Water-based Heating & Cooling Systems Market by Heating (Heat Pump, Convector Heater, Radiator, Boiler), Cooling (Chiller, AHU, Cooling Tower, Tank), Cooling Type (Direct, Indirect), Implementation Type, Vertical & Region - Global Forecast to 2028
The global water-based heating & cooling systems market is expected to be valued at USD 37.7 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 55.2 billion by 2028; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.9% from 2023 to 2028. Government regulations and industry standards play a significant role in driving the development and adoption of low-GWP refrigerants. Countries and regions are implementing measures to phase out high-GWP refrigerants and promote the use of environmentally friendly alternatives. Organizations like the European Union’s F-Gas Regulation and international agreements like the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol provide guidelines and targets for the phase-down of high-GWP refrigerants.
“AHU in cooling component to account for the second largest market share for water-based cooling systems market.”
Air Handling Units (AHUs) play a crucial role in water-based cooling systems, serving multiple key use cases. One major application of AHUs is in large commercial or industrial buildings where central air conditioning is required. AHUs are responsible for circulating cooled air throughout the building, maintaining a comfortable indoor environment. Additionally, AHUs are commonly used in data centers, where precise temperature and humidity control are essential for the reliable operation of sensitive equipment. By incorporating AHUs into water-based cooling systems, data centers can efficiently remove the heat generated by servers and other electronics, maintaining optimal operating conditions.
“Commercial vertical to account for the highest CAGR of water-based heating & cooling systems market.”
Water-based heating and cooling systems are an essential component of modern office buildings as they provide a comfortable and healthy indoor environment for occupants. The water-based heating and cooling systems in office buildings include various components such as air handling units, chillers, boilers, cooling towers, and radiators. Thus, the increasing demand for economic and cost-saving HVAC systems in offices is expected to propel the growth of the water-based heating and cooling systems market.
