by Geothermal heat pumps or geoexchange systems are considered a very sustainable and renewable energy technology for heating and cooling of residential and commercial buildings. They utilize stable underground temperatures between 50-60 degrees F to extract heat and transfer it indoors during winter months and reverse the cycle during summer. This results in considerable energy savings of around 40-60% compared to traditional air source heat pumps and fossil fuel furnaces. Geothermal heat pumps also provide very consistent indoor temperatures and dehumidified air along with needing less maintenance than other HVAC systems. Their operation is very silent and odorless without any emissions.
The global Geothermal Heat Pumps Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 11.20 Bn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 7.7% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market key trends:
One of the major trends in the geothermal heat pumps market is the growing preference for renewable and eco-friendly heating and cooling technologies among homeowners and commercial building owners to reduce carbon footprint. Geothermal systems offer significant energy cost savings over the lifetime without relying on fossil fuels. Factors like rising environmental awareness, government incentives and rebates are supporting the adoption rates. Growing construction of green buildings is another key driver as geothermal heat pumps allow new projects to meet sustainable design standards. Technological advancements are also making systems more efficient and cost-effective to install which is increasing their appeal in both residential retrofits and new constructions.
