In 2023, the actual re-import value of hydrogen, rare gases, and non-metals to China stood at approximately $4.8 million USD. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 shows a consistent downward trend with values decreasing annually. Year-on-year reductions are observed across the forecast horizon, with 2025 seeing a decline, which continues steadily through to 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the next five years indicates a slight contraction annually.

Future trends to watch for:

Potential technological advancements that could impact the cost structure of these imports.
Shifts in global supply chains and China's domestic production capabilities.
Emerging policies on sustainable energy that might influence import volumes and values.
