Description

According to the Market Statsville Group (MSG), the global fuel cell surge tank market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 3.5% from 2022 to 2030. Fuel Cell Surge Tank (FCST) is a drop-in fuel pump system for fuel cells (or any cell) that utilizes the industry-standard 6x10 24-bolt fill plate bolt pattern. It is designed to safeguard electronic fuel injection (EFI) vehicles that witness fuel starvation. It consists of a dual-chamber fuel tank inside the fuel cell with a single lift pump and has up to three surge tank pumps. However, it has all of the advantages of a standard external fuel surge tank without the safety concerns or plumbing hassles.

COVID-19 Impact on the Global Fuel Cell Surge Tank Market

COVID-19 has had a negative impact on the market’s growth. In order to manage the spread of COVID-19 government-imposed lockdowns resulted in the halted manufacturing process and disrupted supply chains. This led to a lack of availability of raw materials to manufacture FCST, and a lack of demand from end-user industries resulted in ideal stock, which results in hampering the growth of the market amid the pandemic. However, the online platform played a crucial role in keeping the market’s growth steady during the pandemic by enabling product providers to reach their customers online.
