Summary and extracts
1 Market Overview
1.1 Definition and presentation
Hydrogen, known by the chemical formula "H2," has several applications in a variety of processesindustry and also in various sectors, mainly as a source of energy. Pure hydrogen is very difficult to find in nature; in fact, it is often bound with other raw elements and requires a chemical process to be extracted and "purified." Depending on the sustainability of the refining process from which hydrogen is extracted, it could be defined by different colors: black, gray, blue, purple and green. Black is the hydrogen whose refining produces the most CO2, while green is the most sustainable. Today, hydrogen is only a small fraction of the EU's energy mix, and more than 95 % is extracted from fossil fuels, mainly natural gas. Green hydrogen will be a great solution to be more sustainable and drastically reduce CO2 emissions for both industrial enterprises and automobiles.
The global hydrogen market closed 2020 with a market value of $120.77 billion, and is expected to grow between 2021and 2028 with a CAGR of 5.7 %.
In Italy, hydrogen is currently almost entirely limited to industrial applications in refining and chemicals (ammonia), and is generally in gray, highly polluting form derived from methane. In Italy, the current end-use of hydrogen is 16 TWh, or about 1 % of total final energy consumption (1,436 TWh), and is equivalent to about 480,000 t/year, of which about 8,500 t/year is marketed in special cylinders and tubes. By 2050, hydrogen is expected to account for more than a quarter of all energy demand in Italy. The Ministry of Economic Development estimates that up to 10 billion euros will be invested in Italy between 2020 and 2030 to jumpstart the low-carbon hydrogen sector and meet the hydrogen demand penetration target (to which investments for renewable deployment should be added).
The potential of hydrogen, as well as Italy's particularly favorable geographic and climatic conditions, can be used to meet Italy's ecological and, consequently, energy transition goals.
