Heat Pumps Market to grow with a year-on-year growth of 3.6% in 2022 reaching a value of about US$ 33,156 Mn by 2022 end.

Some of the factors that drive the growth of the heat pump market include replacement of conventional fuel-based heating method by heat pump technology and significant adoption of heat pump technology in residential applications as a cost-effective heating method. In heat pumps, conventional fuel-based heating systems are replaced with technologies that incorporate renewable or green energy sources for functioning.

Besides this, heat pump technology contributed substantially to the reduction of CO2emission and also complies with regulatory norms. According to FMI’s recent study, the heat pumps market was valued at around US$ 32 Bn in 2021 and is estimated to expand at a CAGR of 5.4% over the forecast period of 2022–2030, with a limited impact of the current pandemic situation on long-term growth forecasts.

Amidst the health crisis, cooling as well as heating systems are critical to fulfil the immediate needs of consumers, such as providing thermal comfort in hospitals and homes, preserving food and medicines, and keeping data centers running. In line with this, refrigeration and heat pumps are essential for consumers.

As the world attempts to fight the COVID-19 pandemic, it has led to delayed production across several heat pump production facilities in major coronavirus hit countries such as the US, China, and Germany, This is expected to dampen heat pump sales by around US$ 1 Bn in 2022.

Moreover, the COVID-19 pandemic will significantly impact consumer behavior in the short term, with domestic shipments from China for air source heat pumps (ASHPs) registering drop of over one-third in January 2022.

The heat pumps market will witness v-shaped recovery growth, owing to rising inclination towards innovative construction solutions, especially in countries such as India, China, and Mexico.
