Hydrogen Fuel Cell Train Market Size, Share, Competitive Landscape Forecast, 2025-2035

According to the report, the global hydrogen fuel cell train industry is expected to generate $2.67 billion in 2025, and is anticipated to reach $26.41 billion by 2035, witnessing a CAGR of 28.2% from 2026 to 2035.

A hydrogen fuel cell train is a type of train powered by hydrogen fuel cells, which generate electricity through a chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen. This reaction produces electricity to power the train's electric motors, with water and heat as the only byproducts, making it an eco-friendly alternative to traditional diesel-powered trains. Hydrogen fuel cell trains are particularly useful for non-electrified rail lines, offering a sustainable solution for reducing emissions and supporting green transportation initiatives.

An increase in investments in railway infrastructure development, surge in environmental concerns, and rise in demand for public transport services drive the growth of the global hydrogen fuel cell train market. However, high capital requirement for development of hydrogen fuel cell trains and refurbishment of existing rolling stocks are expected to hinder the growth of the industry. On the other hand, increase in R&D activities related to hydrogen fuel cell technology and increase in demand for trains for passenger transportation are expected to create enormous opportunities for the market during the forecast period.

Based on technology, the proton exchange membrane fuel cell segment is anticipated to hold the highest market share in 2025, accounting for nearly two-fifths of the global hydrogen fuel cell train market, and is estimated to maintain its leadership status throughout the forecast period. Moreover, the same segment is projected to manifest the highest CAGR of 29.5% from 2026 to 2035, owing to increase in use of proton exchange membrane fuel cells as energy sources in trains to reduce CHE emissions. The report also analyzes Phosphoric Acid Fuel Cell.

Based on application, the passenger train segment is expected to hold the highest market share in 2025, accounting for nearly two-thirds of the global hydrogen fuel cell train market, and is estimated to maintain its leadership status throughout the forecast period, owing to increase in demand for public transportation across the globe. However, the freight train segment is projected to manifest the highest CAGR of 29.3% from 2026 to 2035, owing to rise in international trade and increase in cross-border rail freight transport.

Based on region, Europe is estimated to hold the highest market share in terms of revenue 2025, accounting for more than one-thirds of the global hydrogen fuel cell train market. Moreover, the same region is expected to witness the fastest CAGR of 30.2% from 2026 to 2035, owing to increase in government support for zero emission technology from European Union. The report also analyzes North America, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

1. Spread of COVID-19 has already negatively influenced the global train market, which impacted growth of the fuel cell train market, globally. For instance, major rolling stock manufacturers such Stadler Rail AG and Alstom have announced suspension of production, owing to decline in demand, supply chain bottlenecks, and to protect safety of their employees in France, Germany, Italy, the U.S., and Spain during the COVID-19 pandemic.

2. The COVID-19 outbreak forced governments across the globe to implement stringent lockdown and ban import-export of essential raw material items for most of 2020, and few months in 2021. This led to sudden decline in demand for passenger rail vehicles, further impacting growth of the rolling stock industry.
The COVID-19 pandemic not only affected operations of the rolling stock industry, but economic crisis also led to reduction in expenditure on next-generation technologies, for instance, hydrogen trains.

3. The demand for rolling stock experienced recovery in 2021 as operations of manufacturing companies and factories resumed, initiating continuation of railway projects around the world. Leading market players are taking various measures to deal with the negative effects of the outbreak of COVID-19. For instance, CRRC (China) is using the current market scenario to further strengthen its position by making strategic future-oriented investments and following a strict cost management program.

4. Government authorities and operators are expected to accelerate and resume metro projects and expansion of the rail network after pandemic, which is anticipated to positively affect growth of the rolling stock market in post pandemic situation, which is expected fuel development of the hydrogen fuel cell train market.
