Green hydrogen and the global energy transition

The development of the hydrogen economy is a necessary component of the global energy transition. Platinum Group Metals (PGMs) can play key roles in the production and use of green hydrogen from renewable energy as electrolyser and fuel cell technologies are scaling up fast, making platinum, ruthenium, and iridium mission-critical. Therefore, this report is essential for active companies in the hydrogen economy that need to understand the long-term PGM supply dynamics and for companies following the PGM markets that need to understand the future opportunities presented in the hydrogen value chain.

Critical PGM insights out to 2040

The analysis covers the role of hydrogen in decarbonisation, including its use as a chemical feedstock, heat source, and electricity/storage medium, alongside the global supply and demand outlook. It assesses the impacts on PGMs, considering current market balances, forecasted roles in hydrogen production, potential threats from alternative technologies and materials, and the significance of emerging markets and technologies. It also addresses:

• PGM availability

• Supply risk

• Pricing impacts on hydrogen uptake

• Recycling curves

• Scenario planning

• Investment in the hydrogen value chain

• Industrial due diligence

• Technical feasibility

• Business case assessments

The report also evaluates hydrogen production methods, adoption drivers, cost analysis, environmental impacts, and distribution and transportation methods. Policy support and regional impacts are analysed, along with use cases for green hydrogen in various industries such as chemical feedstocks, energy storage, and automotive sectors.
