Field-Erected Cooling Tower Market

Field-Erected Cooling Tower Market by Type (Wet, Dry, and Hybrid), Design (Natural, Forced, and Induced), End-User (Power Generation, Petrochemical and Oil & Gas, Iron & Steel and Metallurgy, Paper Mills), and Region - Global Forecasts to 2022

Report Code: EP 4210 Feb, 2018, by marketsandmarkets.com

[130 Pages Report] MarketsandMarkets forecasts the field-erected cooling tower market to grow from USD 1.8 billion in 2017 to USD 2.2 billion by 2022, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 3.8% during the forecast period. Increasing demand from developing markets of Asia Pacific, growth in industrial activities worldwide, technological advancement in the field of field-erected cooling towers, and stringent environmental regulations are expected to drive the demand for field-erected cooling tower market globally. The objective of the report is to define, describe, and forecast the field-erected cooling tower market size based on type (wet, dry, and hybrid), design (natural, forced, and induced), end-user (power generation, petrochemical and oil & gas, iron & steel and metallurgy, paper mills, and others), and region.

Field-Erected Cooling Tower Market

The wet field-erected towers segment is expected to hold the largest share of the field erected cooling tower market, by type, during the forecast period.

The field-erected cooling tower market has been segmented, by type, into wet, dry, and hybrid. The wet field-erected cooling tower segment held the major market share, whereas the dry type segment is projected to witness the highest growth rate during the forecast period. This growth is due to water consumption efficiencies associated with dry type field-erected cooling towers. More industries are accepting this kind of design to align with environmental regulations within their respective countries.

The induced draft segment is the fastest growing market of the field erected cooling tower, by design, during the forecast period.

In terms of design, cooling towers by design are categorized based on the air circulation process.  There are three types of design available for a cooling tower, namely, natural draft, forced draft, and induced draft. An induced draft is more efficient compared to a forced draft cooling tower. These cooling towers are used in various end-use industries such as pharmaceutical, cement industries, power generation, mining, and iron & steel industries among others.

Field-Erected Cooling Tower Market

Asia-Pacific: Expected to be the leading market for field erected cooling tower during the forecast period.

China, India, and Japan are some of the key countries in the Asia-Pacific region, which accounted for majority of the field-erected cooling towers market, in 2017. Rising population, urbanization, and industrialization along with growing concerns related to infrastructure development in China and India are some of the factors that would drive the market in the region. Increasing energy demand and growing industrial activity in the region are some of the key parameters driving the market in Asia-Pacific.

Market Dynamics

Driver: Stringent environmental regulations

Process plants are under pressure to meet environmental targets. Government laws and regulations mandate the reduction of the volumes of water used for cooling and minimizing of thermal pollution by industries. For example, in cooling applications, key players help in minimizing the temperature difference between input and discharged water to meet regulations even during peak demand. Industries are supposed to provide reliable, environmentally friendly service as per government regulations.

The production of electricity, particularly by nuclear- and fossil fuel-based power plants, requires a lot of high-temperature and high-pressure steam to turn the turbine. The steam turbine rotates the electric generator’s rotor to produce electricity. The exhaust/extra steam after rotating the turbine is then cooled using either once-through or closed-loop field-erected cooling towers.
The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has proposed the replacement of existing legacy cooling systems with closed loop cooling systems at chemical industries and thermal power plants. The existing systems demand significant quantities of water; closed-loop cooling systems, which reduce water inflow by over 90.0%, are replacing these existing legacy cooling systems. Thus, increasing government regulations mandating the use of closed-loop systems for cooling processes are driving the demand for field-erected cooling towers globally.

Restraint: Rise in alternative energy programs

Renewable energy is expected to be the fastest-growing source of electricity in the world. In 2015, renewables contributed to 38% of the world’s primary energy growth and 7% of the world’s electricity, according to the BP Statistical Review of World Energy 2016. Over the recent years, solar and wind energy have gained more prominence. In 2015, global investments in solar energy saw a 12% increase from the previous year to USD 161 billion and investments in wind energy increased by 4% to reach USD 109 billion, as per the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) survey.

According to the EIA, renewable energy is projected to increase by 40% from 2012 to 2018. The BP Energy Outlook 2016 predicts that renewable energy sources would overtake natural gas generation and coal-based generation by 2035. As per the European Photovoltaic Industry Association, the total installed capacity of solar energy was 138 GW in 2013 and approximately 65 GW of capacity is expected to be installed over the next 5 years. Keeping up with this growth in renewable energy sources would prove to be a significant restraint for the existing players in the field-erected cooling tower market. Moreover, renewable energy deployment in off-grid systems is growing steadily in both developed and developing countries. Favorable government policies, declining costs, and the increasing efficiency of solar photovoltaic are also major drivers for renewable energy generation. Thus, the growth in renewable energy reduces the scope for the growth of the field-erected cooling tower market in the long term.

Opportunity: Increasing energy generation from nuclear power

Cooling towers are an essential component of a nuclear reactor; the performance of a cooling tower has significant impact on the overall efficiency and power output of a nuclear power plant. Cooling towers for nuclear power plants are primarily hybrid or wet type as they provide better efficiency. Cooling towers are used in nuclear power plants that function on high pressure and temperature applications. These are used by different nuclear processes such as closed-loop system cooling, central cooling, and moisture separator reheating.

About 11.0% of the world’s electricity is produced from nuclear power and its capacity worldwide is rising gradually; significant capacity is being further created by plant upgradation. There are about 350 nuclear power reactors operating, with over 58 reactors under construction worldwide. The widespread use of field-erected cooling towers in nuclear reactors, upgradation of existing nuclear plants, and proposed nuclear power plant projects are expected to drive the market during the forecast period. The increasing energy generation from nuclear power could also provide ample growth opportunities for the players in the field-erected cooling tower market.

Challenge: Need for large quantities of water

Field-erected cooling towers require large amounts of water for cooling and its availability is a major concern. Thermal power plants, for instance, consume large quantities of water for cooling and require a constant water source for the cooling requirements. A majority of the industries use once-through cooling systems in which water once used for cooling is discharged and is discarded. Furthermore, to initiate the cooling cycle, new water is used and again discharged. These cooling systems result in excessive water loss in industries such as oil & gas, construction, and chemicals.
