Many electric and gas utilities announced investment plans to accelerate the production of green hydrogen for use as a source in power generation as a part of their decarbonization strategy, providing momentum to these projects in the U.S. For instance, in July 2020, NextEra Energy, a renewable generator company based in the U.S., announced an investment of USD 65 million to build a green hydrogen plant for generating power and light in Florida. With this facility, the company will use 20 MW electrolyzer for the generation of green hydrogen from solar power.

North America Market, By Material Type

The stainless-steel material type in the North America mass flow controller market is set to register 5% growth rate during the forecast timeline, attributed to the rising demand for continuous processing applications in the pharmaceutical sector in the US. For bioprocessing systems to manage the flow of diverse gases into bioreactor chambers, stainless steel offers high pressure, temperature, minimal maintenance, corrosion, and chemical resistant properties. In May 2020, Festo launched the VEMD flow control valve equipped with piezo technology, which is eminently ideal for healthcare & pharmaceutical and other industrial applications.

North America Market, By Material Country

Canada mass flow controller market will hold around 15% revenue share and is poised to expand at a CAGR of 3% through 2027. This growth can be credited to the growing number of funding activities and infrastructure development initiatives for the oil & gas industry by the government to strengthen the country’s economy. For instance, in 2021, Alberta, a Canadian province, invested USD 1.5 billion to start the construction project of Keystone XL pipeline expanding the market access. The employment of mass flow controllers in the oil & gas sector is fueled by processes such as production, distribution, treatment, and processing of hydrocarbon fluids, gases, and generated compounds.
