Dublin, Oct. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Data Center Refrigerants - Global Strategic Business Report" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets's offering.
The global market for Data Center Refrigerants was estimated at US$609.4 Million in 2024 and is projected to reach US$958.3 Million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 7.8% from 2024 to 2030. This comprehensive report provides an in-depth analysis of market trends, drivers, and forecasts, helping you make informed business decisions.
As data centers continue to scale to accommodate high-performance computing, AI-driven workloads, and cloud services, efficient cooling has become a top priority. Refrigerants play a vital role in thermal management systems, ensuring optimal operating conditions while reducing energy consumption. Whether used in direct expansion (DX) cooling, liquid-based systems, or chilled water loops, refrigerants help prevent overheating, maintain uptime, and improve power usage effectiveness (PUE).

The increasing demand for sustainable data center operations has driven the transition from hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerants to low-global-warming-potential (GWP) alternatives such as hydrofluoroolefins (HFOs), ammonia (NH3), and carbon dioxide (CO2). With growing regulatory pressure to phase out high-GWP refrigerants under initiatives such as the Kigali Amendment, operators are exploring eco-friendly options that provide efficient heat absorption without negatively impacting the environment. Additionally, AI-powered cooling systems are optimizing refrigerant usage, further reducing energy consumption and carbon footprints.

What Is Driving the Growth of the Data Center Refrigerants Market?
The growth in the data center refrigerants market is driven by the increasing need for sustainable cooling solutions, regulatory mandates for low-GWP refrigerants, and the expansion of high-density computing environments. The transition from high-GWP refrigerants to next-generation alternatives, coupled with AI-powered refrigerant management, is reshaping the cooling industry.
End-use expansion is another key driver, with data center operators in colocation, cloud, and hyperscale environments investing in refrigerants that align with carbon neutrality goals. The rise of liquid and hybrid cooling architectures is further accelerating refrigerant adoption, ensuring compatibility with advanced thermal management technologies. Additionally, collaborations between refrigerant manufacturers and data center infrastructure providers are fostering innovation, leading to the development of customized refrigerant blends optimized for data center cooling efficiency.
What Are the Latest Innovations in Data Center Refrigerants?
The development of ultra-low-GWP and natural refrigerants has revolutionized data center cooling strategies. HFO blends such as R-1234yf and R-513A are gaining traction due to their high efficiency and reduced environmental impact. Additionally, advanced refrigerant leak detection systems integrated with IoT sensors are improving refrigerant lifecycle management, preventing energy losses and minimizing operational risks.
Another innovation is the integration of refrigerant-based cooling with emerging liquid immersion and direct-to-chip cooling technologies. These systems use refrigerants with superior heat transfer capabilities, allowing data centers to operate at higher densities while reducing reliance on traditional air-cooled systems. Furthermore, the adoption of modular and scalable refrigerant-based cooling solutions is enabling edge and hyperscale data centers to optimize thermal performance dynamically.
How Are Market Trends and Regulatory Policies Shaping the Refrigerant Industry?
The data center industry is undergoing a major transformation as global sustainability mandates drive the shift toward environmentally responsible refrigerants. The European Union's F-Gas Regulation and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's AIM Act are accelerating the adoption of low-GWP alternatives, compelling operators to phase out legacy HFCs. Additionally, the push for carbon neutrality and energy-efficient cooling solutions has increased investment in refrigerant recycling and reclamation technologies.
Market trends indicate growing demand for AI-optimized cooling management, where software-driven refrigerant distribution adapts dynamically to workload changes. With colocation and hyperscale data centers prioritizing sustainability, energy-efficient refrigerant solutions are becoming key differentiators in competitive markets. Additionally, advancements in refrigerant lifecycle tracking and recovery systems are ensuring compliance with environmental regulations, preventing refrigerant leakage, and optimizing long-term cooling performance.
