Market Trends of Commercial Boilers Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the Commercial Boilers Market according to our research experts:
Healthcare is Expected to Hold a Significant Market Share
- The healthcare industry uses boilers for cleaning, sterilizing, and space heating. Upgrading healthcare infrastructure is the primary priority among policymakers worldwide, continuously driving new investment in the healthcare sector.
- The exponential surge in the hospitalization of individuals and increase in national health expenditure owing to the pandemic has further bolstered investment in the healthcare sector, which will drive the studied segment for the market. For instance, according to CMS, the U.S. national health expenditure forecast as a percentage of GDP in 2021 was 18.2%, which will increase in 2028 to 19.7%.
- Moreover, government policies toward replacing conventional heating systems with advanced water heating systems coupled with the development of medical facilities will sway the demand for commercial boilers.
- Further, the growing requirements for energy-efficient heating solutions in line with the rising shift toward the acceptance of innovative sustainable heating systems will boost the industry revenue in the healthcare sector. Increasing deployments across the healthcare sector and growing replacement of the existing systems to cater to the stringent building standards will foster the industry value.
- In August 2022, ELCO announced an exhibit at Healthcare Estates that will provide heating and domestic hot water along with the inclusion of renewables, presenting some unique challenges to healthcare facilities. These initiatives and developments by the vendors in the market will drive the studied segment of the market over the coming years.
North America to Hold Significant Market Share
- The market in the region is witnessing a shift towards replacing or upgrading the existing heating systems and improving the operational ability of boilers. The high operating and maintenance cost, rising fuel prices, and stringent government regulations have set the tone for replacing the existing heating system with the energy-efficient heating system in the region.
- Increasing the focus of government bodies on reducing carbon emissions to the environment and implementing green building codes in the region augmented the demand for these boilers. High energy efficiency, minimal carbon emission, and low heating cost are critical factors surging market demand. The need for clean fuel heating systems and increasing investment in the domestic lodging sector are expected to support the market growth.
- Further, the market players are also investing in advancing boilers with the latest technologies and upgrades. In June 2021, Lochinvar, a manufacturer of high-efficiency water heaters, announced the CREST condensing boiler with Hellcat Combustion Technology, featuring Real-time O2 trim. These boilers can be used in large commercial applications. The Hellcat Combustion Technology helps decrease monitoring and maintenance and extends the boiler's life.
- The regional market is also witnessing significant adoption of business augmenting strategies which bodes well for the market. For instance, in January 2021, Jericho Oil Corporation announced its agreement to acquire all the assets of Hydrogen Technologies Inc. After the acquisition, the company introduced a re-branded website and Corporate Presentation outlining HTI's patented and novel high-temperature cleanH2steam Dynamic Combustion Chamber boiler that enables zero-emissions hydrogen to generate heat hot-water, high-temperature steam, and Combined Heat & Power (CHP) through a closed-loop process.
