Electric Heating Equipment Market Outlook - 2027

Electric heating equipment refers to an industrial equipment, which is used for heating purposes by converting electrical energy into heat energy. It is majorly used to maintain ambient temperature at desired level. Electrical resistor is the core element due to which heating effect occurs in an electric heating equipment. This equipment functions on the principle of the “Joule Effect.” This principle states that the conversion of electric energy to heat energy occurs when electric current is passed through an electrical resistor. Thus, electric heating is considered as the most efficient form of heating, as all the incoming electric energy is transformed to heat energy. Heating element in a modern electric heating equipment, which is made of nichrome wire insulated by ceramic. 

Industrial applications of electric heating equipment include welding, melting, baking, and enameling. In addition, electric heating equipment are used for domestic purposes such as cooking, water heating, room heating, and ironing of cloths. They can be installed anywhere, and do not face the constraint of space. Moreover, they provideuniform distribution of heat energy. Thus, thesee quipment find extensive applications in food processing and pharmaceutical industry, as precision control temperature can be accurately applied at critical points in production line.

Surge in demand for electrical heating equipment is a major factor contributing toward the growth of the global market. This is attributed to various advantages associated with electric heating equipment, such as temperature-controlled process andclean heating. In addition, electric heating equipment produces heat without the need of firing due to which it is free from dust & flue gases. In addition, installation, running, and equipment cost iseconomical, which is akey growth driver ofthe market. Furthermore, electric heating equipment is easy to operate, and has a noise-free operation. These features have compelled manufacturers to produce more electric heating equipment, which is anticipated to boost their demand, globally. Moreover, increase in industrialization in the developing countries such as India, Brazil, Mexico, and Malaysia has significantly propelled the need for electrical heating equipment. In addition, implementation of stringent government norms for sustainable & energy-efficient buildings has positively affected the demand for electrical heating equipment. Shift in consumer preference from conventional to electric heating equipment has further driven the growth of electric heating equipment market, owing to the fact that they are more energy-efficient than conventional thermal equipment. 

However, fluctuation in prices of raw materials & spare parts used for manufacturing electrical heating equipment coupled with high cost of research & development is expected to hinder the growth in demand for electrical heating equipment during the forecast period. On the contrary, technological concepts such as distributed smart controls for heating and cooling to simplify HVAC configuration are anticipated to create lucrative opportunity for the expansion of the global market. Sensor-based electric heating equipment which are increasingly being used in IoT-enabled smart homes is expected to be opportunistic for the market. Heating plays an important role in railway industry for providing comfort, safety, and reliability in railway vehicles. Therefore growth in the railway industry is expected to increase the demand for electric heating equipment. This presents a lucrative opportunity for the growth of electric heating equipment market.

Research & development in photovoltaic cells and solar cells, which have high potential in heating applications for agriculture and food processing industry has created an opportunity for new designs and developments in electric heating equipment. This, in turn, is expected to have a positive impact on the market growth.
