Increased number of power generation plants across the globe is expected to drive the market growth for cooling towers. A cooling tower is a heat exchanger device that allows water and air to come into direct contact with each other in order to reduce the water temperature. It is mainly used in the manufacturing and power generation industries for keeping the environment cool. Cooling towers are relatively inexpensive and helps in removing low-grade heat from cooling water.

Rapid urbanization along with rising technological advancement in cooling towers are some of the major factors expected to drive the market growth during the forecast period. Increasing demand for cooling towers in construction, air conditioning, manufacturing, and power generation industries are driving the market growth. Factors such as low cost of a cooling tower, temperature maintenance, rising industrialization, and high efficiency are also anticipated to drive the growth for cooling towers. Cooling towers helps to prevent the overheating of other machines and reduce the company's overall expenses.

The global cooling towers market is valued at USD 2.87 billion in 2020 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 4.55% during the forecast period. According to the new market research report published by Global Market Estimates, the global cooling towers market, is segmented into type, construction material, and application. On the basis of type, the market is segmented into the evaporative cooling tower, dry cooling tower, and hybrid cooling tower. Evaporative cooling tower segment is estimated to grow at the highest CAGR% during the forecast period. Lower maintenance cost, reduced noise pollution, high performance, and energy-efficient are some of the prominent factors driving the demand for evaporative cooling towers. Hybrid cooling tower market is expected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period. Dry cooling tower segment is also estimated to grow in the near future because of low investment requirements and high life span capacity.

Based on construction material, the global cooling towers market is segmented into concrete, steel, and FRP (Fiber-Reinforced Plastic) among others. FPR becomes the most common structural material for small cooling towers and its segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR% during the forecast period. Other factors such as high loading capacity, high structural performance, and architectural flexibility simulate the growth of the concrete cooling tower segment followed by a steel segment in upcoming years.
