In many industrial processes, heat pumps are applied to recover process waste heat. eat pumping technology finds wide applications in industry, commercial buildings and residential property. National heat pump markets vary considerably across the world, from mature to new markets. This paper discusses the market and trends for heat pumps. Although statistics show that deployment varies widely from one country to another, the overall trend of market growth of heat pumps is favourable. In order to fully contribute to global climate and energy change, there is a need for further deployment of the technology and increased R&D to improve efficiency and reduce costs, as well as for R&D to make the technology competitive for new applications.
