Direct Methanol Fuel Cells Market
Overview
Direct Methanol
Fuel Cells (DMFC) produces electric power by the direct conversion of the
methanol fuel at the fuel cells anode. These fuel cells are often used as an
efficient alternative to internal combustion engine as they offer benefits such
as zero emission with higher reliability. The DFMCs have significant advantage
over batteries such as conventional batteries take hours to recharge whereas
DFMCs can be refuelled within minutes. In addition, research, and development
work associated with fuel cells technologies and government initiatives
globally on reduction of green-house gases emissions from power sector is
likely to drive the direct methanol fuel cells market. The COVID-19
Analysis of Global Direct Methanol Fuel Cells Market is enduring an exacting period with
its robust growth coming to an abrupt halt in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The
growing demand for direct methanol fuel
cells market is attributed to need for longer battery life and
capability to convert higher energy density fuel directly to electricity.
R&D initiatives to commercialize direct methanol fuel cells and develop
superior products is expected to create opportunity for the new industry
entrants as well as existing participants. One of the major restraints for the
global direct methanol fuel cells market is the low oil prices.
Segmentation
The
direct methanol fuel cells market has been segmented based on component into
electrode, membrane, balance of system, and balance of stack. Among these
components, balance of system segment is the fastest growing segment in the
direct methanol fuel cells market as it widely used in power applications.
Regional Outlook
Region
wise, Asia Pacific held the largest market share of the global Direct Methanol
Fuel Cells market in 2017. It is estimated that Asia-Pacific region would be
the fastest growing market during the forecast period, mainly due to the rising
investment in railway sector, rising urbanization and proliferation of
electrification. Europe region holds significant market share and is expected
to dominate the global Direct Methanol Fuel Cells market in terms of revenue
contribution. Germany is leading country contributing to the growth of the
European market. The market is mainly driven by factors such as the gradual
shift from diesel-based to diesel-electric locomotives and electric
locomotives.
