Market Trends and Policy Landscape

1. Electrification of Industrial Heat

Direct electrification of industrial heat—especially via heat pump systems—is accelerating globally. Studies indicate that widespread adoption could reduce industrial greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 5% by 2030 and 16% by 2050 compared to current trajectories. Industrial heat pumps deliver two to four times more heat energy than the electrical energy they consume, making them a critical technology for sustainable manufacturing.

2. ColdClimate and WindResistant Designs

The global coldclimate airsource heat pump market is expected to grow from roughly US$685 million in 2024 to over US$764 million in 2025, with a projected CAGR of over 11% through 2034. Manufacturers are innovating to ensure performance in subzero conditions, developing units capable of reliable operation down to −35 °C and incorporating enhanced defrost cycles and variablespeed inverters. Windresistant designs are emerging as a response to efficiency losses during strong, cold winds.

3. Impact of Extreme Weather

Climate change is creating new operational challenges for heat pumps. Extreme cold and wind can reduce efficiency and extend defrost cycles. Nextgeneration systems aim to mitigate these losses with improved coil design, sensor networks, and automatic airflow control, ensuring reliable industrial performance even during severe winter conditions.

4. European Policy Momentum and the Clean Heat Manifesto

In May 2025, nearly 20 leading companies released the “Clean Heat Europe” manifesto, advocating for stable, supportive policy frameworks to accelerate industrial decarbonization. This aligns with the EU’s energy transition strategy, which targets 10 million new heat pump installations by 2027 and up to 60 million by 2030. These initiatives are supported by programs like the Heat Pump Accelerator Platform, which addresses workforce training and regulatory alignment to sustain deployment.

5. Market Dynamics and Mixed Signals

Despite policy support, European heat pump installations saw a 21–23% decline in 2024 compared to the previous year, returning to preUkraine war levels. Declines were notable in Germany and France, while the UK experienced a 63% increase in sales. This highlights the importance of stable subsidy schemes and cost competitiveness to maintain longterm growth in the sector.
