簡介目錄

全球區域供熱市場預計將從 2025 年的 1,748.4 億美元成長到 2031 年的 2,328.3 億美元,複合年成長率為 4.89%。

區域供熱是一種集中式能源供應系統,它利用地下保溫管道網路輸送熱水或蒸氣,為住宅和商業建築提供供暖和熱水。該產業的成長主要得益於各國政府嚴格的脫碳政策、對能源效率日益成長的重視,以及為減少對石化燃料的依賴而策略性地採用生質能源和地熱能等可再生能源。根據歐洲供熱與電力協會(Euroheat & Power)2024年的數據,“在調查對象國家中,共識別出19,037個區域供熱網路,為歐洲超過7730萬人提供供熱。”

然而,這個市場面臨一個主要障礙:基礎建設需要大量的初期投資。鋪設龐大的管道網路和升級老舊系統相關的高昂成本往往構成了一道財務壁壘,尤其是在那些低成本天然氣基礎設施和分散式供熱方案已經成熟且具有競爭力的地區。

市場促進因素

隨著各國政府將減少建築業的碳排放列為優先事項,嚴格的環境法規和脫碳要求正從根本上改變全球區域供熱的模式。政策制定者正積極推動嚴格的目標和金融機制,以加速從石化燃料供熱向低碳替代能源的轉型,並大力投資基礎設施建設,以實現國家淨零排放目標。例如,2024年9月,英國能源安全與淨零排放部宣布,綠色供熱網路基金將撥款5,700萬英鎊用於五個新增項目,這是英國政府一項旨在減少超過38.5萬噸二氧化碳排放的計畫的一部分。

同時,再生能源來源和先進儲熱技術的快速普及正在提升集中供熱系統的運作柔軟性。公共產業正大力投資大規模電鍋爐和儲熱系統,以應對再生能源的波動並穩定電網負荷,從而有效地將供熱與波動劇烈的石化燃料市場脫鉤。為了體現這一趨勢,富騰集團在2024年3月發布的新聞稿《富騰將在埃斯波建設高度柔軟性的電力驅動型區域供熱設施》中宣布,已開始建造一座配備50兆瓦電鍋爐和800兆瓦時儲熱系統的供熱廠。這種向更清潔能源結構的轉型正在推動其更廣泛的應用。歐洲供熱與電力協會在2024年報告中指出,2023年丹麥接入區域供熱系統的家庭數量增加了4萬戶,這就是例證。

市場挑戰

基礎設施建設所需的大量前期投資是全球區域供熱市場的主要阻礙因素。這些系統的建設涉及大規模的土木工程,例如開挖溝渠和管道鋪設,顯著增加了人事費用和材料成本。高昂的初始成本導致投資回收期延長,使得新建區域供熱項目難以在經濟上與依賴現有折舊基礎設施的分散式供熱方案(例如天然氣燃氣鍋爐)競爭。因此,由於資金短缺和巨額資本投入帶來的財務風險,私人投資者和市政當局經常推遲或放棄管網擴建項目。

近期產業數據顯示,該產業面臨龐大的資金需求,凸顯了這些經濟障礙。德國供暖、製冷和汽電共生聯產能源效率協會在其2024年報告中指出:「到2030年,該行業需要435億歐元的投資才能實現其擴張目標,其中60%將專門用於供熱網路的建設。」如此龐大的配熱網路建設資金需求直接限制了市場擴充性,並阻礙了缺乏長期基礎設施通路資金籌措地區的普及。

市場趨勢

從資料中心和工業設施回收廢熱正成為提高區域供熱能源效率和循環利用的關鍵趨勢。營運商正擴大回收高負載運算基礎設施產生的剩餘熱能,用於城市供熱網路,這不僅改變了基於產品的收入模式,還降低了資料中心的冷卻成本。這種互惠互利的關係減少了對一次熱源的需求,並透過利用原本會被浪費的能源,助力城市脫碳。例如,在2025年4月發布的題為「利用現有NTT DATA資料中心的廢熱為柏林地區提供環保供熱」的新聞稿中,NTT DATA宣布了夥伴關係,將為當地社區提供高達8兆瓦的無碳供熱供給能力,從而顯著降低該地區對傳統燃料的依賴。

同時,大規模工業熱泵的部署正在推動電力結構重組,促進公用事業規模的熱能高效電氣化。與直接電鍋爐不同,這些系統利用海水和污水等環境能源來源,實現了高性能係數,使其成為替代基本負載石化燃料發電的關鍵,並使電網能夠以更高的效率利用綠色電力進行供熱。例如,在2024年11月的新聞稿《MAN Energy Solutions交付用於氣候中性區域供熱的大型熱泵》中,MAN Energy Solutions宣佈在埃斯比雅爾運作了一台70兆瓦的二氧化碳海水熱泵,該熱泵能夠為約25,000戶家庭提供氣候中性供熱。

Product Code: 20015

The Global District Heating Market is projected to expand from USD 174.84 Billion in 2025 to USD 232.83 Billion by 2031, reflecting a compound annual growth rate of 4.89%. District heating operates as a centralized energy distribution mechanism, utilizing an underground network of insulated pipes to transport heated water or steam for space heating and hot water in residential and commercial structures. Growth in this sector is primarily fueled by strict government decarbonization mandates, an increased emphasis on energy efficiency, and the strategic incorporation of renewable sources like bioenergy and geothermal heat to lower fossil fuel dependence. Data from 'Euroheat & Power' in '2024' indicates that '19,037 district heating networks were identified in the countries surveyed, supplying heat to over 77.3 million people in Europe'.

However, the market faces a significant obstacle in the form of substantial initial capital investments required for infrastructure development. The elevated costs involved in laying extensive piping networks and upgrading aging systems often establish financial hurdles, especially in areas where low-cost natural gas infrastructure or decentralized heating alternatives are already well-established and competitive.

Market Driver

Rigid environmental regulations and decarbonization mandates are fundamentally reshaping the global district heating landscape as governments prioritize cutting carbon emissions within the building sector. Policymakers are increasingly enforcing strict targets and introducing financial mechanisms to hasten the shift from fossil fuel-based heating to low-carbon alternatives, driving significant public investment into infrastructure that meets national net-zero objectives. For instance, the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero announced in September 2024 that the 'Green Heat Network Fund awards another £57m to five more projects', a UK government initiative expected to save over 385,000 tonnes of CO2.

Simultaneously, the rapid adoption of renewable energy sources and advanced thermal storage technologies is improving the operational flexibility of centralized heating systems. Utilities are making substantial investments in large-scale electric boilers and heat accumulators to manage fluctuating renewable electricity and stabilize grid loads, effectively decoupling heat generation from volatile fossil fuel markets. Highlighting this trend, Fortum announced in a March 2024 press release titled 'Fortum builds more flexible, electricity-based district heat production in Espoo' that it had begun constructing a plant with a 50-megawatt electric boiler and an 800-megawatt-hour heat accumulator. This shift toward cleaner energy mixes is encouraging wider adoption, as evidenced by Euroheat & Power reporting in 2024 that the number of households connected to district heating in Denmark rose by 40,000 during 2023.

Market Challenge

The significant upfront capital required for infrastructure development acts as a primary constraint on the global district heating market. Constructing these systems involves extensive civil engineering tasks, such as trenching and pipe installation, which substantially increase labor and material expenses. These high initial costs result in extended payback periods, making it challenging for new district energy projects to compete financially with decentralized options like natural gas boilers that rely on existing, fully amortized infrastructure; consequently, private investors and municipalities frequently postpone or cancel network expansions due to liquidity shortages and the financial risks tied to such heavy capital allocation.

Recent industry data underscores this economic barrier by highlighting the massive funding necessities facing the sector. According to the 'German Energy Efficiency Association for Heating, Cooling and CHP' in '2024', 'the sector requires an investment of 43.5 billion euros by 2030 to meet expansion targets, with 60% of this total needed specifically for the construction of heating grids'. Such steep funding requirements for distribution networks directly restrict the market's scalability, hindering broader adoption in regions that lack access to long-term infrastructure financing.

Market Trends

The recovery of waste heat from data centers and industrial facilities is becoming a pivotal trend for improving energy efficiency and circularity within district heating. Operators are increasingly capturing excess thermal energy from high-compute infrastructure to supply urban networks, converting a byproduct into a profitable revenue source while simultaneously lowering cooling costs for data centers; this symbiotic relationship reduces the need for primary heat generation and aids urban decarbonization by utilizing energy that would otherwise be lost. For example, in the 'Waste Heat from NTT DATA's Existing Data Centers to Provide Climate-Friendly Heating in Berlin District' press release from April 2025, NTT DATA announced a partnership to provide up to 8 MW of carbon-free heating capacity to a local district, thereby significantly reducing the area's dependence on conventional fuels.

At the same time, the deployment of large-scale industrial heat pumps is reshaping generation portfolios by facilitating the efficient electrification of heat at a utility scale. Unlike direct electric boilers, these systems harness ambient energy sources such as seawater or wastewater to achieve high performance coefficients, rendering them crucial for replacing baseload fossil fuel generation and allowing networks to use green electricity for thermal production with superior efficiency. Illustrating this advancement, MAN Energy Solutions announced in a November 2024 press release titled 'MAN Energy Solutions delivers mega heat pump for climate-neutral district heating' that it had commissioned a 70 MW CO2-based seawater heat pump in Esbjerg capable of supplying climate-neutral heat to approximately 25,000 households.
