Letter on hydrogen: Five factors to watch in 2025

From politics to power and pipelines, the year ahead looks challenging for the emerging clean hydrogen sector

The hydrogen industry will look back on 2024 as a disappointing year in terms of its growth, with production projects and pipelines delayed or cancelled. However, the number of projects achieving FID is rising, and 2025 is expected to see the industry regain momentum in some, if not all, regions. Here, Hydrogen Economist highlights some of the factors likely to shape the industry in 2025. US market The development of green and low-carbon hydrogen in the US stands at a crossroads as the industry awaits the incoming Trump administration. Blue hydrogen, which already has greater traction in the US market than green, looks better placed to continue to grow under the next administration ing 2025.
