North America holds 39.6% of the market share in the global hydrogen storage market. The large presence of major gas companies along with strong government support for hydrogen infrastructure development has enabled North America to take clear leadership. With U.S. being one of the top consumers of hydrogen globally, production and storage facilities are well developed to cater to extensive domestic needs. Presence of international hydrogen storage technology developers and system integrators in the region has strengthened the North American market. Countries like the U.S. and Canada offer favorable business environment and have attracted substantial investments for setting up large scale production-linked storage facilities near hydrogen consuming industrial clusters.

Asia Pacific region is witnessing the fastest growth and has started to emerge as the new hotspot for the global hydrogen storage market. Rapid economic development and growth in energy intensive industries across nations like China and India has fuelled the demand for cleaner energy sources including hydrogen. Both China and Japan are now focusing heavily on developing a hydrogen-based economy to achieve their environment protection goals. This has opened up massive opportunities for hydrogen storage players. Countries in the Southeast Asian nations are also promoting hydrogen as a transport fuel which will further aid the market expansion. Developing storage infrastructure near ports for facilitating hydrogen imports is a key focus area. The extensive research landscape for hydrogen storage technologies coupled with relatively lower capital costs have made Asia Pacific region an automaker's preferred destination for setting up manufacturing plants with built-in hydrogen storage facilities.

Germany has solidified its position as the European hub for hydrogen storage sector. Strong presence of automotive and industrial majors with aggressive target to switch to hydrogen has boosted infrastructure development. Government initiatives and formation of hydrogen valley clusters to encourage innovation and commercialization has attracted investments from global players. The ambitious hydrogen strategy and policies have created conducive business environment. However, lack of cross border hydrogen transportation network remains a challenge, which if addressed can further accelerate regional market growth.
