Transcritical CO2 Systems Market Report

Market Insights

"The global transcritical CO2 systems market is likely to rebound at a promising CAGR of 16.9% in the long run to reach US$ 110.43 billion in 2028."

The transcritical CO2 system has a lower critical temperature than conventional refrigerants and is not poisonous, flammable, or chlorinated. These systems have a negligible potential for ozone depletion, negligible global warming, and low leak rates. Transcritical CO2 is in high demand due to its energy efficiency and cost advantages over fluorocarbon refrigerants, which will fuel market expansion throughout the forecast period.

The main reasons driving this market are the implementation of strict environmental regulations regarding the rising levels of greenhouse gases, chlorofluorocarbons, and global warming. Additionally, the demand for transcritical CO2 is fueled by the low operating costs of transcritical CO2 systems as well as an increase in demand for refrigeration and air conditioning applications.

Since conventional refrigerators consume 50% of the total energy used in supermarkets, the demand for transcritical CO2 is rising as a result of the shops' ability to cut both energy consumption and refrigerant device protection fees. The need for ice transcritical CO2 in ice skating rinks has also increased. The market is anticipated to have profitable growth over the forecast period as a result of these expanding applications.

Segment Analysis

Function Trends

"The refrigeration segment accounted for the largest market share."

Based on the function type, the transcritical CO2 systems market is segmented into Refrigeration, Heating, and Air Conditioning. Refrigeration is expected to remain the largest and fastest-growing function type in the market during the forecast period. Due to the EU F-gas regulation's effects on HFC prices and market availability in Europe as well as the global phase-down of HFCs with the Kigali Amendment taking effect in 2019, the refrigeration segment had the highest revenue share with 67.3% in 2019. Over the projected period, increased demand from supermarkets and food merchants for HFC-free technology is anticipated to propel segment expansion.

The demand for natural refrigerants used in heating processes has increased as a result of rising environmental awareness and more severe construction rules and regulations. From 2020 to 2027, the heating market is anticipated to grow at the quickest CAGR of 19.3% due to the strong development of new CO2 technology in heat pump application segments and the trend towards sanitary hot water heat. owing to the increasing demand for electric vehicles across regions coupled with an expected recovery in the production of ICE vehicles. In addition to that, increasing investments by the premium and luxury car manufacturers to manufacture new products with enhanced features, and growing demand for passenger cars in developing economies are further expected to drive the market growth during the forecast period. 

Application Trends

"The retail segment accounted for the largest market share."

Based on the application type, the market is segmented into retail and heat pumps. Retail is expected to remain the dominant as well as the fastest-growing application in the market during the forecast period. Because of the higher GWP of transcritical CO2 systems, which are replacing HFC-134a systems in Europe and Japan, the retail application category had the biggest share in 2019 (55.8%). Additionally, the growing trend of green consumption has driven supermarkets to deliberately apply environmental best practices in order to improve their reputation as environmentally friendly businesses.

Regional Insights

"North America accounted for the largest market share."

In terms of regions, North America is expected to remain the largest market for transcritical CO2 systems during the forecast period. The U.S. accounted for a significant share of the North American market in 2019 and is expected to witness exponential growth over the forecast period on account of the rising focus on the environmental impacts from the leakage of refrigerants, especially HFCs. The EPA estimates that the average U.S. supermarket is responsible for the leakage of 875 pounds of commercial refrigerant annually. As a result, end-users are actively working towards reducing their carbon footprint, which has prompted recent interest in natural refrigerants.
