[191 Pages Report] The Atmospheric Water Generator Market size was estimated at USD 1.38 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 1.59 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 17.08% to reach USD 4.17 billion by 2030.

Atmospheric water generators (AWG) are devices that extract water from humid ambient air. AWGs use cooling and desiccant-based technologies to condense water vapor from the air and collect it for use. This market serves a wide range of consumers, from individual households to large industrial facilities, catering to areas with scarce water resources or where conventional water supply systems are inadequate, unreliable, or contaminated. Atmospheric water generators find applications in various sectors, including residential, commercial, industrial, and military. Increasing demand for potable water in regions with limited access to clean water or infrastructure is driving the growth of the market. Financial incentives and subsidies provided by governments to adopt alternative water supply solutions are expanding the scope of the market. The high cost and continuous need for regular maintenance and filter changes hamper the market growth. The growing development of high-efficiency, low-energy-consuming AWGs by market vendors that increase water yield and energy efficiency is expected to create opportunities for market growth.

Product: Growing usage of cooling condensation atmospheric water generators (AWGs) as they are more effective in humid environments

Cooling condensation atmospheric water generators (AWGs) operate by cooling the air to condense water vapor into liquid form. This technology is similar to the way dew forms. The process involves drawing air into the system, cooling it below its dew point, and collecting the resulting condensation. The need for cooling condensation AWGs is typically high in areas with higher humidity levels, as the efficiency of water generation is directly related to the moisture content in the air. Wet desiccation atmospheric water generators utilize hygroscopic compounds that naturally absorb moisture from the air and then use a subsequent process to extract the water. This process is well suited for areas with low humidity levels because it does not rely on the presence of high moisture content in the air. The need for wet desiccation AWGs is generally higher in arid regions where traditional dehumidification methods are less effective.

Application: Growing potential for atmospheric water generators across industrial applications due to their durability and tend to place a higher emphasis on volume

Commercial applications of atmospheric water generators include establishments such as offices, schools, hospitals, and retail spaces where the demand for consistent and clean water supply is significant. Commercial units are designed to cater to higher water consumption rates and are typically more robust and larger in capacity than residential units. The need-based preference here is driven by organizations striving to ensure the well-being of staff and visitors and those looking to reduce reliance on bottled water for environmental and cost reasons. Industrial applications often encompass manufacturing facilities, agricultural operations, and military bases where access to a safe and reliable source of water can be challenging. Industrial units are engineered for durability and tend to place a higher emphasis on volume, capable of producing hundreds to thousands of liters of water per day. The need here is critical due to the sheer scale of water required for various industrial processes and emergency preparedness in locations where water infrastructure is absent or compromised. Within the residential sector, atmospheric water generators are utilized in homes to provide a reliable source of drinking water. These units are typically smaller in scale, designed to be user-friendly, and are available at price points that make them accessible to a wider audience. The need-based preference in the residential segment is primarily influenced by the quality of tap water, the cost and inconvenience of bottled water, and concerns over the environmental impact of plastic waste.

Regional Insights

In the Americas, the demand for atmospheric water generators (AWGs) is catalyzed by growing awareness about sustainable water sources, innovations in water conservation technology, and supportive government initiatives. Consumers in South American regions with higher disposable incomes have started adopting AWGs as a measure of water security and to reduce dependence on traditional water supply methods. Across the European Union, the emphasis on sustainable living and the high standard for water quality has steered the prospects for AWGs. Countries here are keen on adopting environmentally friendly technologies, which bodes well for the adoption of AWGs. The customer purchasing behavior leans towards eco-friendly and energy-efficient products due to the stringent regulatory frameworks advocating for greener technologies. In the Middle East and parts of Africa, where water scarcity is a critical issue, the need for AWGs is becoming a viable solution to their water scarcity problems. In the Asia Pacific region, there’s a juxtaposition of highly industrialized nations, including Japan, India, and China, resulting in diverse consumer needs and customer purchasing behaviors. Japan holds patents emphasizing technological advancements in AWGs, mirroring its broader dedication to innovation. China, driven by urbanization and industrial growth, is seeing an uptick in demand for both commercial and industrial AWGs, supported by government efforts to combat water pollution and private investments.
