India data centre cooling market expected to USD 7.13 billion by 2030

The India Data Centre Cooling Market was valued at USD 2.1 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 7.13 billion by 2030, according to Research and Markets.

As digital transformation accelerates across various sectors, including IT, telecom, and finance, the need to manage heat generated by increasingly powerful servers and equipment has become critical. Efficient cooling systems are essential to maintaining optimal performance, reducing energy consumption, and ensuring the reliability of data centers.

The market is characterized by the adoption of advanced cooling technologies, such as liquid cooling, immersion cooling, and high-efficiency air cooling systems, which offer enhanced thermal management and energy efficiency. Additionally, regulatory pressures for energy conservation and sustainable practices are pushing data center operators to invest in innovative cooling solutions that align with environmental standards.

The growing prevalence of cloud computing, big data analytics, and the Internet of Things (IoT) further fuels the demand for scalable and reliable cooling systems. Key players in the market are focusing on technological advancements and strategic partnerships to address the evolving needs of data center operators and to capture a significant share of this expanding market.

The Western region of India emerged as the dominant in the data center cooling market and is expected to retain its leading position throughout the forecast period. This dominance is primarily attributed to the presence of major commercial hubs and technology centers in cities like Mumbai, Pune, and Ahmedabad, which are pivotal in driving data center infrastructure growth. The Western region’s economic vitality, coupled with its robust IT and telecommunications sector, creates a high demand for data centers equipped with advanced cooling systems to manage the substantial thermal loads associated with high-density computing and extensive data processing operations.

The region’s strategic importance as a financial and technological powerhouse attracts significant investments from both domestic and international data center operators, further bolstering the demand for sophisticated cooling solutions. Western region’s well-developed infrastructure, including reliable power supplies and connectivity, supports the efficient operation of large-scale data centers, reinforcing its position as a market leader.

While other regions, such as the Northern and Southern regions, also contribute to the overall market, their data center cooling needs are relatively less pronounced compared to the Western region. The Northern region, with key cities like Delhi and Noida, and the Southern region, with prominent centers like Bangalore and Hyderabad, are experiencing growth in data center establishments, but they do not match the scale and intensity seen in the Western region. As data center expansion continues and the demand for high-performance computing and cloud services increases, the Western region’s strategic advantages and concentration of major technology and business operations are expected to sustain its dominance in the India data center cooling market, driving ongoing investment and development in advanced cooling technologies.
