The Middle East region has dominated the global water desalination market for many years now due to acute water shortage issues across many countries in the region. The region is expected to account for 37.6% of the market share in 2024. Countries like Saudi Arabia, the U.A.E, and Qatar have arid climatic conditions which increases their dependency on desalination plants for water requirements of both municipal and industrial uses. Since fresh water sources are scarce in the region, governments have invested heavily in setting up large seawater reverse osmosis desalination plants along their coasts. This has helped them gain substantial experience and expertise in desalination technologies over the years. The region also has huge oil and gas reserves which provide it with affordable energy required to run the energy-intensive desalination process. These factors coupled with lack of alternative water sources have created a large and sustained market for desalination system suppliers and technology providers in the Middle East.
Looking at regions with high future growth potential, Asia Pacific stands out prominently. Many coastal cities and island nations in the region like China, India, Indonesia, and Australia are increasingly facing the problem of saltwater intrusion in aquifers and groundwater over-extraction. Rising populations and economic development in these areas have led to a surge in demand for fresh water. Considering the availability of coastline and seawater in plenty, these nations have started adapting seawater desalination to bridge the demand-supply gap. Countries like China and India also have a well-established industrial base which helps local desalination equipment manufacturers to grow and address the domestic requirement. Furthermore, several Pacific island countries are fully dependent on desalination for meeting their entire water needs. This makes Asia Pacific one of the fastest expanding markets for desalination systems globally over the coming years.
