Indian Data Center Cooling Industry – 2020 – 25. The Global data center cooling market size is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 3% during the period 2019–2025.
The global data center cooling market size is dominated by the US. The US is one of the largest markets for data centers with more than 135 facilities that were opened or under construction in 2019, expected to be operational by June 2020 but went through a continuous delay due to the Pandemic. The investment in the data center cooling segment accounts for 15–20% of the overall investment. Cooling systems and IT infrastructures are the predominant consumers of power in data centers.
The spread of COVID-19 has affected major data centre operations in Europe, Asia, and North America partially in the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America. Several facilities are affected due to the stoppage of construction and supply chain related challenges. Around 60 projects were scheduled to open by Q1 2020, and the remaining 40 projects were expected to be operational by Q2 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic is likely to affect a minimum of half of these projects during this period.
Indian Data centre cooling market 2020-2024
The data centre cooling market in India is poised to grow by $566.98 million during 2020-2024, progressing at a CAGR of 20% during the forecast period.
The market is driven by the increasing number of data centres in India and the rising use of modular or containerised data centres. In addition, increasing number of data centres in India is anticipated to boost the growth of the market as well.
The data centres cooling market in India includes technique segment, architecture system, and cooling system.
The following factors are expected to contribute to the growth of Indian data center cooling market:
- Digital India Program of Government of India
- Data Protection Bill and Data localisation Law Proposed by Government of India.
- Increased Adoption of Automation and Monitoring Solutions
- High Demand for Edge Data Centres
DATA CENTER COOLING MARKET SEGMENTATION
The application of cooling systems depends on IT loads, system capacities, expenditure, and future requirements. The investment is expected to be about 15–20%, depending on the facility design and IT infrastructure. Data center operators are looking for efficient solutions to bring down CAPEX and OPEX, reduce space, and decrease the power consumption of cooling units.
The market for CRAC & CRAH units will continue to grow among data centers that use DX or chilled-water solutions. The development of hyperscale and large data centers is likely to adopt 2N CRAC or CRAH units. CRAC and CRAH units will continue to be the largest revenue contributor in the market.
The use of chilled water systems is highly prevalent in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Africa and parts of APAC. The operators in the US, Europe, Nordic, China, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and Japan are mainly using hybrid systems with minimal compressor support during peak summers and free data center cooling solutions without the need for a compressor. Innovations in the free cooling space will continue to grow in the market.
Across the world, there are over 350 facilities in the Tier III category. This trend is likely to continue, with several operators expected to move to the Tier IV category based on the growth in the rack power density and critical applications. The data center market in India 2019 witnessed continuous investment in cloud adoption and big data analytics.
Most new facilities are designed to be of Tier III standards with a minimum of N+1 redundancy. The facilities can also be reconfigured with up to 2N+1 redundancy with the incorporation of flexible designs. Tier IV data centers are developed as modular facilities. They generate more revenue for the market, with focused investment on highly efficient cooling systems. Increased investments from hyperscale data center service providers are expected to be increasing demand for data center Tier IV.
