Liquid Cooling Systems Market Report 2025

The liquid cooling systems market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $5.99 billion in 2024 to $7.15 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to strong economic growth in emerging markets, growth in the manufacturing industry, increased demand for electric vehicles, and the rise in demand for high-performance computing (HPC) systems.

The liquid cooling systems market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $15.26 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the emergence of new data centers, the rise in demand among smartphone manufacturers, government initiatives, and the rising urbanization. Major trends in the forecast period include a focus on direct water-cooling technology, the use of 3d technology, a focus on self-contained liquid cooling systems, a focus on product launches, and strategic partnerships and collaborations.

The growth of the liquid cooling systems market is significantly bolstered by the emergence of new data centers, a key driver expected to fuel market expansion in the forecast period. With the continual rise in digital transformation and the demand for cloud computing services, data centers play a pivotal role in managing vast amounts of data. However, the substantial heat generated by high-performance servers and networking equipment necessitates efficient cooling solutions. Liquid cooling systems prove instrumental in handling high-power densities and providing superior heat dissipation. According to McKinsey, a global management consulting firm, data center power consumption in the USA is projected to grow by 10% annually until 2030, with an expected demand reaching 35 gigawatts by 2030, up from 17 GW in 2022. Thus, the ongoing establishment of new data centers is poised to be a driving force behind the growth of the liquid cooling systems market.

The increasing demand for liquid cooling systems among smartphone manufacturers for thermal management is anticipated to be a significant contributor to the market's growth in the forecast period. As smartphones become more powerful, they generate higher heat levels during resource-intensive tasks such as gaming and video streaming. Liquid cooling systems offer efficient heat dissipation and precise temperature control, crucial for managing the heat generated by advanced processors and GPUs in smartphones. With over 6.5 billion smartphones globally and an expected increase in the coming years, the demand for liquid cooling systems is on the rise. According to Uswitch, a UK-based comparison service, there were 71.8 million mobile connections in the UK at the beginning of 2022, a 3.8% increase from 2021. Predictions indicate that by 2025, approximately 95% of the UK population (around 65 million people) will use smartphones. Hence, the escalating demand for liquid cooling systems in smartphones is poised to propel the growth of the market.

Technological advancements represent a notable trend in the liquid cooling systems market, with major players continually developing innovative technologies to maintain their market positions. In February 2022, Honeywell, a US-based technology company, introduced Solstice E-Cooling, a groundbreaking platform of liquid heat transfer agents designed for efficient cooling of high-performance electronics. This technology employs a two-phase liquid cooling approach, offering more uniform and energy-efficient cooling, enhanced heat rejection, and reduced pumping power compared to conventional methods using air and water.

Innovative technologies such as 3D technology are becoming a focal point for companies in the liquid cooling systems market, aimed at strengthening their market presence. This technology enhances the production of more efficient cooling modules through contoured, graduated inlets, and innovative designs, resulting in improved heat dissipation and performance. In July 2022, Infinix, a China-based smartphone company, launched its 3D Vapor Cloud Chamber (3D VCC) Liquid Cooling Technology, utilizing innovative design for enhanced chamber volume and improved heat dissipation, addressing challenges caused by high temperatures in high-integration and high-power smartphones.

In July 2023, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. (KKR), a US-based investment firm, acquired CoolIT Systems for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition aligns with KKR's strategy to invest in innovative technology companies that develop advanced cooling solutions, particularly in the areas of data centers and high-performance computing. CoolIT Systems is a Canada-based company that specializes in providing liquid cooling solutions tailored for high-performance computing environments and data centers.
