Heat Exchanger Industry

The global heat exchangers market size was estimated at USD 18.19 billion in 2023 and is expected to expand at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.4% from 2024 to 2030.

Rising focus on efficient thermal management in various industries, including oil & gas, power generation, chemical & petrochemical, food & beverage, and HVAC & refrigeration, is expected to drive the demand for heat exchangers over the forecast period. Rising demand from chemical industry coupled with increasing technological advancements and a growing focus on improving efficiency standards is expected to drive heat exchangers market growth. Most processes in petrochemical facilities involve high pressure and temperature, thus, necessitating the optimization of heat transfer and enhancement of energy savings, which, in turn, is likely to boost the demand for energy-efficient heat exchangers.

U.S. dominated the North America heat exchanger market in 2023, owing to high electricity demand, industrialization, and investments in renewable power generation. Rising investments by oil & gas companies in exploration & production activities in the U.S. are expected to boost the demand for these products in oil & gas industry.

Significant power markets such as China, U.S., India, Russia, and Japan are restructuring their operating models to adopt the structure of renewable energy and efficient utilization of energy by installing heat exchangers and shifting from traditional energy use. This is expected to drive the demand for heat exchangers.
