Hydrogen is now seen as a good clean fuel for power production in the future because of its sustainability, scalability, and the ability to considerably reduce carbon emission (Arutyunov, 2022; Sharma et al., 2021). This research analyses the global hydrogen power projects using International Energy Agency (IEA) Hydrogen Projects Database (2024) and employs the use of some of the most important tools (MATLAB) for data processing, visualization and analysis of trends. The area of study is growing trends in projects, production technologies, geographical distribution, operation status and installed capacity of hydrogen projects worldwide. The findings show the sharp increase in the number of hydrogen projects starting from 2015, which reflects the global decarbonization and climate policies (Chapman et al., 2020; Qazi, 2022). Electrolysis is the recommended production technology, which suggests the rise of green hydrogen (Agyekum et al., 2022; Yu et al., 2021). Developed nations like Germany, Japan, United States and Australia lead in the deployment of projects, while the rate of adoption is slower in the developing regions. A majority of projects are in construction stage highlighting good future growth potential. Large scale hydrogen plants account for a substantial part of the world capacity. The study confirms that hydrogen is moving from pilot projects at both the laboratory and industrial scales to large useful frameworks and will play a critical role in accomplishing the carbon neutrality objective and changing future power generation frameworks (Egeland-Eriksen et al., 2021). A MATLAB/Simulink-based dynamic simulation is also performed to validate the operational feasibility of the renewable–hydrogen–fuel cell power system.
