Chinese Electrolyser Manufacturers Eye Global Expansion Amid Western Competition
20 November 2025 – Chinese electrolyser manufacturers are increasingly targeting international markets, seeking to expand beyond domestic production and compete with established Western companies. Analysts from VNZ Insights note that Chinese firms are leveraging lower production costs to offer competitive pricing for green hydrogen projects in Europe, potentially undercutting Western manufacturers.
Western companies, meanwhile, are also pursuing international growth. India, in particular, has emerged as a key target for expansion, given its rapidly growing hydrogen demand and renewable energy ambitions. This dynamic suggests that the global electrolyser market is becoming increasingly competitive, with both Chinese and Western firms seeking strategic partnerships, technology development, and project deployment across multiple regions.
Hygreen Energy, a notable manufacturer, exemplifies the technology advances in the sector, highlighting the rapid pace of innovation and deployment in electrolyser systems. As global hydrogen demand accelerates, the balance between cost, technology, and market access will determine the leaders in the fast-evolving green hydrogen economy.
