Europe Induction Cooktop Market Outlook, 2028

Induction cooktops are quickly gaining popularity in Europe due to the benefits they provide over gas or radiant electric cooking methods. Induction kitchen ranges are the most energy-efficient way to cook. Induction cooktops heat cookware via electromagnets, which reduces boil time while being safer and more efficient than traditional gas or electric power sources. Induction cooktop kitchen ranges are more expensive in both gas and radiant electric types, but they provide value-added characteristics such as performance, safety, and efficiency. Many manufacturers, including Electrolux, Robert Bosch, SMEG, and Miele, are investing in research and development to provide induction kitchen ranges with novel features and designs. In Europe, the adoption of high-tech smart appliances promotes demand for induction hobs, particularly in countries such as Germany, where the population has grown in the last three years. The government and businesses have started a number of measures to promote energy efficiency, which will increase the adoption of smart home devices and services. According to a survey done by the German industry association Bitkom, 41% of all Germans would have at least one smart home device installed by 2021. The biggest motivators for purchasing smart home items, according to 78% of respondents, were simplicity, convenience, and comfort, while 69% wanted to make their homes safer. Energy efficiency was rated as a high purchasing factor by 62% of respondents.

According to the research report, "Europe Induction Cooktop Market Outlook, 2028," published by Bonafide Research, the market is anticipated to reach USD 11.25 Billion. One of the most appealing aspects of induction cooktops is their low energy consumption. When compared to electric and gas cooktops, induction cooktops are one of the most energy-efficient appliances since the energy consumed is transferred to the meal. Buyers will enjoy that these cooktops consume less energy, which is better for the environment and may result in cheaper utility bills. When it comes to homes, more potential buyers prioritise energy efficiency, with buyers finding it to be a highly desired characteristic. As a result, moving from LPG to induction stoves could be one of the policy steps implemented by governments around the world to achieve energy sustainability and reduce carbon emissions. Several technical advancements will drive market expansion, such as kitchen appliance manufacturers replacing old mechanical controls and displays with touch technology to reduce dependability and after-sales expenses. Touch screens with large pictures are also becoming more popular.
