Commercial Electric Boiler Global Market Report 2025

The commercial electric boiler market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.79 billion in 2024 to $1.97 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to a growing preference for low-maintenance and reliable heating systems, rising industrialization in emerging markets, increasing fuel prices and supply uncertainties, greater adoption of smart and automated systems, and a heightened focus on reducing carbon footprints.

The commercial electric boiler market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.86 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8%. The growth expected in the forecast period is driven by the increased adoption of smart monitoring and control technologies, rising investments in electric boiler research and development, growing awareness of indoor air quality and safety standards, increased demand for modular and scalable heating solutions, and a stronger emphasis on lowering operational costs in commercial buildings. Key trends in the forecast period include advancements in smart monitoring and diagnostics, innovations in modular boiler systems, the use of advanced materials for improved durability, integration with building management systems, and improvements in electrode boiler efficiency.

The rising demand for energy-efficient heating solutions is expected to drive growth in the commercial electric boiler market going forward. Energy-efficient heating solutions are technologies and systems designed to use less energy while maintaining the same level of heating comfort, thereby reducing energy consumption, lowering costs, and minimizing environmental impact. This increase is driven by growing regulatory pressure to cut carbon emissions. Commercial electric boilers support energy-efficient heating by providing clean, consistent heat with minimal energy loss, making them well-suited for modern commercial spaces. They reduce dependence on fossil fuels by using electricity, which aids sustainability goals and improves operational efficiency. For example, in September 2024, ElectricHomes, a UK-based electric heating provider, reported that the UK installed 36,799 air source heat pumps and 2,469 ground or water source heat pumps, bringing the total number of MCS-certified installations to 229,618 in 2023 - a 20% increase compared to 2022. Thus, the growing demand for energy-efficient heating solutions is propelling the commercial electric boiler market.

Leading companies in the commercial electric boiler market are focusing on advanced products such as customizable cascade electric heaters to enhance energy efficiency, improve system scalability, and address diverse heating needs across applications. Customizable cascade electric heaters involve connecting multiple electric heating units (boilers) configured to operate sequentially based on demand. For example, in May 2024, Lochinvar, a US-based water heating solutions company, introduced the LECTRUS light commercial electric boiler, offering versatile, sustainable heating with advanced features like a smart system liquid crystal display (LCD) control platform, supporting electrification and decarbonization in various commercial settings.

In January 2024, Laars Heating Systems, a US-based boiler manufacturer, acquired Electro Industries Inc. for an undisclosed sum. Through this acquisition, Laars Heating Systems aims to expand its presence in the electric heating market, broaden its product range to meet rising electrification demands, and strengthen its U.S. manufacturing capabilities by integrating Electro Industries’ expertise in electric boilers and heat pump technology. Electro Industries Inc. is a US-based company specializing in electric boiler manufacturing.

A commercial electric boiler is a heating system that utilizes electricity to produce steam or hot water for commercial buildings and industrial processes. It efficiently converts electrical energy into heat, offering a clean and reliable source of thermal energy. Its primary function is to provide consistent heating or steam for space heating, hot water, or process applications across various commercial and industrial environments.

The primary categories of commercial electric boilers include resistive element boilers, electrode boilers, and heat pump boilers. Resistive element boilers operate by using electric heating elements, similar to large electric heaters, to heat water or generate steam. They come in different capacities, such as up to 1 kilowatt (kW), 10-50 kilowatts (kW), 50-100 kilowatts (kW), and over 100 kilowatts (kW), and are sold through both direct and indirect sales channels. These boilers find widespread use in sectors like healthcare, education, commercial buildings, industrial facilities, and more.
