Over the course of the forecast period, the smart lighting market is anticipated to grow at a noteworthy compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.2%. The main factors propelling market expansion are the expansion of smart city initiatives in developing countries and improvements in integrated lighting control systems. The industry is expanding because to government laws requiring the use of LEDs and the rising acceptance of IOT-based smart home automation.
Installing LEDs instead of traditional lighting is primarily motivated by cost and energy savings. In outdoor lighting applications, LEDs are taking the place of traditional light sources such as high-intensity discharge (HID), fluorescent, incandescent, and high-pressure sodium lamps. Stadiums, public areas, roads, and highways are the main locations for outdoor illumination. According to the US DOE, because LED lights are superior to conventional lights, they will account for 86% of all lighting sales by 2035.
