According to the report, the global hydrogen pipelines market is projected to expand from USD 7.3 billion in 2025 to USD 28.8 billion by 2035, registering a CAGR of 14.7%, the highest during the forecast period. The hydrogen pipelines market is growing steadily as the demand for hydrogen compatible transmission infrastructure and the development of large-scale backbone network is increasing.
The hydrogen project pipelines are anticipated to expand rapidly around the world with a significant amount of investment in production, transportation, and the development of integrated hydrogen infrastructure, which will be a key factor in the hydrogen pipelines market. For instance, in January 2025, Tata Steel reported the development of hydrogen-compliant API X65 steel pipes, highlighting advancements in material readiness required for safe hydrogen transport applications.
The European Hydrogen Backbone project highlights the need for the deployment of repurposed and new pipeline infrastructure to create a competitive, cross-border hydrogen market in Europe, while the IEA Hydrogen Infrastructure Projects Database shows a steady series of pipeline hydrogen transport projects globally, with increased investment and deployment activity. This is helping to support market expansion through increased material readiness, infrastructure planning guidelines and investor confidence on hydrogen transport systems.
Key Driver, Restraint, and Growth Opportunity Shaping the Global Hydrogen Pipelines Market
The lack of harmonized and standardized regulations for the construction and operation of hydrogen pipelines, both domestically and internationally, is one of the main constraints, potentially leading to delays and variations in the permitting process. The European Commission has highlighted regulatory alignment issues continue with its hydrogen and gas decarbonization framework, stalling pipeline coordinated development across member states.
The integration of hydrogen pipes with carbon capture and low-carbon industrial clusters presents a substantial possibility, providing shared infrastructure for decarbonization corridors. In 2025, ExxonMobil announced its plans to develop the Baytown low-carbon hydrogen project in the U.S. Gulf Coast Region, with hydrogen production systems and CO₂ capture systems to be interconnected within an industrial network, to complement future pipeline-connected hydrogen distribution.
