Platinum for green hydrogen
(PresseBox) - Platinum acts as a catalyst in fuel cells and thus benefits from the green revolution.
Above all, countries such as China and India are focusing on hydrogen technology, which can be used particularly effectively in heavy-duty transport. The white metal could therefore become an extremely sought-after raw material. After all, hydrogen can be an important component of the energy transition. There are also already signs of a supply deficit, which will have an impact on the price of the metal. There are different opinions about the size of the deficit. In any case, last year s supply surplus has turned into a deficit. Green hydrogen production could require the equivalent of 2.7 million ounces of platinum by the end of the decade, according to forecasts by the World Platinum Investment Council (WPIC).
Total demand for platinum has increased by about one million ounces compared to last year. Twelve percent of this comes from the automotive industry and about 17 percent from other industries. Overall, around 40 percent of platinum demand comes from the auto industry. Palladium is increasingly being replaced by platinum in catalytic converters for gasoline engines. Incidentally, around 40 percent of platinum comes from Russia.
