India Tunnel Ventilation Systems Market Trends:

Increasing Adoption of Jet Fans in Urban Tunnel Projects

India is experiencing higher demand for jet fan-based ventilation systems, particularly in urban road and metro tunnels. For instance, in March 2025, the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs granted in-principle approval to extend the Delhi Metro’s Millenium City Centre–Samaypur Badli corridor up to Sonipat in Haryana via Nathupur. This extension aims to enhance regional connectivity by integrating Delhi Metro services with Haryana’s transport infrastructure, supporting smoother inter-state commuting and contributing to the broader urban development goals of the National Capital Region. Such metro expansions necessitate advanced ventilation technologies like jet fans to ensure safety and air quality in long tunnels. As metro projects integrate regional transit systems and grow in scale and complexity, the adoption of jet fan systems becomes critical, reinforcing their role in the evolving tunnel ventilation systems market. Additionally, new tunnel designs are incorporating energy-efficient jet fans with noise-reduction features and lower vibration output. This trend is gaining traction as authorities prioritize cost-effective and maintainable solutions in space-constrained metropolitan infrastructure.

Emphasis on Fire Safety and Emergency Ventilation Protocols

With rising concerns over tunnel fire hazards, Indian authorities are enforcing stricter norms related to ventilation system performance during emergencies. This is leading to increased deployment of ventilation systems capable of withstanding high temperatures and facilitating rapid smoke extraction. Projects now require fan systems tested under ISO 13350 or similar fire-resistance standards, and capable of providing sufficient air velocity to control smoke propagation. Emergency evacuation planning is also influencing the design of transverse and semi-transverse systems that maintain tenable conditions for longer durations. Public infrastructure projects such as highway tunnels in the Himalayan region and urban mass transit networks are mandating such enhancements, thereby pushing innovation in safety-focused tunnel ventilation designs. For instance, in January 2025, Kanpur Metro implemented a Tunnel Ventilation System (TVS) across five underground stations, including Chunniganj and Kanpur Central, along Corridor-1 (IIT to Naubasta). Operating approximately 16 meters below ground, the TVS encompasses tunnel ventilation fans, trackway exhaust fans, air handling units, and various dampers, all housed within technical rooms occupying over 30% of each station's underground area. This system is crucial for managing emergencies like fires by controlling smoke movement to facilitate safe evacuations and maintaining comfortable temperatures by extracting heat generated from train operations.
