen-based fuel cells to address additional energy needs. The Asia Pacific region, particularly China, India, and South Korea, shows strong growth potential in this segment.

By end-user, the market is divided into data centers, military & defense, power generation, automotive, hydrogen generation, and others. Power generation is the leading segment, driven by the critical role of energy-efficient renewable sources in residential, commercial, and industrial activities, including military and data center applications. The increasing demand for data centers, particularly in the Asia Pacific due to rapid industrialization, positions this segment for notable growth. Military and defense applications also show significant potential.

By type, the market is categorized into tabular, planar, and thin sheet SOFCs, with the planar segment anticipated to hold a substantial market share. This growth is attributed to planar fuel cells' straightforward construction and favorable geometry, making them highly desirable.

Geographical Outlook

North America leads the SOFC market, driven by robust research and development in hydrogen generation and increasing demand for fuel cell power in the United States and Canada. The region is expected to maintain a significant market share with strong growth opportunities. The Asia Pacific region follows closely, with substantial growth potential, particularly in China, India, Japan, and South Korea. This growth is fueled by rising energy demands, industrialization, urbanization, and a focus on energy-efficient renewable sources to support environmental sustainability. Japan, in particular, sees increased demand for SOFCs in data centers and for heat and power generation in personal consumption. India benefits from government support and investment opportunities, further driving SOFC demand. Europe also holds a notable market share, supported by strict environmental regulations and a focus on clean energy solutions.

Recent Developments

In 2024, Doosan FuelCell, a South Korean company, advanced its SOFC development by signing an agreement with Ceres Power to develop high-efficiency SOFCs operating at 800°C or higher, targeting enhanced power generation efficiency. Additionally, Adelina is progressing on a UK Research and Innovation-funded project to develop hydrogen-based fuel cells by 2040, aligning with global decarbonization goals for heat, power, and transport applications.
