Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Fuel Cell Market for CHP Applications 2016-2020" report to their offering.

The global fuel cell market for CHP applications to grow at a CAGR of 24.96% during the period 2016-2020.

Global Fuel Cell Market for CHP Applications 2016-2020, has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers the market landscape and its growth prospects over the coming years. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.

According to the report, one of the primary drivers in the market is increasing demand for efficient and cleaner technologies. Thermal power plants produce excess heat, and this waste heat is usually released into the atmosphere through cooling towers and other means, which results in lower power generation efficiency. In the US, the efficiency of electricity generation has remained stagnant at about 35% since the 1960s, with the total amount of heat wasted in this process being more than Japan's overall power generation. The growing demand for electricity and the consciousness toward using cleaner energy sources are driving the need for CHP, where the waste heat is captured to either produce heat for industries and businesses or to power turbines to generate more electricity.
