Heat Transfer Fluid Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges

Based on our research output, there has been a neutral impact on the market growth during and post COVID-19 era. The developing chemical industry in china and india is notably driving the heat transfer fluid market growth, although factors such as fluctuating crude oil prices may impede market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the heat transfer fluid industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.

Key Heat Transfer Fluid Market Driver

Developing the chemical industry in China and India is one of the key factors driving the growth of the global heat transfer fluid market. The chemical industry contributes significantly to the industrial and economic growth of a nation. As this industry has several forward and backward links, it is called the backbone of the manufacturing and agricultural development of the country and provides building blocks to many downstream industries. This industry is crucial for other manufacturing sectors such as paper, textiles, leather, and paints. High domestic consumption is a key driver of the chemical industry in India. Though China’s economic growth has decelerated, the country continues to be a key market for all the leading global chemical suppliers. By 2025, the country is anticipated to be a key importer of commodity chemicals. However, global companies in the country will produce products that will be crucial for the economic growth of the country. The growth of the chemical industry in India and China is anticipated to drive the demand for heat transfer fluids during the forecast period.

Key Heat Transfer Fluid Market Trend

Technological advances in heat transfer fluids product portfolio will fuel the global heat transfer fluid market growth. Commercial concentrated solar power (CSP) plants are still largely based on mineral oil parabolic trough technology (developed approximately 30 years ago) and molten salt and direct steam generation towers. The inability to store energy negates the benefits of solar thermal power. New developments in heat transfer media (HTM) that help attain high temperatures and enable easy storage are essential to unleash the true potential of CSP systems.  Attaining high temperatures is crucial for cost reductions as they can increase power conversion efficiencies and enhance storage densities. These factors decrease the cost of storage units and the overall cost of the collector field. Enhancement in heat transfer fluids (HTFs) and storage solutions reduce the Levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) by 2.4% in the central receiver and 5.7% in parabolic troughs CSP plants. Moreover, advances in receivers that enhance the efficiency of solar power plants require significant investments. The development of new molten salts that have low melting temperatures and resist high temperatures are likely to considerably improve the performance of the existing receivers.

Key Heat Transfer Fluid Market Challenge

Fluctuating crude oil prices are major challenges for the global heat transfer fluid market growth. Fluctuations in the prices of crude oil and natural gas have a corresponding effect on the profit margins of oil and gas producing companies. Hence, these companies adopt various cost-cutting measures. Moreover, the prices of diversified chemicals are directly dependent on their manufacturing costs. Fluctuations in the prices of crude oil and natural gas have a corresponding effect on the manufacturing cost of crude products, which significantly affects the prices of chemicals and compels market suppliers to adopt various cost-cutting measures. Thus, the price volatility of petroleum-based raw materials is hindering the growth of the global diversified chemicals industry. Such strong fluctuations in crude oil and natural gas prices are caused by a systematic demand-supply imbalance in the global crude oil and natural gas market. Moreover, fluctuating oil prices have made advanced drilling activities, such as offshore exploration and unconventional resources development, economically challenging in regions such as Europe and North America. Several offshore drilling companies minimize cost by reducing the number of operations during a dip in crude oil prices, which adversely affects the vendors of heat transfer fluids.

COVID Impact and Recovery Analysis

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 had a severe impact on the regional heat transfer fluid market. China, India, and Japan were severely hit by the pandemic. Due to this pandemic, several countries across APAC, including India, China, Japan, and Australia, implemented a lockdown to limit the spread of COVID-19. International as well as domestic transportation and industrial production activities were halted, which disrupted the supply chain for various industries, including chemical, automotive, food and beverage, and plastics.
