Energy Efficient Windows Global Market Report 2024

The energy efficient windows market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $11.95 billion in 2023 to $12.71 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to industry standards development, early market adoption, architectural and design trends, public and government initiatives, and environmental concerns.

The energy efficient windows market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $15.56 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.2%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to urbanization and construction boom, renewable energy integration, growing awareness and education, stringent environmental regulations, and rising energy costs. Major trends in the forecast period include circular economy and sustainability, health-centric design, digitalization and IoT integration, customization and aesthetics, net-zero energy buildings, and advanced insulation and glazing.

The anticipated growth of the energy-efficient windows market is fueled by the increasing environmental awareness and the widespread adoption of green buildings. Green buildings adhere to practices that prioritize environmental responsibility and resource efficiency throughout the entire construction process. These energy-efficient structures significantly reduce the energy needed for heating and cooling, regardless of the specific equipment chosen for climate control. For example, EnergyStar, a US-based government-backed symbol for energy efficiency, reported that in 2021, over 2.3 million ENERGY STAR certified new homes and apartments were constructed, with more than 120,000 built in that year alone. The ENERGY STAR program for commercial buildings has aided businesses and organizations in saving energy, avoiding substantial energy costs, and achieving notable reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, the combination of increasing environmental awareness and the widespread adoption of green building practices is a key driver behind the growth of the energy-efficient windows market.

The anticipated growth of the energy-efficient windows market is closely tied to the increasing demand for construction activities. Construction involves the assembly of various materials to create structures based on a comprehensive design and blueprint for specific locations. Energy-efficient windows play a crucial role in construction projects, optimizing energy consumption by offering enhanced insulation, natural light, and contributing to sustainable building practices. These windows also contribute to cost savings in heating and cooling. For instance, in April 2023, the United States Census Bureau reported an over 8% increase in the overall value of residential and non-residential construction in the US between 2020 and 2021. This surge in construction demand is a key factor driving the growth of the energy-efficient windows market.

A notable trend in the energy-efficient window equipment market is the increased emphasis on research and development. Stakeholders are dedicating efforts to create windows that not only enhance efficiency but also minimize wastage and energy consumption. A case in point is YES WORLD, a Singapore-based company, which, in January 2023, introduced energy-efficient window solutions designed for both residential and commercial buildings. These specialized windows feature double pane glass and sandwich glass, incorporating a layer of patented material that effectively reflects the majority of solar radiant heat. This innovative solution addresses building envelope deficiencies related to windows, reflecting 85 percent of the sun's heat. As a result, it significantly reduces solar heat gain and decreases energy consumption in terms of HVAC load.

Major players in the energy-efficient windows market are directing their focus towards product innovations, particularly in the realm of transparent glass coatings. These innovations aim to enable sustainable buildings to effectively regulate internal temperatures. Transparent glass coatings involve applying a thin layer or film to the glass surfaces of energy-efficient windows, enhancing their properties, appearance, or functionality while preserving transparency. For instance, in July 2023, Heat Cure Glass Coating, an India-based manufacturing company, introduced heat cure glass coating products for energy-efficient windows. These products feature a nanotechnology-based transparent liquid coating that provides protection from heat and harmful rays, ensuring a cool interior in summers and warmth in winters. The coating boasts a shelf life of up to 12 years without requiring maintenance and offers more than 76% visible light transmission over 3mm glass. This exemplifies a commitment to continuous innovation within the energy-efficient windows market.

In a notable development in November 2022, Santiago Investment Group LLC, a US-based private equity firm, successfully acquired Sprouse Windows and Doors for an undisclosed amount. This strategic acquisition is anticipated to drive innovation and optimization in the creation of new solutions geared towards enhancing building energy efficiency. The primary goals include supporting the company's growth trajectory, upgrading its equipment, and maintaining its longstanding commitment to delivering top-notch products and exceptional customer service. Sprouse Windows and Doors, a leading US-based manufacturer, specializes in crafting energy-efficient vinyl windows and doors, further solidifying the potential impact of this acquisition on the broader market.
