Based on process, the electrolysis segment is set to grow at a CAGR of over 6.8% through 2032. Rising demand for processes that can produce hydrogen without emitting carbon dioxide when powered by renewable energy sources are propelling process adoption. This further aligns with the chemical industry's growing commitment to sustainability, especially as pressure mounts from regulatory bodies, investors, and consumers to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and meet net-zero targets thereby boosting process adoption. Furthermore, expanding innovative research on proton exchange membrane (PEM) and solid oxide electrolyzers to improve energy efficiency and hydrogen production rates, reducing operational costs for chemical companies, additionally drive the market growth.
 

Asia Pacific captive chemical hydrogen generation market is predicted to hit USD 88 billion by 2032. Rising demand for clean fuel particularly from countries such as China, India, and Japan, for chemical process such as ammonia production, refining, and petrochemical synthesis are augmenting process penetration. Many countries are adopting aggressive clean fuel strategies to reduce their carbon footprints and promote cleaner energy leading to encourage chemical companies to invest in captive hydrogen production, particularly when tied to green or low-carbon hydrogen solutions.
 

In the U.S. federal support for hydrogen as part of the broader clean energy transition is a major market driver in the chemical industry. Programs such as the Hydrogen Shot Initiative, under the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), aim to cut hydrogen production costs by 80% by 2030. Furthermore, increasing companies shift towards onsite clean fuel production to meet decarbonization goals via electrolysis or other low-carbon methods, and reduce carbon intensity of high-emission chemical processes are fostering business landscape.
