North America Hydrogen Industry Report 2025: US Green Hydrogen Growth Stalls Amid Trump-Era Policy Shifts, Rising Costs, and Regulatory Hurdles
North America's share in the global low-carbon hydrogen market is expected to drop from 46% in 2025 to 28% by 2030, amid policy shifts under Trump's administration impacting green hydrogen efforts through funding cuts and high tariffs. While state projects continue, a shift towards blue hydrogen is evident. Dublin, May 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "North America Hydrogen Market Report - 2025" report has been added to America is losing ground in the global low-carbon hydrogen race, with its projected share of global capacity set to drop from 46% in 2025 to just 28% by 2030. The region faces growing headwinds from policy shifts, most notably under Trump's renewed administration, which is curbing green hydrogen momentum through halted funding, and high tariffs on imports. These changes are accelerating a pivot toward blue hydrogen and reinforcing regional disparities, as federal rollback contrasts with continued state and provincial America's position in the global low-carbon hydrogen market is weakening, with its share of global capacity projected to drop from 46% in 2025 to 28% by 2030. While the US now leads regionally, policy shifts under the Trump administration - halted IRA funding, stricter 45V rules, and new tariffs on steel, aluminum, and clean tech imports - are inflating costs and stalling green hydrogen growth. This is accelerating a pivot toward blue hydrogen. Canada's momentum has slowed due to project delays, chiefly those of GHI, while Mexico remains a marginal player. Despite federal setbacks, state and provincial initiatives, particularly in California, New York, Alberta, and Quebec, continue to support hydrogen development. Transport remains the key end-use sector, with growing interest from heavy-duty vehicle and industrial Highlights Although previously seen as a global leader in this sector, North America's share of the global low-carbon hydrogen capacity is expected to decrease from 46% in 2025 to 28% in 2030. North America ranks third globally for low-carbon hydrogen capacity, following Europe and Africa, with the US holding the majority of North America's hydrogen capacity, accounting for 63% of the region's total. Between 2024 and 2025 Canada lost its regional lead, due to the stalling and postponement of GHI projects. Whilst the US now ranks first in North America, and 76% of its pipeline capacity lies in post-feasibility stage projects, the overall outlook appears less optimistic, due to the current administration's plan to increase fossil fuel production at the expense of renewable energy development. Mexico remains a slow mover within the region's hydrogen market, with just 102ktpa of capacity across all of its active and upcoming projects.

Private sector participation important for hunger-free India: Amitabh Kant
India's G20 Sherpa Amitabh Kant on Wednesday highlighted the importance of private sector participation in achieving a 'hunger-free' India. Kant was speaking at the launch of Malabar Group's CSR initiatives, where the company announced 'The Hunger Free World', an initiative aiming to distribute 70,000 daily meals to underprivileged people in fiscal 2025-26. "If there are more groups like Malabar Group, we are able to transform the world. It requires continued collaboration between government, civil society, private sector and individuals," Kant said. 'Around 119 million people in India remain undernourished, with women and children bearing the heaviest burden,' he noted, adding that merely providing food is not enough — the focus must be on nutritious food. "It is also very important that private sector takes over this responsibility at the local level," he said. Hunger looms over India According to the Global Hunger Index (GHI) 2024, India ranks 105th out of 127 countries, highlighting significant hunger. With a GHI score of 27.3, India falls in the 'serious' category, indicating issues related to undernutrition and child health. The report notes that India's 13.7 per cent of the population is undernourished, reflecting insufficient calorific intake. Moreover, 35.5 per cent of children under the age of five are stunted, indicating chronic undernutrition, while 18.7 per cent suffer from wasting, a sign of acute undernutrition. The under-five mortality rate stands at 2.9 per cent, partly due to inadequate nutrition and healthcare. Globally, around 733 million people face hunger each day due to a lack of access to a sufficient amount of food, while about 2.8 billion people cannot afford a healthy diet, the report added.

Your Genes, Your Health: Why Genetic Testing Is the Smartest Wellness Move You Can Make
Last Updated: Genetic testing is transforming preventive healthcare by revealing hidden disease risks and empowering individuals—especially women—to make informed choices By now, we're used to thinking of our genes as the blueprint of who we are. But what if they could also serve as a map—guiding us through critical decisions about our health, long before any symptoms show up? With the rise of affordable, accessible genetic testing, that future is already here. Take the chilling cases of sudden cardiac deaths among elite athletes or seemingly healthy young adults diagnosed with advanced cancers—often without warning or obvious risk factors. According to Dr. Ashok Gopinath, Head – Partner Development, Strand Life Sciences, such scenarios, though rare, highlight a crucial truth: 'It is quite well established that beyond advanced age and lifestyle, genes play a significant role in the onset of diseases like cancer and cardiovascular conditions." In fact, about 10% of all cancers have a hereditary basis. 'Inherited BRCA mutations, for instance, confer a 69–72% lifetime risk for breast cancer and a 17–44% risk for ovarian cancer," adds Dr. Gopinath. That's compared to baseline population risks of just 5–12% and less than 1%, respectively. Despite this, genetic testing has traditionally been recommended reactively—after symptoms, or a strong family history, surface. But times are changing. Thanks to newer, non-invasive screening tools and plummeting costs, genetic testing is no longer a diagnostic tool of last resort—it's emerging as a proactive strategy. Tests like Genomic Health Insights (GHI) by Strand Life Sciences now allow individuals to screen for over 280 adult-onset genetic disorders, including various cancers and heart diseases, even in the absence of symptoms. 'We truly are fortunate to live in a time where every individual is empowered to take predictive tests and proactively understand their risk," says Dr. Gopinath. As someone who treats hundreds of women facing fertility struggles, Dr. Lekhi sees genetic testing as a revolution. 'From uncovering hidden causes of infertility and miscarriage to detecting risks for PCOS, endometriosis, or premature ovarian failure, your DNA contains vital clues," she explains. And it doesn't stop there. For patients undergoing IVF, preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) helps select the healthiest embryos, thereby increasing the chances of a successful pregnancy. Non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT), on the other hand, offers peace of mind by detecting chromosomal abnormalities early in pregnancy. Most importantly, genetic insights can help women take control of their reproductive futures. 'Whether it's freezing eggs at 20 or addressing inherited conditions before they compromise fertility, the possibilities are staggering," says Dr. Lekhi. 'Your genes aren't your fate—they're your map. And genetic screening? That's the compass guiding you intelligently." As science gives us more tools to understand our biology, the message is clear: we no longer have to wait for a diagnosis to act. In the evolving landscape of personalised healthcare, knowing your genetic risk may be the most empowering move you can make—for today and for the years to come.
