North America Residential Electric Radiators Market Growth Factors


Adoption of Renewable Energy Integration to Boost Demand for Electric Radiators


Renewable energy integration is being adopted in several regions, including North America, and this may lead to a rapid growth in the demand for electric radiators. Electric radiators are particularly suitable for homes and businesses that are embracing renewable energy sources such as solar panels or wind turbines. The electricity generated from these sources can power the electric radiators, creating a synergy between sustainable energy production and efficient space heating.


Integrating renewable energy into heating systems becomes crucial as the world focuses on reducing carbon emissions and combating climate change. Residential electric radiators powered by renewable energy contribute to lower carbon footprints by reducing reliance on fossil fuels for heating.


Renewable energy systems often intermittently generate electricity, depending on weather conditions. Electric radiators can take advantage of this flexibility by operating when renewable energy production is at its peak, further optimizing energy use and reducing the strain on the grid.


For instance, in 2022, at the United Nations Climate Change Conference, the U.S. government announced the federal government’s first Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with a utility to work toward reaching 100% carbon pollution-free electricity (CFE), with over 50% of it provided on a 24/7 basis daily, aligning with the specified requirements.


Beneficial Characteristics of Electric Radiators to Drive the Residential Electric Radiators Market Growth


Several factors have driven the thriving demand for electric radiators in North America, with the characteristics of these devices being a major contributing factor. Electric radiators often incorporate advanced heating technologies that ensure efficient energy usage. Many models come equipped with programmable thermostats and timers, providing users with the ability to control when and how much heat is generated. This level of control helps optimize energy consumption and reduce utility costs.


Other benefits of electric radiators include precise temperature control, easy installation, and more. A significant advantage is the ease of installation in residential areas, as no hydronic connection is required. Additionally, it is ideal for off-grid dwellings and boasts a fast response time. Moreover, these radiators can be installed in specific rooms or zones, allowing users to heat only the spaces in use. This zoned heating approach offers flexibility and further contributes to energy efficiency.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


Availability of Alternatives and High Costs May Hinder the Residential Electric Radiators Market Growth


Several factors are negatively impacting the North America residential electric radiators market growth. The primary barrier is the availability of alternative heating products in the market. Additionally, the high cost of the product is set to hinder market growth during the forecast period.


While the installation of these systems is generally easier than traditional heating systems, costs may be involved, especially if there is a need to rewire or modify the electrical system. Furthermore, in regions where electricity prices are considerably higher than the cost of other heating fuels, using electric radiators can result in higher ongoing operating costs. This can be a concern for consumers looking to save on utility bills.


On the other hand, hydronic heating is completely enclosed, with no exposed electrical connections or flames, minimizing fire hazards. The water temperature flowing in a hydronic heating system at a controllable temperature provides perfect comfort levels in individual rooms.


For instance, in May 2021, Jaga expanded its hydronic fan coil unit line. The company announced its higher capacity Briza 26 and Briza 22 hydronic fan coil unit line. These products, available with non-ducted or ducted systems, are small enough to install in the ceiling or wall, offering quiet but high-capacity heating up to 90 MBH.
