Global Blue Hydrogen Market By Technology, By End-User, By Region: Global Insights, Trends and Forecast, 2023 – 2031 & Competitive insights
Global Blue Hydrogen Market Accounted for US$ 17.89 Billion in 2022, growing at an estimated CAGR of 12.2% from 2023-2031.
Blue hydrogen is a low-carbon alternative to traditional hydrogen production. It is generated through a process called steam methane reforming (SMR) with carbon capture and storage (CCS). This method extracts hydrogen from natural gas while capturing and storing the resulting carbon emissions, reducing the environmental impact and making hydrogen production more sustainable.
In the global blue hydrogen market, by technology, steam methane reforming is the dominating segment. It is a well-established and widely used method for producing hydrogen from natural gas. The technology is favored for its efficiency and maturity, making it a common choice for large-scale hydrogen production, particularly in industrial applications.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis on Global Blue Hydrogen Market
Pre-COVID-19, the blue hydrogen market was on a growth trajectory, driven by increased focus on clean energy and emissions reduction. However, the pandemic initially disrupted supply chains and project timelines, causing temporary setbacks. Post-COVID-19, the market rebounded as environmental concerns remained paramount, reaffirming the significance of blue hydrogen in achieving decarbonization goals. The pandemic underscored the importance of sustainable energy sources, leading to renewed investments and policy support, contributing to the blue hydrogen market’s recovery and long-term growth prospects.
Report Coverage and Deliverables:
A significant driver in the blue hydrogen market is stringent environmental regulations aimed at reducing carbon emissions. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), global carbon dioxide emissions must decline rapidly to achieve climate goals. Blue hydrogen, produced with carbon capture and storage (CCS), aligns with these objectives. The Global CCS Institute reported that CCS could capture 19% of global emissions by 2040.
Governments and industries, under pressure to meet emissions targets, are increasingly investing in blue hydrogen as it offers a pathway to significantly lower carbon footprints and compliance with emissions reduction mandates. A notable restraint in the blue hydrogen market is the substantial initial capital investment required for building blue hydrogen production facilities. These facilities, including CCS infrastructure, are capital-intensive. This study estimates that the initial capital costs for blue hydrogen production with CCS could be two to four times higher than traditional gray hydrogen production. This high upfront expenditure poses challenges for investors and companies, especially in a competitive energy market, and can slow down the widespread adoption of blue hydrogen until economies of scale are achieved.
In the global blue hydrogen market by end user, petroleum refinery is the dominating segment. These facilities require substantial hydrogen for refining processes, such as hydrocracking and hydro-treating, to remove impurities from crude oil and produce cleaner fuels. Blue hydrogen offers an attractive option to meet this demand while simultaneously reducing carbon emissions, aligning with the industry’s increasing focus on sustainability and emissions reduction.
North America dominated the global blue hydrogen market in 2022. On the other hand The European Union had laid out ambitious plans for hydrogen adoption as part of its Green Deal initiative, with a strong emphasis on blue hydrogen produced with carbon capture and storage (CCS). Investments in blue hydrogen projects were significant, driven by a regulatory framework that encouraged hydrogen production for various applications, including industrial processes and transportation.
