Residential Air to Water Heat Pump Industry Overview
The Residential Air to Water Heat Pump Market is moderately competitive and consists of several major players. The competitive rivalry in the residential air-to-water heat pump market is moderately high due to the presence of some major players, such as Daikin Industries Ltd, Mitsubishi Electric Europe BV, Ariston Thermo SpA, Ferroli S.p.A, and Baxi Heating UK Ltd, among others. Their strength to continually innovate their offerings has given them a competitive advantage over other players in the market. These players have increased their market footprint through mergers and acquisitions and research and development activities.
In September 2022, Panasonic stated that it plans to invest approximately EUR 145.0 million (around USD 144.8 million) to increase heat pump production at its Czech Republic factory to 500,000 units by the end of March 2026. In 2018, Panasonic began production of air-to-water indoor units with a single line at its TV factory in Plzen. Panasonic's decision to discontinue TV production at the plant last year due to the falling demand created extra capacity for heat pump production. In September 2021, under the production-linked incentive (PLI) plan for white goods, Daikin, a Japanese air conditioning company, purchased land for a new factory. Daikin India, the multinational's India unit, completed the acquisition deal for a 75-acre site in Sri City (Andhra Pradesh) to build a huge air-conditioning (AC) manufacturing plant in phases. According to internal estimations, Daikin will have to invest INR 1,000 crore in the first phase.
