Current electrolyser manufacturing capacity is much larger than annual deployment. But expected increases in line with national strategies and announced industrial plans will require greatly increased capacity in the second half of the decade. China has the highest share of global electrolyser manufacturing capacity, at more than 40pc, with Europe coming second on 25pc and North America, Japan and India making up t
