Overview of the global aftercooler market
The global aftercooler market research report identifies that the shift to energy-efficient compressors will be one of the major factors that will have a positive impact on the growth of the market. Climatic changes and rising global warming have led to the increase in the need to concentrate on energy efficiency with the reduction in emission levels by the different industries. The primary aim of raising energy efficiency is to lower the carbon emission levels and ensure lesser electricity consumption for the rise in adoption of new air compressors in end-user industries. Moreover, regional governments in Europe and North America have introduced many initiatives to ensure that the various equipment used in industries comply with corresponding regulations. These initiatives have resulted in the increase in the need for energy efficient air compressors which in turn will impact the cooler market share over the next few years. Technavio’s market research analysts predict that the aftercooler market will grow at a CAGR of close to 5% by 2021.
The introduction of next-generation air compressors is one of the key trends that will gain traction in the aftercooler market during the forecast period. Air compressor manufacturers are equipping their products with variable speed technology to tweak speeds. The incorporation of variable speed drives (VSD) controls the speed automatically based on the user requirement. Factors such as the constant and real-time operational capability of these VSD offers efficient performance and their use also assists in reducing electricity and fuel consumption giving rise to lesser emissions. Energy consumption levels in variable speed drives are around 35% lesser than fixed speed air compressors. For instance, Atlas Copco’s GA VSD+ launched in 2013 was a massive success. These advantages will drive the growth of the air compressor market.
