The global steam reformer captive hydrogen generation market was valued at USD 117 billion in 2023 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of over 6.2% from 2024 to 2032. It refers to an on-site hydrogen production method where the hydrogen is generated at the point of use, such as within an industrial facility such as a refinery or chemical plant. This process involves the conversion of hydrocarbons, primarily natural gas, into hydrogen through a steam methane reforming process.
Rising demand for cost-efficient solutions for hydrogen generation offering high energy efficiency ranging from 65% to 75% will uplift the product adoption. Increasing demand for on-site clean fuel production, allowing industrial facilities, such as refineries and chemical plants, to maintain operational budgets while reducing dependency on external suppliers will improve the business scenario.
