Market Share of Automotive HVAC Industry
The automotive HVAC market is consolidated, with the top global players accounting for most of the market share. The major companies in the air-conditioning market include MAHLE GmbH, DENSO Corporation, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd, and Hanon Systems. Mergers and acquisitions, partnerships with regional HVAC equipment manufacturers, and establishing and ensuring tie-ups with car manufacturers are some of the dynamics shaping the market's competitive landscape. For instance:
- In November 2021, Hanon System inaugurated its two new establishments in Hungary - a new greenfield production facility in P茅cs and a building expansion in R茅ts谩g. The facility provides 22,464 square meters of manufacturing space and accommodates equipment including forming, brazing, welding and bending, assembly lines and testing for automotive air conditioning (A/C) lines.
- In August 2021, Valeo announced New Valeo heat pump that procures two-thirds of its energy demand from the ambient air, thereby limiting the need to draw energy from the onboard batteries, and uses a natural refrigerant. EVs equipped with the device can travel up to 30% further at -15掳C than those fitted with more conventional heating systems.
- In February 2021, Highly Marelli Holdings Co., Ltd., a previously announced joint venture between Highly International (Hong Kong) Limited and Marelli Corporation K.K., has been formed. Highly Marelli will concentrate on providing world-class solutions for clients and suppliers in the areas of compressor electrification, heat pump systems, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning ("HVAC") and electric driven compressor ("EDC") systems.
