Southeast Asia – Global Hydrogen Review 2025 – Analysis
Projects in the pipeline for low-emissions hydrogen production to 2030 add up to almost 480 ktpa. More than 90% of this in Indonesia and Malaysia; two projects alone represent nearly half of

The proportion of hydrogen filling stations already in operation in East Asia continued to rise. At the end of 2024, there were 748 hydrogen filling stations in operation in
19,000 electric buses on Beijing''s roads while hydrogen buses queue for expensive hydrogen or rust in parking lots. Even China can''t make hydrogen for transportation work.
Respondents were given eight clean energy options namely, solar energy, hydropower, wind energy, green hydrogen, biofuels, geothermal energy, nuclear energy and
An estimate from a recent Hydrogen Council report suggests that Asia will require $90 billion investment in hydrogen projects by 2030. These countries are key investors in the
By the end of 2022, 814 hydrogen refuelling stations were in operation worldwide, available across 37 countries. Outperforming every country, South Korea was the country adding the
At a country level, China had the largest number of HRS in operation (359) at the end of 2023, followed by Japan (161), and South Korea (159). Within Europe, Germany was the market

This is the result of an analysis by H2stations.org. 45 countries now have a hydrogen refuelling infrastructure in operation or under construction. However, by the end of 2024 there were only 1,160 hydrogen refuelling stations in operation worldwide. Of these, 748 were in Asia, with China leading the way with 384 stations.
Of these, 748 were in Asia, with China leading the way with 384 stations. South Korea had 198 refuelling stations, while Japan had 161 refuelling sites. By comparison, the hydrogen infrastructure in Europe is still sparse: at the end of last year, there were only 294 refuelling stations, most of them in Germany: 113 refuelling stations.
In 2019, there were 33 publicly available hydrogen fuel stations in operation in South Korea. In November 2023, however, due to hydrogen supply problems and broken stations, most fueling stations in South Korea offered no hydrogen.
