The U.S. geothermal heat pump market size is expected to reach USD 3.54 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 11.1% from 2023 to 2030. The market is projected to observe substantial growth over the estimated period owing to the increasing reliance on gas in residential, commercial, and industrial applications. Owing to a surge in the implementation of various energy efficiency standards, the presence of different government incentives and tax credits, and a rise in awareness among homeowners about the benefits of geothermal heat pumps is expected to create demand for the product in the U.S.
The closed loop was the dominant segment in 2022 and is expected to maintain its position over the forecast period. A closed-loop geothermal heat pump has a continuous loop of underground piping to circulate a heat transfer fluid, such as water or a mixture of water and antifreeze. This loop is buried in the ground and can be installed horizontally or vertically, depending on the site conditions wherein it is to be used.
Geothermal heat pumps provide significant energy savings and can be installed in a wide range of commercial facilities, including office buildings, medical facilities, schools, courthouses, and training facilities. Increasing usage of large geothermal heat pumps in commercial buildings for space cooling or heating is expected to be one of the major factors influencing the growth of the market.
Moreover, the adoption of geothermal heat pumps in industrial applications is rising in the country owing to potential energy savings, cost reduction, and environmental benefits offered by them. These pumps are used in process heating and cooling, food processing, and manufacturing industrial applications. Geothermal heat pumps are also used for heating and cooling industrial buildings and process equipment. They are also employed to preheat or precool process fluids, thereby reducing energy consumption and costs.
