'Fuel Cell Industry Analysis', Is An Evaluative Study On The Global Fuel Cell Industry.


DUBLIN Dublin, city, Republic of Ireland
Dublin, Irish Baile Átha Cliath, county borough (1991 pop. 915,516), Leinster, capital of the Republic of Ireland, on Dublin Bay at the mouth of the Liffey River.
, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c92963) has announced the addition of "Fuel Cell Industry Analysis" to their offering.

"Fuel Cell Industry Analysis", is an evaluative study on the global fuel cell industry. The report focuses on the growing marketplace for fuel cell industry at global as well country level and analyzes the current market trends, applications, technology and growth prospects of the fuel industry.

As per the report, although fuel cell technology has yet to go to masses, it is seeing growth across different countries. 2006 saw the dominance of Europe as a fuel cell manufacturer followed by Japan. Transportation & Stationary Stationary can mean:
  • Fixed in position, or mode: immobile.
  • Unchanging in condition or character.
  • In statistics and probability: a stationary process.
  • In mathematics: a stationary point.
  • In mathematics: a stationary set.
 remains the largest application area for the fuel cell technology, but the future growth of fuel cell vehicles

Main articles: Fuel cell vehicle and
A fuel cell vehicle is a vehicle that uses a fuel cell to power an electric drive system.
 largely depends upon hydrogen infrastructure, government policies and consumer behaviour.

The forecast given in the report is based on a correlation between previous drivers and growth of basic factors, such as fuel cell demand and industrial production performance.

*The countries in the report have been decided on the basis of their fuel cell activities and future growth prospects.

Key Findings

- Being at nascent nascent /nas·cent/ (nas´ent) (na´sent)
1. being born; just coming into existence.

2. just liberated from a chemical combination, and hence more reactive because uncombined.
 stage, fuel cell industry is highly dependent on funding from government sources. To remain competitive with conventional sources, huge R&D is required for development purposes.

- Western markets are expected to be the early adopters of fuel cell technology as advanced environment regulations, high energy cost, and environmental pressure will change the consumer behaviour.

- In 2006 total new units jumped to well over 7,000 with the cumulative total over 20,000. In terms of development by application, all sectors experienced gains with the niche transport sector and portable in particular exhibiting strong growth.

- Year 2006 saw the dominance of Europe as a fuel cell manufacturer, with North America North America, third largest continent (1990 est. pop. 365,000,000), c.9,400,000 sq mi (24,346,000 sq km), the northern of the two continents of the Western Hemisphere.  crashing to less than a fifth of all new units developed.

- To ensure the successful introduction of commercialization phase, vast improvement in infrastructure is required.
