How Has The Water Desalination Equipment Market Size Evolved In Recent Years?
The water desalination equipment market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The market size for water desalination equipment has experienced swift expansion in the preceding years. There will be a growth from $17.44 billion in 2024, escalating to $19.52 billion in 2025, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.0%.
The development during the historical timeframe is due to the increase in water shortage, population surge, governmental interventions, expansion in industrial requirements, and growth in urbanization.
What Are The Estimated Market Size And Expected Annual Growth Rates For Global Water Desalination Equipment Market?
The water desalination equipment market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• Anticipated to witness swift expansion in the forthcoming years, the market size of water desalination equipment is projected to hit the $30.69 billion mark by the year 2029, escalating at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.0%.
The expected surge during this period can be attributed to contributing factors such as investment in infrastructure, deteriorating water infrastructure, a boost in tourism and recreation, and heightened public health concerns. The key trends that are anticipated to emerge strongly during this prediction period include advancements in forward osmosis technology, decentralization in desalination, hybrid desalination systems, zero liquid discharge (ZLD), and the inception of smart desalination plants.
Which Drivers Are Accelerating Growth In The Water Desalination Equipment Market?
The upswing in urbanization and industrialization is anticipated to spur the progress of the water desalination equipment market. Urbanization signifies the migration of populations from rural areas to urban locales and the escalating density of human populations in these urban zones. Mounting urbanization and industrialization are resulting in water scarcity, and the dwindling freshwater resources are fanning an increased call for water desalination technology to extract salt from water and remove salinity. For example, the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs forecasts that by 2050, 68% of the global population, which equates to 2.5 billion people, are predicted to inhabit urban regions. Consequently, burgeoning urbanization and industrialization worldwide will energize the water desalination equipment market.
