The North America data centre cooling market size reached approximately USD 7.76 Billion in 2024. The market is assessed to grow at a CAGR of 11.80% between 2025 and 2034 to attain a value of around USD 23.67 Billion by 2034.
Key Trends in the Market
Data centre cooling refers to tools, equipment, processes, systems, and techniques that ensure temperature, humidity, cooling, and ventilation levels within data centres are ideal. It removes excess heat from the air and replaces it with cool air.
- The surging adoption of technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence (AI), and edge computing is anticipated to fuel the North America data centre cooling market growth in the forecast period. As data centre managers are increasingly adding computing power, the adoption of data centre cooling solutions to ensure optimal temperature and humidity is increasing.
- Growing concerns regarding excessive humidity and heat that can lead to malfunctioning and damage of equipment and appliances are key North America data centre cooling market trends. With data centres facing challenges such as space constraints, constant technological innovations, innovative chip designs, and high computing power requirements, the demand for cooling solutions that manage the power density and surge energy efficiency of data centres is growing.
- Innovations aimed at surging the efficiency of cooling in data centres are anticipated to fuel the North America data centre cooling market demand in the coming years. There is an increasing adoption of methods such as direct-to-chip cooling which reduces airflow requirements, boosts processing capacities, offers precise targeted cooling, and minimises changes in equipment overheating to prevent data centre downtime.
- Increasing attempts to reduce energy consumption of data centres are anticipated to surge the adoption of precise and high-performance cooling solutions that minimise the use of natural resources and fossil fuels. In addition, the development of highly efficient cooling techniques that can enhance the sustainability of data centres and reduce carbon emissions of an organisation is further expected to aid the North America data centre cooling market expansion in upcoming years.
