A new report from the International Chamber of Shipping suggests that industrial demand, particularly from energy-intensive sectors such as chemicals, steel, and cement, will drive the surge in hydrogen demand in the coming decades. The report outlines a shift where industries are expected to be the primary consumers of hydrogen, with the transport sector following. The scenarios presented indicate a significant increase in hydrogen demand by 2040, with Europe, South Korea, and Japan emerging as key import markets. To achieve Net Zero emissions by 2050, global hydrogen demand would need to expand fivefold, posing a challenge that also presents an opportunity for industry growth. The report emphasizes the essential role of infrastructure development, particularly in ports, to facilitate the transportation of hydrogen and its derivatives. The maritime sector is identified as a crucial player in enabling the hydrogen economy, with projections suggesting a substantial increase in ammonia vessel numbers to meet the growing demand. The need for a substantial increase in renewable energy commitment and the development of clean energy hubs are highlighted as critical components for realizing a hydrogen economy. Despite challenges, the report maintains a positive outlook on the potential for hydrogen to play a significant role in decarbonizing global industries.
