HVAC Market - Global Outlook & Forecast 2023-2028

HVAC Market - Global Outlook & Forecast 2023-2028

The global HVAC market size is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.43% from 2022-2028.

The global market is undergoing tremendous modifications due to the increasing integration of the Internet of Things (IoT) technology with HVAC products, making them innovative and accessible. The emphasis on connecting several sensors within building ecosystems, including HVAC, has grown for achieving energy efficiency.

In 2022, the major economies in APAC, including China, Japan, and India, witnessed increasing commercial construction activities due to an expanding number of companies in various sectors setting up their offices in distinct regions to capture the target and potential customer base. In the APAC region, the increasing demand for energy-efficient HVAC systems and stringent regulations for the use of explosion-proof HVAC equipment is boosting the adoption across industries. It will offer enormous growth opportunities in the HVAC market. Further, Middle East countries are witnessing drastic climate changes. Rising temperatures and heat waves increased the demand for HVAC systems in commercial and residential buildings to control indoor climate conditions, further propelling the HVAC market growth. Along with providing residents with comfort, filtering can also improve indoor air quality. Hence these factors propel sales growth across the Middle East & Africa region during the forecast period.

MARKET TRENDS & DRIVERS

Replacement of Existing Equipment with Energy Efficient Products

In 2020, the commercial sector experienced the steepest decline due to the hard-hit hotel & motel industry and sports & convention centers. The commercial sector has witnessed constant growth since 2021, with the recovering economy. Energy-efficient HVAC technologies for residential and commercial buildings have the potential to provide environmental and economic benefits. They are optimizing energy-efficient HVAC technologies, and proper installation planning help to reach energy-saving potential by up to 40%. Therefore, replacing existing equipment with energy-efficient HVAC technologies will boost the growth rate of the HVAC market in the future.

Rising Construction Industry

In the long run, the construction industry globally is expected to experience steady growth due to low-interest rates in a few European countries and stable economic growth. The construction of hotels, amusement parks, private & government offices, and sports & convention centers is growing, thereby supporting the HVAC market in the construction sector.

The global HVAC market is highly dependent on the construction industry for revenue through new installations, whether residential or commercial. The refurbishment of buildings provides massive revenue to the HVAC industry. The industry witnessed an increased inflow of public and private investments, mainly in countries, such as Spain, Cyprus, Italy, and the Netherlands. In 2022, The Construction Intelligence Center (CIC) revised the growth forecast for the European construction industry. This was because of the improved performance of some significant developed city markets and a brighter outlook for the European economy.

SEGMENTATION ANALYSIS

INSIGHTS BY EQUIPMENT TYPE

HVAC commonly refers to heating, ventilation, cooling, collective heating, and cooling technologies used at commercial, residential, industrial, and public utility buildings. The heating equipment segment in the global HVAC market was valued at USD 91.06 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach USD 123.85 billion by 2028. The heating equipment industry is characterized by intense competition. The heating equipment is generally fragmented. Hence, the industry is characterized by many local/domestic vendors.

The air conditioning industry is characterized by the presence of many domestic and multinational vendors, and the industry is seasonal and characterized by modern technology. Air-conditioners are in the fastest-growing segment and have a vast addressable industry in developed and developing economies. APAC, Europe, and North America are expected to witness rapid growth in Air-conditioners by value because of higher construction activity and the demand for renovation activities.
