Cooling Systems Market Report 2026

The cooling systems market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $158.14 billion in 2025 to $166.17 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.1%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to industrial equipment heat management, growth of computing hardware, automotive thermal needs, commercial building cooling demand, electronics miniaturization.

The cooling systems market size is expected to see steady growth in the next few years. It will grow to $200.13 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to data center expansion, electric vehicle thermal management, high performance computing growth, energy efficiency regulations, advanced cooling technology innovation. Major trends in the forecast period include rising adoption of liquid cooling technologies, growth of cooling solutions for data centers, increasing demand for energy efficient systems, integration of smart thermal management, expansion of hybrid cooling architectures.

The expansion of data centers is expected to drive the growth of the cooling systems market in the coming years. A data center is a facility that houses computer systems and related components such as servers and storage to store, manage, and process large volumes of digital information. The increasing number of data centers is primarily fueled by rapid growth in digital data consumption and rising demand for faster, more reliable data storage and processing infrastructure. Cooling systems are essential for maintaining optimal operating temperatures in these facilities, ensuring efficiency, preventing overheating, and reducing the risk of equipment failure. For example, in September 2024, the National Telecommunications and Information Administration, a U.S. government agency, reported that the United States had approximately 5,000 data centers, with demand projected to grow at around 9 percent annually until 2030. Therefore, the continued expansion of data centers is expected to propel the cooling systems market forward.

Leading companies in the cooling systems market are developing advanced technologies, such as specialized commercial vehicle cooling systems, to improve performance and minimize environmental impact. These systems are designed to regulate engine and cabin temperatures in commercial vehicles like trucks and buses, enhancing operational efficiency and safety. For instance, in September 2023, DENSO Corporation, a Japan-based automotive components manufacturer, launched Everycool, a cooling system tailored for trucks. This system increases cooling efficiency while reducing environmental footprint by directing cool air specifically toward the driver to enhance comfort. It also reduces power consumption by approximately 57 percent compared to traditional systems, making it suitable for use with standard vehicle batteries. The integrated design combines indoor and outdoor fans into one compact unit, which is 30 percent smaller and 63 percent lighter than conventional models. This compact form factor helps preserve cabin space and cargo capacity and allows installation across various commercial vehicle types without obstructing rear window visibility.

In November 2024, Flex Ltd., a U.S.-based electronics manufacturing services company, acquired JetCool Technologies for an undisclosed sum. The acquisition is intended to bolster Flex Ltd.’s capabilities in the data center and power solutions space by incorporating JetCool’s advanced liquid cooling technology. This move aims to support the development of scalable, energy-efficient solutions tailored for high-performance computing (HPC) and artificial intelligence (AI) workloads. JetCool Technologies Inc. is a U.S.-based firm specializing in high-performance liquid cooling systems designed for use in data centers and AI infrastructure.
