HVAC stands for heating, ventilation, and air conditioning. HVAC drive is an electrical device used as a fan accessory that can increase and decrease the rotations per minute (RPM) of an alternating current (AC) motor. Such a device or system controls motor speed within the allowable operating range. Providing reasonable indoor air quality and thermal comfort is the key function of HVAC drives.
With rising energy costs and increased environmental awareness, energy efficiency remains a predominant trend. HVAC drives help reduce energy consumption by controlling the speed of motors in real-time based on the actual demand, significantly lowering energy usage, which fuels the HVAC drive market development. As urbanisation increases, there is a higher demand for comfortable living and working environments, which drives the need for effective HVAC systems and consequently the drives that support them. There is an increasing demand for the product in the construction of smart buildings both in the residential and commercial sectors as HVAC drive improves building energy efficiency. As a result, the market demand for HVAC drives is propelling across the world.
Sustainability and green building practices; Development of compact and modular drives; Building automation systems integration; and advancements in semiconductor technology are the major trends impacting the HVAC drive market growth
There is an increased focus on HVAC that contributes to green building certifications and HVAC drives play a crucial role in this by optimising system performance.
There is an increasing focus on designing compact and modular HVAC drives that can be easily integrated into various systems and spaces.
The integration of HVAC drives with building automation systems (BAS) is becoming common as it allows for centralised control of all building systems.
Improvements in semiconductor technology, such as the use of silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN), are making HVAC drives more efficient and reliable.
There is a rising trend towards designing compact and modular HVAC drives that can be easily integrated into various systems and spaces. In many urban areas and modern building designs, space is a premium commodity. Compact HVAC drives are designed to occupy less space, making them ideal for installations in confined areas like small mechanical rooms or within ceiling spaces.
Market players in HVAC drive market are implementing updates in HVAC drive design to make strides in technological advancements. Johnson Controls announced an upgradation to their YORK YVAA Variable Speed Drive Screw Chiller in April 2022, which is designed for mission-critical applications and features advanced technologies that enhance both full and part-load efficiency.
