Advanced HVAC Control Systems Market Research: 2032
The Global Advanced HVAC Control Systems Market Size was valued at $3.1 billion in 2022, and is projected to reach $6.8 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 8.3% from 2023 to 2032. Advanced HVAC control systems automatically adjust the operation of HVAC systems. Advanced controls are equipped with sensors that detect the environmental conditions and a microprocessor gives commands to the HVAC components based on predefined instructions or as directed by the inbuilt artificial intelligence (AI) in a few types of control systems.
Market Dynamics
By the end of the last century, the pace of global population growth has increased significantly, eventually driving the demand for energy. For example, from 1971 to 2019, a substantial increase in the world's total energy consumption has been witnessed, with fossil fuels contributing to over 80% of the total supply. Among the major electricity consumers, the building sector is responsible for about 55% of global electricity consumption. In addition, among the various components within buildings, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems emerge as major electricity consumers, utilizing approximately 40% of the total electricity. Furthermore, in the past few years, the trend of sustainable development has witnessed significant popularity among the masses, which in turn has propelled the demand for advanced HVAC control systems as these systems assist in saving substantially electric energy. Studies conducted independently suggest that these systems can lead to substantial electricity savings, ranging from 20% to 30%.
The primary reason for the high efficiency of advanced HVAC control systems lies in their automation capabilities. For example, these systems can dynamically adjust HVAC settings to the lowest power consumption or activate sleep mode when a room is unoccupied. In addition, advanced HVAC control systems can respond to environmental factors such as occupancy levels, humidity, and air quality, automatically adapting HVAC operation settings. This level of automation ensures optimal energy utilization, contributing to electricity savings. Such benefits of advanced HVAC control systems not only lead to substantial electricity savings but also contribute to a greener and more sustainable environment.
In addition, the market for advanced HVAC control systems is also driven by incrased adoption of building automation systems (BAS) across the world, especially in developing countries. For example, 60% of commercial buildings larger than 50,000 sq.ft have BAS to control HVAC systems as well as other necessary systems in a building. However, only 13% of buildings smaller than 50,000 sq.ft use BAS for HVAC control, indicating a high potential for the uptake of advanced HVAC control systems in the left-out buildings. Furthermore, there has been a significant rise in the adoption of BAS in office buildings and large shopping complexes, and other commercial buildings in developing countries. The rise in disposable income of a considerable population in developing nations is propelling the adoption of BAS in residential application, eventually having a positive impact on the advanced HVAC control systems market outlook.
However, the high upfront cost of advanced HVAC control systems discourages the building owners from opting these advanced solutions. Advanced HVAC control systems are commonly equipped with technologies such as IoT, AI, and other advanced features which are still not very common in various parts of the world. Thus, equipment with these technologies are expensive. For example, a programable thermostat costs $25 to $75; however, a smart thermostat costs between $100 and $200. Thus, such high costs are expected to hinder the advanced HVAC control systems market growth.
Moreover, technological advancements, including the integration of IoT and AI, have helped in making user-friendly methods for managing and controlling HVAC systems. Notably, smartphone apps make significant use of these technologies to offer convenient control. Apps like LG ThinQ App and airCloud Go, both from OEMs and third-party providers, are gaining traction in the market. In addition, the emergence of smart IoT devices such as Alexa and Google Home provides new ways of HVAC control. Such developments, which are simplifying HVAC control and making it accessible remotely, present growth opportunities for businesses in the advanced HVAC control systems market.
The advanced HVAC control systems market witnesses various obstructions in its regular operations due to the COVID-19 pandemic and inflation. Earlier, the global lockdowns resulted in reduced industrial activities, eventually leading to reduced demand for advanced HVAC control systems from construction and industrial sectors. However, COVID-19 has subsided, and the major manufacturers in 2023 are performing well. Contrarily, the rise in global inflation is a new major obstructing factor for the entire industry. The inflation, which is a direct result of the Ukraine-Russia war and few long-term impacts of the coronavirus pandemic, has introduced volatility in the prices of raw materials used for construction which is a major end-user sector of HVAC systems. In addition, inflation is expected to worsen in the coming years, as the possibility of the ending of the war between Ukraine and Russia is less. However, a peace agreement between Ukraine and Russia can be devised, with the continued talks between different countries, which is expected to end the war between them and reduce global inflation.
