Key Players and Competitive Landscape in the Automotive Electronic Expansion Valve Market
The automotive electronic expansion valve market demonstrates notable growth potential. The increased demand for fuel-efficient vehicles led by stringent government regulations to minimize CO2 emissions would support the market growth. Market Research Future (MRFR) confirms that the global automotive electronic expansion valve market would register approximately 6% CAGR during the assessment period (2022–2030).
Electronic expansion valves are used in electric vehicles to heat pump circuits for precise flow regulation for efficient and reliable operation. They offer efficient and reliable operation, covering any air conditioning system demand. Designed for precise liquid injection in evaporators, these valves provide precise flow regulation. Automotive Electronic Expansion Valves (EXVs) can improve the refrigerant system COP of passenger vehicles.
EXVs are rapidly replacing conventional mechanical thermal expansion valve (TXV) devices. EXVs can effectively maximize internal heat exchanger system performances. The quality and durability of EXVs are enhanced by self-lubricating features and the use of stainless material, resulting in improving fuel economy, compressor reliability, and the quality of the refrigerant NVH system.
The global automobile industry is making significant strides, witnessing growing pressure to build more lightweight vehicles. The rising demand for silent compact independent engine cooling systems with superior temperature control quality and flexible arrangement drives the market growth. Besides, stringent regulations to minimize CO2 emissions and initiatives to promote fuel-efficient vehicles offer huge growth opportunities.
On the flip side, volatile prices and the demand-supply gap in raw materials required in manufacturing automotive electronic expansion are significant factors impeding market growth. However, the growing environmental awareness and increased demand for low-noise vehicles would support market growth during the forecast period.
Global Automotive EXV Market – Segmentations
The market is segmented into type, application, and region. The type segment is sub-segmented into electromagnetic and electric electronic expansion valves. Of these, the electromagnetic EXV segment accounts for a larger market share due to its capability to measure differences in the pressure and temperature of vehicles.
