COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the global demand and supply chain. The imposition of complete or partial lockdown across various developing nations in the world, especially China has negatively impacted the growth of various consumer electronics. It is due to the fact that China is among the biggest consumers and producers of air conditioner systems, and it also exports a broad range of ACs to numerous nations.

Further, the reduced consumer spending on various luxurious products due to the pandemic would also hamper the growth of the air conditioning systems market. Although, it is estimated that the market would get back to normal in the coming years, which would contribute to the stable growth of the market due to the changing climate conditions and growing commercial construction activities. In addition, the shifting inclination of the consumers toward comfort and convenience is anticipated to surge the demand for the air conditioners systems market during the forecast period.

Market Growth Factors:

Changing climatic conditions

The constantly changing environmental conditions due to various human activities like pollutions is one of the major reasons contributing to the rising demand for air conditioning systems. It is because of the greenhouse effects that increase the overall temperature of the earth and thus, people demand ACs to cope up with the rising temperature.

The increasing air pollution due to the emission of harmful gases from manufacturing units, factories, and vehicles has increased the temperature of the earth, and hence, several regions face extreme weather conditions. Such changes in the climatic conditions would accelerate the growth of the air conditioning systems market over the forecast period.

Introduction of various advanced technologies in the air conditioning systems market

Several market players are increasingly investing in upgrading the technologies of their products to fulfill the emerging needs of the customers. The increasing prices of electricity in various nations are motivating consumers to opt for appliances that reduce their electricity bills and save energy.

On the other hand, the reducing level of fuel and energy is encouraging consumers to go with energy-efficient and energy-saving appliances, which would augment the demand for air conditioning systems across the world.

Market Restraining Factor:

High cost of the AC systems

The prices of air conditioning systems are quite high than other electronic items, which restrict many consumers to opt for these AC systems, thereby hindering the growth of the air conditioning systems market.

Moreover, the high technical support and advanced technologies used in the manufacturing of these appliances would lead to the high cost of AC systems, which may impede market growth. Along with that, factor like fluctuating prices of AC systems is also estimated to hamper the growth of the air conditioning systems market during the forecast period.

Air Conditioning Systems Market Share and Industry Analysis Report 2020

Type Outlook

On the basis of type, the air conditioning systems market is classified into Unitary, Rooftop, and PTAC. Among these, the Unitary AC segment garnered the highest revenue share in the market in 2020 and is estimated to exhibit the highest growth rate during the forecast period. These unitary air conditioners are majorly utilized in households.

Technology Outlook

Based on technology, the air conditioning systems market is bifurcated into inverter and non-inverter.
