The global household induction cook-tops market can be segmented by region into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Rest of the World. Europe is the largest market for household induction cook-tops and holds over one third of the total market share. However, growing acceptance and adoption of these innovative cook-tops in Asia-Pacific countries is estimated to drive the regional market to become the fastest-growing segment of the household induction cook-tops market. 

By type of product, the market is bifurcated into integrated household induction cook-tops and free-standing household induction cook-tops. Of these, integrated cook-tops led the overall market in 2012 and the segment is projected to register a 5.3% CAGR from 2013 to 2019, garnering high demand from the Middle East and Europe. 

The household induction cook-tops market is stimulated by rising global population, growing emergence of smaller households and working women, higher per capita income, and increasing tendencies toward optimized cooking. Moreover, electric household induction cook-tops have been gaining preference over fuel-based cook-tops owing to mounting fuel prices. This has had a positive impact on the global market. Rapid urbanization and growth in disposable incomes in emerging economies such as India is a factor that is expected to boost the household induction cook-tops market in the coming years. 

However, even with these driving factors, the growth rate of the market is not as high as one would have hoped. An analyst with TMR lists out the forces that prove to be a hindrance for the market. “The first-time purchase of household induction cook-tops is quite high and switching costs in terms of magnetic cookware prevent a large section of the target audience from making the change. The trend of outdoor dining and using microwaves and ovens has grown immensely in recent years, thereby threatening the growth of the household induction cook-tops market,” states the analyst.

The cooling towers market growth worldwide is mainly driven by increasing demand for evaporative cooling towers in the regions such as India, Chain and South Korea. Hybrid cooling towers which reduce plume and prevents Legionnaires' disease are also expected to observe proliferation in its adoption during the forecast period. The cooling towers market lately has also witnessed increase in implementation of closed circuit cooling towers, mainly fueled by demand for cooling towers that utilizes less water. The trend has been prominent in the regions with limited fresh water reservoirs. 

Globally, the cooling towers market is expected to witness high demand during the forecast period, with growth largely driven by replacement of existing cooling towers with the energy efficient cooling towers. Government regulations are promoting the usage of the energy efficient cooling towers and plume abatement hybrid cooling towers. However, the cooling towers industry in Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa, and Latin America are anticipated to continue witnessing usage of low cost open circuit evaporative cooling towers which offer higher thermal efficiency over other designs.

Cooling towers are widely deployed in power generation utilities, manufacturing industries, and HVAC units. These applications require ample of water for cooling the facility. Therefore, there is a wide scope of conserving water through monitoring and maintenance of cooling towers. Thus, in addition to save water, increasing number of end-use industries are seeking energy efficient cooling towers to help save on maintenance cost and achieve higher energy efficiency. Also, with an aim of reducing plume at work places, the developed regions have witnessed proliferation of plume abatement cooling towers against other types. 

The growth in commercial/infrastructure construction activities globally has led to increase in HVAC systems and in-turn has boosted the market for cooling towers. Emerging countries such as China and India, Taiwan, Korea, Singapore, and Indonesia have witnessed an increase in production/processing activity and are showing encouraging signs of economic growth.
