The global Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) Fuel Cells market size is predicted to grow from US$ 3973 million in 2025 to US$ 4950 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.7% from 2025 to 2031.


Proton-exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC), also known as polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells, are a type of fuel cell being developed mainly for transport applications, as well as for stationary fuel-cell applications and portable fuel-cell applications. Their distinguishing features include lower temperature/pressure ranges (50 to 100 C) and a special proton-conducting polymer electrolyte membrane. PEMFCs generate electricity and operate on the opposite principle to PEM electrolysis, which consumes electricity. They are a leading candidate to replace the aging alkaline fuel-cell technology, which was used in the Space Shuttle.


According to data released by the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, in December 2022, the production and sales of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles in China was 653 and 607, respectively. In the whole year of 2022, the production and sales of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles was 3,626 and 3,367, a year-on-year increase of 105.4% and 112.8%, respectively. According to our Fuel Cell Research Center, by the end of 2022, the number of fuel cell vehicles in the world had reached 67,000 units, a year-on-year increase of 36.6%. Among them, the number of fuel cell vehicles in China was 12,682 units.
