Key Ideas
- Over 1,000 hydrogen refuelling stations were operational worldwide by the end of 2024, with a significant increase compared to the previous year.
- Europe led the way with 294 stations, followed by Asia with 748 stations, including 384 in China.
- South Korea emerged as a leader in hydrogen infrastructure outside China, with 198 operational refuelling stations.
- LBST's H2stations.org provides comprehensive data on global hydrogen refuelling stations, aiding industry insights and future planning.
In 2024, the global hydrogen refuelling infrastructure reached a significant milestone with over 1,000 operational stations worldwide. The expansion included the opening of approximately 125 new stations across various regions, showcasing a growing commitment to hydrogen as an alternative fuel source. Notably, Europe, Asia, and North America saw substantial increases in refuelling stations, with key players like China, South Korea, and Japan leading the way. With 45 countries now having hydrogen refuelling infrastructure in operation or under construction, the industry is witnessing a steady growth trajectory. The data, compiled by H2stations.org, a service of LBST GmbH, highlights the progress and distribution of these stations globally. The report also noted the emergence of previously untapped markets like New Zealand, Bulgaria, and Slovakia, indicating a more widespread adoption of hydrogen technology. LBST's dedication to providing detailed information on hydrogen refuelling stations through H2stations.org has been instrumental in facilitating informed decision-making for industry stakeholders. The positive trend in station expansions underscores a collective effort towards enhancing sustainability and promoting clean energy solutions on a global scale.
