Global Market Size, Forecast, and Trend Highlights Over 2024-2036

HVAC System Market size was valued at USD 232.8 billion in 2023 and is likely to reach USD 438.2 billion by the end of 2036, expanding at around 7.7% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2024-2036. In 2024, the industry size of HVAC systems is evaluated at USD 247.7 billion.

With the rising stringency of carbon restrictions, there will be an increasing demand for energy-efficient buildings. As per the International Energy Agency, in 2022, building energy efficiency investments climbed by almost 14% to exceed USD 250 billion. Energy-efficient HVAC systems are therefore becoming increasingly necessary for both new construction and building retrofits. For instance, buildings that have undergone retrofitting can cut their energy use for heating and cooling by 50-90%. In addition, a well-maintained and energy-efficient HVAC system can significantly cut energy usage, and enable commercial buildings to lower their operating expenses and their carbon impact. Furthermore, it is anticipated that tax breaks and government programs that encourage the installation of energy-saving devices will promote the usage of HVAC systems and will have a favorable effect on HVAC system market expansion.

HVAC System Sector: Growth Drivers and Challenges

Growth Drivers

  • Rising global temperatures: The alarming global warming and concerns about environmental sustainability have led to a shift from the use of natural fossil fuels to home electrification, including washing machines, ESS solutions, air conditioners, dishwashers, and EV charging stations. In 2023, the average global temperature rose by around 1.2 degrees over pre-industrial levels. Increased global temperatures, especially in warmer climates, lead to a greater dependence on air conditioning equipment to keep interior temperatures safe and comfortable.
  • Increasing integration of Internet of Things (IoT): Smart HVAC Systems are the result of a revolutionary change in HVAC technology with the integration of IoT. This allows real-time energy consumption monitoring, and obtaining data regarding the effectiveness of the system. IoT makes HVAC smart, by enabling preventative maintenance using condition-based insights and helps mitigate maintenance costs. By 2030, there will be over 30 billion Internet of Things (IoT) devices globally, nearly doubling from 15 billion in 2023.
  • Incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) in HVAC systems:  With the potential to improve building efficiency, sustainability, and health, the future seems promising for AI-based automated heating and cooling systems. By evaluating data on usage patterns, AI-powered solutions are utilized to optimize the energy consumption of HVAC systems and provide a new degree of individualized comfort management. For instance, HVAC systems can lower energy use over 25% by utilizing AI's capacity to analyze massive volumes of real-time data.

Challenges

  • Exorbitant initial and maintenance costs: The initial cost of purchasing energy-efficient HVAC systems may be higher owing to the government's more stringent environmental laws in recent years which have increased the cost of manufacturing.

    Additionally, air conditioners are typically more expensive since they require more connectivity, have more sophisticated capabilities than heating units, and the need for better service.
  • Environmental impact: Since the majority of HVAC systems run on electricity and require refrigerant, they contribute significantly to both global energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. The main challenge with air conditioners is that they release potent greenhouse gasses called hydrofluorocarbon refrigerants, that possess a significant GWP (global warming potential). As per the data of the United Nations Environment Programme, about 14,800 times more global warming potential (GWP) than carbon dioxide over 100 years is associated with hydrofluorocarbon (HFC)-23.

HVAC System Segmentation

Equipment Type (Cooling, Heating, Ventilation)

The cooling segment in the HVAC system market is poised to gain the largest share of 45.5% in the coming years. The segment's tremendous growth rate can be augmented by the rapidly increasing market for air conditioners, particularly in warm, developing nations regions where temperatures are rising. In most nations, including Brazil, Thailand, Japan, Kenya, Nigeria, Australia, and Spain, more people use their air conditioners to stay cool during extreme heat waves. As per the International Energy Agency, it is anticipated that by 2050, up to 2.5 billion homes in warmer countries will own air conditioning units. Moreover, in hot areas where the entire structure needs to be cooled for extended periods, air conditioning is especially helpful in transforming living. Furthermore, there will be a substantial need for cooling as urban air temperature and solar radiation have grown.

Application (Residential, Commercial, Industrial)

The residential segment in the HVAC system market is estimated to be the fastest-growing segment with a significant CAGR by 2036. This segment's rapid growth is attributed to the expanding rate of household air pollution caused by inadequate ventilation. A 2023 World Health Organization (WHO) report estimated that in 2020, household air pollution caused 3.2 million annual deaths, including approximately 237,000 deaths of children under the age of five. Eliminating the sources of dangerous pollutants such as allergens, and pathogens is an effective strategy to lessen their presence in households, which is possible to achieve with an HVAC system that incorporates cutting-edge filtration and purification technology that may considerably enhance indoor air quality. HVAC systems are important for infection control as they can have an impact on the mobility of infectious aerosols.

Application (New Construction Buildings, Retrofit Buildings)

The new construction buildings segment in the HVAC system market is projected to generate significant revenue over the coming years. This could be on account of the increasing number of hotels in the construction pipeline which might need HVAC systems to ensure that visitors are comfortable according to their unique requirements and preferences. For instance, as of the first quarter of 2024, there were more than 6190 hotels under development worldwide. Expanding construction endeavors encompassing the building of hotels is one of the main markets for HVAC systems. Air handling (AHU) systems are made especially for lodging facilities to circulate and purify the air, which may improve the summertime visitor experience when it's hot outside or when high humidity is likely to be uncomfortable.
