Immersion Cooling Market To Hit Value 5.2 Million By 2027

Posted by Mrudula Anil Karmarkar on December 31st, 2020

The global immersion cooling market size is projected to reach USD 855.2 million by 2027, registering a CAGR of 22.8% during the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Rising investments in data center infrastructure along with the increasing power consumption are expected to surge the product demand.

With the rapid development of internet of things (IoT), virtual reality (VR), 5G, artificial intelligence (AI) and the commercial application of the new cutting edge technologies, the demand for information interaction and data processing is increasing which has sped up the construction of new data centers resulting in creating opportunities for product manufacturers in recent times.

Rising investments in single assets and portfolios, increasing capitalization rates for stabilized data centers, an increase in the worldwide spending on public cloud services and infrastructure, and various government initiatives such as “Digital India” are expected to stimulate the demand for immersion cooling systems in the forthcoming years.

Single-phase is expected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period, on account of its low system, tank and coolant cost; high coolant heat capacity; high dielectric strength; high biodegradability, and low environmental impact or Global Warming Potential (GWP) in comparison to two-phase immersion cooling systems.

There are more than 7,500 data centers across the globe, with over 2600 in the top 20 cities alone. The data center construction is anticipated to grow at 21% per year in the next three years according to the semi-annual ranking of the Top 500. Rising investments in data center infrastructure along with the increase in power consumption are expected to surge the demand for immersion cooling systems in the forthcoming years.

The Chinese data center industry stood at USD 17.8 billion in 2020, up 30% year-on-year, and is expected to reach USD 29 billion in 2020 according to the statistics provided by Yingkou People's Municipal Government. China continued to dominate the list of the world’s fastest supercomputers in terms of computer units and opened 437 new data centers in the last three years.

Immersion Cooling Market Report Highlights

  • In terms of revenue, the two-phase immersion cooling system is projected to expand at a CAGR of 23.4% owing to higher energy efficiency and energy savings, improved reliability, lower maintenance requirement, and deployment flexibility of the product
  • High-performance computing contributed 35.8% to the overall market share in 2020 as they provide advantages for organizations that need a vast amount of computing power from their cloud providers
  • Cryptocurrency mining application segment is expected to witness a CAGR of 24.6% over the forecast period, owing to enhanced transactional security, quick international transfers, decentralized system, and protection from fraud
  • Asia Pacific is projected to witness robust growth over the forecast period due to the increased demand for data centers, rising power consumption, and an increasing number of AI application-driven startups
  • The immersion cooling market has been witnessing key developments in terms of technological advancements and sustainability wherein the companies have been optimistic in developing strategies to gain a competitive advantage

When the average power density of data centers per rack is greater than 7 kW, the space utilization gets reduced by 50% as almost half of this space is required by cooling and power equipment alone, and only 50% is left for the actual IT equipment. Hence, the demand for immersion cooling systems is expected to grow exponentially as these systems do not require additional space and have low power usage in comparison to conventional cooling methods.

With the explosion of internet of thing (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI) in the enterprise, companies are now working with unprecedented amounts of data which require higher density IT gear to work at an enterprise level. A large number of existing data centers cannot accommodate these new types of workloads. This in result has strengthened the demand for immersion cooling data centers on account of their space optimization and low power usage effectiveness.

More than 60% of the data centers across the globe use air cooling on account of its low costs and no environmental impact. In addition, converting an existing data center into immersion cooling data center requires a rack by rack conversion which in turn increases the operation and maintenance costs. Furthermore, fluorocarbons used as a coolant in two-phase system recondense on everything leaving a toxic dew which if inhaled can damage the lungs.
