The global solid oxide fuel cell market size is expected to reach USD 7,124.40 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 40.7% according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Growing expenditure on infrastructure and industry development is expected to have a positive impact on the global market in the forecast period.

Installers and system providers usually hold stock of significant equipment in the inventory. However, manufacturers face bottlenecks and shortages due to the limited production in countries, severely affected by the COVID-19. Further, upcoming Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) based large-scale projects are expected to witness delays in commissioning due to the disruptions in supply chain and halting of on-site construction activities.

Rising awareness about alternative sources of energy is one of the major factors encouraging market growth. Increasing carbon emission levels is a global issue, and government authorities worldwide are supporting technological advancements to tackle the issue by providing research funding and drafting supportive policies and plans.
