Press Release

Energy Recovery Technologies Market is Expected to grow at a robust CAGR of 5.25% through 2030F

Energy Recovery Technologies Market is increasing due to the rising need for energy efficiency and sustainable industrial operations during the forecast period 2026-2030F.   


According to TechSci Research report, “Energy Recovery Technologies Market – Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2020-2030F”, The Global Energy Recovery Technologies Market was valued at USD 35.86 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 49.19 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 5.25% during the forecast period.

Rapid industrialization and infrastructure development, particularly in emerging economies, are driving the Energy Recovery Technologies Market by increasing the demand for energy-efficient solutions in new and expanding industrial facilities. Countries like China, India, and Brazil are experiencing significant industrial growth, leading to higher energy consumption and a pressing need to optimize resource use. Energy recovery technologies, such as waste heat recovery systems and pressure exchangers, are being integrated into new manufacturing plants, refineries, and wastewater treatment facilities to reduce energy costs and enhance sustainability.

These technologies are particularly valuable in energy-intensive industries like cement, steel, and petrochemicals, where they can recover significant amounts of energy from high-temperature processes. Additionally, large-scale infrastructure projects, such as smart cities and green buildings, are incorporating energy recovery systems to meet energy efficiency standards and reduce operational costs. The growing focus on sustainable industrial practices, coupled with government incentives for energy-efficient infrastructure, is fueling demand for these technologies. As industrialization continues to accelerate in developing regions, the Energy Recovery Technologies Market is expected to see robust growth, driven by the need to support energy-intensive operations with sustainable solutions.

The World Bank reported in 2024 that industrial output in emerging economies grew by 6.2% annually, with energy consumption rising to 85 exajoules. Energy recovery technologies could reduce this by 12-18%, saving 10.2 to 15.3 exajoules per year, equivalent to the energy consumption of 2.5 to 3.8 million households.

Another critical challenge for the Energy Recovery Technologies Market lies in the inconsistency and unpredictability of regulatory and policy frameworks across different regions and countries. Although many governments promote energy efficiency and emissions reduction through policy initiatives, there is a noticeable lack of standardized regulations and compliance benchmarks specific to energy recovery systems. This inconsistency complicates strategic decision-making for multinational corporations and energy-intensive industries that operate across borders. In regions with weak regulatory enforcement or absence of specific mandates for energy recovery, companies have little incentive to invest in such technologies, as there are no compulsory performance thresholds or penalties for inefficient energy use.

Based on End-User, the Manufacturing and Heavy Industry segment dominated the Energy Recovery Technologies Market and is anticipated to maintain its dominance throughout the forecast period. This segment leads primarily due to its substantial energy consumption across various industrial operations such as metal processing, cement production, glass manufacturing, and other high-temperature, energy-intensive processes. These industries generate significant amounts of waste energy in the form of heat, mechanical motion, and exhaust gases, which can be efficiently captured and repurposed using energy recovery technologies.

The growing focus on enhancing energy efficiency, reducing operational costs, and complying with stringent environmental regulations has further accelerated the adoption of such technologies in this segment. Moreover, the integration of energy recovery solutions aligns with global decarbonization strategies and corporate sustainability goals, making them increasingly attractive for large-scale industrial operations. Governments across developed and developing economies are also offering fiscal incentives and regulatory support to encourage the implementation of energy-efficient systems, which has further propelled market penetration in this segment.

Additionally, the emergence of smart manufacturing and Industry 4.0 practices has led to the modernization of legacy infrastructure, incorporating advanced technologies like thermoelectric generators, organic Rankine cycle systems, and waste heat recovery units. These innovations allow for better system optimization and performance tracking, thereby enhancing the viability and return on investment for energy recovery technologies.

North America has emerged as the fastest-growing region in the global Energy Recovery Technologies Market, driven by a combination of regulatory initiatives, industrial modernization, and rising energy efficiency awareness. The region, particularly the United States and Canada, has witnessed a sharp increase in the adoption of energy recovery systems across sectors such as manufacturing, oil & gas, chemical processing, data centers, and HVAC systems. Regulatory bodies like the U.S. Department of Energy and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have implemented strict energy efficiency mandates and carbon reduction goals, encouraging businesses to adopt energy recovery technologies such as waste heat recovery units, regenerative thermal oxidizers, and energy recovery ventilators.

In addition, the increasing demand for sustainable operations and reduced operational costs is pushing industrial and commercial facilities to invest in technologies that can capture and reuse energy that would otherwise be wasted. Significant investments in smart grid infrastructure, green buildings, and circular economy practices also contribute to the region's rapid growth. Major players like Johnson Controls, Lennox International, and Trane Technologies are headquartered in North America and actively expanding their energy-efficient product portfolios. With strong policy support, technological innovation, and rising environmental consciousness, North America is poised to continue leading growth in the global energy recovery technologies market.
