The Spanish heating sector reached a turnover of €965 million in 2025
The report from FEGECA (the Spanish Association for Heat Generator and Emitter Manufacturers) explains that the heating market is moving towards a model based on the coexistence of diverse technologies capable of offering viable solutions tailored to diverse needs, with growth primarily driven by the replacement market rather than new construction.
Sonia Pomar, Director of FEGECA, presented the 2025 Heating Sector Report, noting the main market findings and trends. Pomar pointed out that in recent years the sector has been impacted by the energy crisis, inventory adjustments and a lack of regulatory clarity. However, she noted that the market is beginning to show signs of stabilisation and recovery, particularly in the replacement segment. The report highlights that 2025 was marked by significant regulatory updates and the launch of public consultations aimed at transposing European directives and regulating the thermal installations sector, factors that are expected to drive market growth in the coming years.
In this transformative context, the heating and domestic hot water (DHW) sector is advancing towards a model defined by decarbonisation, energy efficiency and sustainability. The report highlights the role of renewable gases in the energy transition, framing them as a key opportunity. In this regard, high-efficiency boilers combined with renewable gases are emerging as a realistic and efficient solution for decarbonising the residential stock and meeting European Green Deal objectives.
Additionally, FEGECA supports hybrid solutions, which combine high-efficiency gas boilers with heat pumps. This technology is emerging as one of the alternatives with the greatest growth potential in the coming years as part of the sector’s energy transition.
Aurelio Lanchas, a member of the FEGECA Board of Directors, presented the key market data from the Heating Sector Report, analysing sales figures for the various markets within FEGECA’s remit. These figures provide an up-to-date overview of the sector’s development and prospects.
In economic terms, 2025 showed signs of recovery for the sector, with a turnover of €965 million. The heating market is moving towards a model based on the coexistence of diverse technologies capable of offering viable solutions tailored to diverse needs, with growth driven primarily by the replacement market rather than the new construction sector.
Energy Transition
Within this report, FEGECA highlights that the energy transition is driven by a combination of energy efficiency, progressive electrification and the development of renewable gases, requiring a realistic approach that integrates a range of technologies and solutions capable of meeting the needs of the Spanish market.
Sonia Pomar underscored the current challenges facing the sector, which are characterised by an ongoing transformation driven by decarbonisation, energy efficiency and sustainability. She emphasised that, despite this context, manufacturers maintain an optimistic outlook regarding the future. In this regard, she stressed the importance of strengthening collaboration with the public sector, continuing to promote the development of renewable gases, and making progress in adapting to new market demands. She also expressed her confidence that, owing to the joint efforts of all stakeholders in the sector, new opportunities will arise to enable us to face the future with optimism.
