At 12.2% CAGR, the South & Central America Transcritical CO2 Market is projected to be worth US$ 3,805.14 million by 2030, says Business Market Insights

According to Business Market Insights research, the South & Central America transcritical CO2 market was valued at US$ 1,700.56 million in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 3,805.14 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 12.2% from 2023 to 2028. Sustainable cooling and refrigeration solutions and adoption of transcritical CO2 systems in supermarkets and convenience stores are among the critical factors attributed to the South & Central America transcritical CO2 market expansion.        

Transcritical CO2 systems use carbon dioxide (CO2) as a refrigerant, which has an ozone depletion potential (ODP) of zero. Unlike traditional refrigerants such as hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) or hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), which contribute to ozone layer depletion, CO2 does not harm the ozone layer. This characteristic makes transcritical CO2 systems environmentally friendly and aligns with efforts to phase out ozone-depleting substances. Transcritical CO2 systems have a significantly lower global warming potential (GWP) compared to many conventional refrigerants. GWP measures the potential for a greenhouse gas to contribute to global warming over a specific period. CO2 has a GWP of 1, whereas HFCs commonly used in refrigeration systems have GWPs in the thousands or even tens of thousands. By using CO2 as a refrigerant, transcritical systems help mitigate climate change and reduce the carbon footprint of cooling and refrigeration applications. Overall, the low environmental impact of transcritical CO2 systems is driving the market by aligning with environmental goals. As the need for sustainable cooling and refrigeration solutions continues to grow, transcritical CO2 systems offer a viable and attractive option for businesses across various sectors.

On the contrary, higher upfront cost of installing transcritical CO2 system hampers the South & Central America transcritical CO2 market.
