eBook | The hydrogen opportunity from now to 2050: what utilities and developers need to know

How Lens Hydrogen is helping utilities, developers and IPPs capitalise on the US$2 trillion hydrogen opportunity

1 minute read

Demand for low-carbon energy will dominate the coming decades, making net zero a US$63 trillion investment opportunity for new technologies like hydrogen. Electrification is playing a key role in shifting the fuel mix, creating staggering growth in renewable project investment. But in hard-to-electrify sectors, alternatives must be found. At the same time, the intermittency of wind and solar power creates a need for large-scale storage solutions that can balance fluctuations and ensure grids can flex to meet demand. 

Hydrogen is a key part of the answer, but to make the right decisions, developers, utilities and IPPs need visibility of the full hydrogen value chain and access to accurate, granular data that answers key questions. Wood Mackenzie's Lens Hydrogen platform gives you the critical intelligence you need to capitalise on this game-changing opportunity.

Our recent eBook draws on insights from our powerful Lens Hydrogen platform to provide utilities and developers with a timeline-based view on the outlook for low-carbon ammonia and e-fuels through to 2050.
