The hfo- 1234yf market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $0.94 billion in 2023 to $1.05 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.0%. The growth observed in the historical period was primarily driven by the stringent environmental regulations, such as the EU MAC Directive, and international agreements such as the Montreal Protocol aimed at phasing out ozone-depleting substances. Additionally, the automotive industry's firm commitments towards sustainability, coupled with a surge in consumer awareness regarding climate change, played pivotal roles. Moreover, concerns about potential disruptions in the supply chain also contributed to the increased adoption of environmentally friendly refrigerants.
The hfo- 1234yf market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.59 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.9%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period is expected to be driven by increasingly stringent environmental regulations, growing consumer preference for sustainable products, and various governmental incentives and subsidies aimed at promoting eco-friendly practices. Corporations' heightened focus on sustainability initiatives, coupled with international collaborations geared toward achieving environmental objectives, will also contribute significantly. Key trends expected in the forecast period include a stronger emphasis on waste management and recycling practices, a shift towards energy-efficient systems, tailored application solutions to suit specific needs, the adoption of these technologies in emerging markets, and extensive research for the development of next-generation refrigerants. These trends will collectively fuel the growth and adoption of environmentally conscious practices and products in the refrigerant industry.
The escalating prevalence of air conditioning systems is poised to be a primary driver for the HFO-1234YF market. Air conditioning, crucial for maintaining comfortable indoor environments, heavily relies on refrigerants for effective temperature regulation. HFO-1234YF has gained prominence as a pivotal refrigerant, supplanting R-134a in air conditioning units. A case in point is LG Electronics, which reported a remarkable revenue surge of KRW 27.11 trillion (USD 22.92 billion) in the LG Home Appliance and Air Solution segment for 2021, reflecting a substantial 21.7% growth from the previous year. This robust financial performance underscores the pivotal role of air conditioning systems in propelling the demand for HFO-1234YF.
The growing focus on energy efficiency is expected to be a significant catalyst for the continued expansion of the HFO-1234YF market. Energy efficiency revolves around achieving optimal results or task completion with minimal energy consumption. The adoption of HFO-1234yf offers a myriad of advantages, including enhanced energy efficiency, diminished environmental impact, low global warming potential, and ozone depletion potential. Moreover, it exhibits favorable heat transfer properties, aligning with overarching sustainability objectives. Notably, in December 2022, the European Union established ambitious targets to boost energy efficiency, targeting a minimum 32.5% improvement by 2030, as reported by Eurostat, the EU-based statistical office. This growing demand for energy-efficient solutions stands as a pivotal driver fueling the expansion of the HFO-1234YF market.
Prominent in the HFO 1234YF market is the trend of product innovation, where major industry players actively engage in developing novel solutions to fortify their market positions. In April 2022, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Thermal Systems Ltd., a leading Japanese company specializing in thermal and air conditioning systems, introduced the constant-speed JHT-Y and the inverter-equipped JHT-YI. Both versions utilize a CFC-free HFO-1234yf refrigerant with minimal environmental impact, serving as an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional refrigerants. This line of large-capacity centrifugal chillers, employing HFO-1234yf, is poised to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate the impact of climate change.
Major companies are strategically focusing on advanced solutions with lower global-warming-potential (GWP) to gain a competitive edge. In January 2022, Koura, a prominent Mexico-based petrochemical company, introduced the Klea 456A refrigerant. This non-flammable refrigerant boasts a GWP of 626, representing a 46% reduction compared to R-134a. Positioned as a drop-in replacement for R-134a in the automotive aftermarket industry, Klea 456A offers an environmentally friendly alternative with comparable energy efficiency. This innovation underscores the industry's commitment to sustainability by providing a solution that aligns with lower GWP standards while maintaining operational efficiency.
In May 2022, Honeywell International, a well-established US-based manufacturer specializing in HFO-1234YF, established a strategic alliance with NIO Inc., a leading Chinese automotive company. The collaboration aims to outfit NIO's flagship ET7 sedan with HFO-1234YF refrigerant, showcasing NIO's pioneering adoption of this environmentally friendly hydrofluoroolefin (HFO) refrigerant within the Chinese automotive industry. This partnership allows Honeywell International Inc. to provide the state-of-the-art ET7 model with the high-performance, low-GWP HFO-1234yf refrigerant, underscoring a shared commitment to sustainable automotive technologies.
