The study involved four major activities in estimating the current size of the hydrogen truck market. Exhaustive secondary research was done to collect information on the market, the peer market, and the child markets. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and sizing with the industry experts across value chains through primary research. The top-down and bottom-up approaches were employed to estimate the complete market size. Thereafter, market breakdown and data triangulation processes were used to estimate the market size of segments and subsegments.
In the secondary research process, various secondary sources such as company annual reports/presentations, press releases, industry association publications [for example, International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA), National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), International Energy Association (IEA)], articles, directories, technical handbooks, trade websites, technical articles, and databases (for example, Marklines, and Factiva) have been used to identify and collect information useful for an extensive commercial study of the global hydrogen truck market.
Extensive primary research was conducted after understanding the scenario of the hydrogen truck market through secondary research. Several primary interviews were conducted with market experts from both the demand (OEMs) and supply (fuel cell component providers, hydrogen integrators, and other component manufacturers) across three major regions: North America, Europe and Asia Pacific. Approximately 52% and 48% of primary interviews were conducted from the demand and supply sides. Primary data was collected through questionnaires, emails, and telephonic interviews.
In the canvassing of primaries, various departments within organizations, such as sales, operations, and administration, were covered to provide a holistic viewpoint in this report. After interacting with industry experts, brief sessions with highly experienced independent consultants were also conducted to reinforce the findings from primaries. This and the in-house subject-matter experts’ opinions led to the findings described in the remainder of this report.

Hydrogen Bus and Truck refers to heavy-duty vehicles powered by hydrogen fuel cells. A hydrogen fuel cell generates electricity through a chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen, which then powers the vehicle's electric motor. Hydrogen buses offer zero-emission transportation, helping to reduce air pollution in urban areas. They can be quickly refueled and provide a range comparable to or better than traditional diesel buses. Hydrogen trucks are designed for various applications, such as long-haul transportation, construction, and delivery services. They provide the benefits of zero emissions and can be refueled quickly, making them an effective alternative to diesel and CNG trucks.
