European Giants Lead in Green Hydrogen Software Development
Key Ideas
  • Siemens is ranked as the top software provider for the green hydrogen industry, followed closely by Schneider Electric and ABB.
  • The analysis by ABI Research evaluated companies involved in software for hydrogen electrolysis processes, considering factors like impacts on project spending and plant support capabilities.
  • Demand for green hydrogen software solutions is expected to rise in the future due to the growing emphasis on lower-emission fuels.
  • While hydrogen produced from electrolysis may require fossil fuels, green hydrogen is made using renewable energy sources, presenting a cleaner alternative to conventional fuels.
A recently released report by ABI Research ranks European industrial technology giants at the forefront of software development supporting the green hydrogen industry. Siemens from Germany emerged as the top software provider in the green hydrogen sector, narrowly beating Schneider Electric from France, with ABB from Switzerland securing the third position. The evaluation considered factors such as impacts on hydrogen project spending and plant support capabilities across electrolysis systems. Siemens was praised for its partnerships in key hydrogen production areas, fleet management capabilities, and market-leading digital twins technology. The report highlighted the increasing demand for software solutions in the green hydrogen sector, driven by the global shift towards lower-emission fuels. While the production of hydrogen fuel through electrolysis may rely on fossil fuel-derived energy, green hydrogen is produced using low- or zero-carbon renewable energy sources, making it an attractive alternative to traditional fossil fuels. The potential of green hydrogen as a cleaner energy source is gaining momentum, signaling a promising future for software developers catering to the green hydrogen industry.
