Demand from Commercial and Residential Sectors, Technological Advancements to Drive Market Growth
Demand for hot water from commercial and residential sectors is expected to boost market growth. Hot water is required for several applications including cleaning, washing, cooking, patient hygiene (in hospitals), etc. In recent years, the market has witnessed increased demand for more advanced and sophisticated water heating systems. Tankless water heaters are more popular in terms of residential applications, but witnessing increased interest in small commercial buildings, like diners and eating joints. However, such units are more common in larger central systems in bigger structures. Technologically advanced tankless water heaters are expected to drive the market during the period 2024-2032 due to advantages such as increased efficiency, extended life, reduced time to dispense hot water, less required space, and increased safety.
China, Mexico, Italy, Germany, and USA were the key exporters of electric instant, storage and immersion water heaters in 2019. Chief importers of electric instant, storage and immersion water heaters in 2019 were USA, France, Germany, United Kingdom, and Spain.
Air to Water (ATW) Heat Pumps a Significant Market in Europe
In Europe, air to water (ATW) heat pumps is a significant market. In France, sanitary hot water or cylinder-integrated ATW heat pumps are in considerable demand. According to analyst reports, 2017 witnessed decreased growth, but sales of hot water heat pumps rose in 2018 with an overall growth of over 13%. In the USA, sales of cylinder-integrated electric storage heat pump water heater (HPWH) units increased to nearly 70000 pieces yearly in 2017-2018, which accounted for over 1.9% of the overall yearly electric storage water heater sales. Air-to-water heat pumps have witnessed significant growth in China.
India, China, Japan, and South Korea Prominent Markets in Asia; Initiatives Such as Japan’s “Introduction Subsidy Scheme” May Help Boost Markets in Other Markets
India, China, Japan, and South Korea are the key markets in Asia. The Eco Cute hot water heat pump, which utilizes CO2 as refrigerant, has witnessed significant success in the previous decade. The considerable growth was seen as an outcome of the “Introduction Subsidy Scheme” implemented by the Japanese Government in 2002 to subsidize a portion of the cost to introduce heat pump water heaters. While the scheme is not currently in force, it is seen as a best-practice policy suitable to be followed by other national marketplaces. South Korea, although a relative newcomer to the market, is looking to grow in the heat pump market.
Air Source Heat Pump (ASHP) a Significant Water Heater Segment in China; Heat Pump Water Heaters (HPWHs) also Gaining Prominence
Heat pump water heaters do not directly generate heat, rather, utilize electricity to move heat between two points. Therefore, such heaters can be significantly more energy efficient as compared to standard electric resistance water heaters. While heat pump water heater systems might usually entail higher initial cost than standard storage water heaters, the higher acquisition and installation costs could be offset by lower operating costs.
In China, household device brands including Midea, Haier, A.O. Smith, etc. are prominent brands in the Air Source Heat Pump (ASHP) water heater segment. The segment is seen as one with significant growth potential. According to analyst reports, heat pumps (particularly ASHPs) are expected to grow in market size to over 15% by 2040. Heat Pump Water Heaters (HPWHs) have also gained prominence owing to their capacity to offer considerably more heat while using the same quantity of electricity as that consumed by standard electric storage water heaters. Several reputed water heating manufacturers have rolled out models, and by 2017-2018, HPWH consignments stood at over 69000 (average), with the projected market penetration of approximately over 1.9%.
Innovative, Energy-efficient and Environmentally Friendly Water Heating Systems Expected to Drive Growth
Companies like Bradford White strive to create innovative, sophisticated, high-performance and reliable products that offer increased energy-efficiency and are environmentally friendly. Such efforts indicate consumers’ preference for products that improve quality of life while saving energy and not damaging the environment. The company’s offerings include models AeroTherm® Heat Pump Water Heater, Infiniti® K Series tankless water heaters and eF Series® gas water heaters – which the company claims are designed to save energy and money.
Similarly, Daikin offers heat pumps delivering cost-effective heating solutions for residential and commercial settings. The company claims that connecting solar collectors to heat pump systems may further enhance efficiency and savings.
