Market Dynamics
Increase in commercial construction activities has led to a surge in demand for heating and cooling equipment in various industries, which is anticipated to boost the demand for HVAC actuators. For instance, the commercial construction industry in India is expected to witness growth by nearly 4.0% from 2016 to 2022. All such instances are anticipated to contribute toward the growth of the HVAC actuators market. Moreover, rise in population and per capita income is creating demand for appliances such as heaters and air conditioners is driving the demand for HVAC actuators for such equipment. In addition, urban population is growing rapidly. As per the estimates and forecasts of the WHO, the global urban population is expected to grow by approximately 1.84% every year until 2020, which is at the rate of around 1.63% per annum from 2020 to 2025, and around 1.44% per annum from 2025 to 2030.
Rapid penetration of HVAC system has been witnessed in building automation systems (BASs), which acts as one of the critical factors driving the overall HVAC actuators market growth. In addition, the adoption of BASs is increasing considerably, owing to advancements in wireless sensor network technology and wireless protocols. Moreover, rise in need for the deployment of BASs in office buildings and large shopping complexes to improve the productivity of management systems augments the growth of the market, globally.HVAC system in industries is one of the most complex systems.
The existing HVAC systems are incorporated with a wide range of equipment such as actuators and sensors that monitor and control temperature, airflow, and other parameters. These HVAC systems are sensitive to electrical issues, thermal sensation, and cooling sensation. Each facility project in which HVAC has been installed is distinctive and unique. Thus, upgradation of the existing HVAC systems is a complex process and requires a clearly defined plan, which hampers the HVAC actuators industry growth.
The demand for HVAC actuators decreased in 2020, owing to low demand from different regions due to lockdown imposed by the government of many countries. The COVID-19 pandemic has shutdown production of HVAC actuators for the end-user, mainly owing to prolonged lockdowns in major global countries. This has hampered the growth of the HVAC actuators market significantly during the pandemic. The major demand for HVAC actuators was previously noticed from giant manufacturing countries including China, U.S., Germany, Italy, and the UK which was badly affected by the spread of coronavirus, thereby halting demand for HVAC actuators. This is expected to lead to re-initiation of manufacturing industry at their full-scale capacities, which is likely to help the HVAC actuators market to recover by end of 2022.
Air conditioning is one of the major expenses for the residential and nonresidential building management. To control these expenses and ensure efficient functioning of HVAC, end users are turning to cloud computing in HVAC. The demand for cloud computing in HVAC is increasing significantly, owing to factors such as scalability, flexibility, and enhanced collaboration. This indirectly increases the demand for upgraded HVAC systems and drives the demand for HVAC actuators in the market. These electronics provide high efficiency to HVAC system.
Moreover, many companies are focusing on the development of cloud computing in HVAC to sustain their business and increase their customer base across the globe. Thus, all these factors collectively are anticipated to provide remunerative opportunities for the expansion of the global HVAC actuators market during the forecast period.
