Electric heat tracing system is used to compensate for heat losses and to increase or regulate the temperature of pipes and vessels. Heat tracing cables can be deployed on sewer lines, water, and at precise locations which can suffer from freezing such as fire hydrants, and others. Self-regulating cables are prescribed by most of the industrial heat tracing manufacturers. These are energy proficient heat tracing systems. As electric heat tracing also offers cost effective solutions hence, the demand for such system is expected to grow in near future.

Market Dynamics

The rising demand for electric heat tracing systems from numerous industries such as chemicals, power & energy, and oil & gas; increasing demand for energy proficient self-regulating cable, substitute of steam heat tracing with electric heat tracing systems are majorly driving the growth of electric heat tracing market. Factors such as overlapping of heating cables, functions are restraining the growth of this market. Cost effective solutions regarding maintenance purpose used in electric heat tracing systems is more efficient when compared with steam tracing.
