Smart, energy-efficient HVAC systems use real-time data to cut operating costs, meet regulations, and capitalize on rising cooling and heat-pump demand

Dublin, Oct. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- "Europe Commercial HVAC Market Size and Forecast (2021 - 2031), Regional Share, Trend, and Growth Opportunity Analysis" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The Europe Commercial HVAC Market is projected to increase from US$ 17,901.2 million in 2024 to US$ 28,708 million by 2031, registering a CAGR of 7.1% from 2025 to 2031. Market growth is being supported by expanding commercial infrastructure, rising temperatures, digital transformation, and stringent government regulations focused on energy efficiency and carbon reduction.

Germany, the UK, and France are advancing policies that encourage energy-efficient HVAC systems and environmentally friendly refrigerants. These measures are expected to strengthen demand for advanced heating, cooling, and ventilation solutions across office buildings, manufacturing facilities, educational campuses, and other commercial properties. Digitalization is also accelerating the adoption of smart HVAC technologies and innovative distribution platforms that use real-time data to optimize performance, reduce energy costs, and improve indoor comfort.

Heat pump adoption remains an important market driver. According to the European Heat Pump Association, European heat pump sales increased by 38% in 2022, exceeding the 34% growth recorded in 2021. By the end of 2022, approximately 20 million connected heating heat pumps and hot water heat pumps were operating across Europe, serving around 16% of residential and commercial buildings.

Ongoing construction activity is creating additional opportunities for commercial HVAC manufacturers and service providers. Germany's Schoenebeck Engineering and Offsite Manufacturing Facility began construction in Q3 2024 and is scheduled for completion in Q4 2026. Sweden's Arctic Center of Energy Campus, including a seven-story competence center, commenced construction in Q3 2024 and is expected to be completed in Q2 2027. Projects of this scale are increasing demand for efficient new HVAC installations.

The Europe Commercial HVAC Market is segmented by equipment type into cooling, heating, and ventilation equipment. Cooling equipment held the largest market share in 2024, led by unitary air conditioners. Within heating equipment, boilers accounted for the leading share, followed by heat pumps, furnaces, and space heaters. Ventilation equipment includes air handling units (AHUs), ventilation fans, air filters, and purifiers, with AHUs holding the largest share. New installations dominated the implementation segment in 2024, while office buildings represented the largest application category.

Climate conditions are expected to reinforce long-term demand for commercial cooling systems. The Copernicus Climate Change Service identified 2024 as the warmest year on record, with the global average temperature reaching 15.10C. Higher temperatures, particularly in urban areas affected by intensified heat levels, are encouraging businesses and property managers to invest in reliable, energy-efficient HVAC solutions that support comfort, regulatory compliance, and sustainability objectives.

The United Kingdom held the largest country-level market share in 2024. Growing cooling requirements could increase UK power consumption by as much as 15% during summer months, creating demand for technologies that lower energy use. Emerging heat pump solutions using solid materials instead of traditional refrigerants may help address this challenge. The UK government's Target to reduce carbon emissions by 78% by 2035 is also expected to support investment in high-efficiency commercial HVAC systems.

Leading participants in the Europe Commercial HVAC Market include Schneider Electric SE, Honeywell , Mitsubishi Electric Corp, LG Electronics Inc, Daikin Industries Ltd, Carrier Global Corp, Danfoss AS, Lennox International Inc, Trane Technologies Plc, Samsung Electronics Co Ltd, Johnson Controls International Plc, and Aaon Inc . These companies are strengthening their competitive positions through geographic expansion, product innovation, mergers and acquisitions, and the development of smart, sustainable HVAC technologies for Europe's evolving commercial building sector.
