Smart Street Lighting Market Forecasts to 2030 – Global Analysis By Type (Solar-Powered Street Lights, Remote Controlled Street Lights and Other Types), Component (Hardware, Services and Software), Technology, Application, End User and By Geography


According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Smart Street Lighting Market is accounted for $20.18 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $69.89 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 23.0% during the forecast period. Smart street lighting refers to advanced lighting systems that use IoT technology to manage street lights more efficiently and effectively. These systems employ sensors, cameras, and connectivity to adjust lighting based on real-time conditions such as traffic flow, pedestrian presence, and environmental factors. Benefits include reduced energy consumption, lower maintenance costs, and enhanced public safety.

According to the International Energy Agency reports, developing nations and emerging markets would account for about 70% of the expected increase in energy consumption, with smart street lighting demand rising to 3.4%.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Rising demand for energy management

The rising demand for energy management is a key driver in the smart street lighting market. Cities are increasingly focusing on reducing energy consumption and costs, prompting the adoption of smart street lighting solutions. These systems use LED lights, sensors, and networked controls to adjust lighting based on real-time conditions, such as traffic and ambient light levels, leading to significant energy savings. Additionally, the integration of energy management systems allows for the monitoring and optimization of energy use, reducing carbon footprints, and supporting sustainability goals.

Restraint:

Poor infrastructure in developing economies

Poor infrastructure in developing economies significantly restrains the growth of the smart street lighting market. Key issues include unreliable power supplies, inadequate electrical grids, and limited access to advanced technology. These challenges hinder the installation and maintenance of smart lighting systems, which require stable and efficient energy distribution. Additionally, the high initial investment costs and lack of skilled personnel further impede development in these regions. Without substantial improvements in basic infrastructure, implementing and scaling smart street lighting solutions remains difficult.

Opportunity:

Raising deployment of 5G network

The deployment of 5G networks offers significant opportunities for smart street lighting systems. With 5G's high speed, low latency, and massive connectivity, smart streetlights can become integral nodes in urban IoT ecosystems. They can leverage 5G to enhance their real-time capabilities, such as dynamic dimming, environmental sensing, and traffic management. 5G enables seamless integration with other smart city applications, facilitating improved energy efficiency and maintenance through predictive analytics. Additionally, it allows streetlights to serve as communication hubs for autonomous vehicles and other smart devices, driving advancements in urban infrastructure and public services.

Threat:

Circadian rhythms

The circadian rhythms threat in the smart street lighting market is due to the adverse effects that artificial lighting can have on natural biological cycles. Smart street lights, which can dynamically adjust brightness, color, and timing, may disrupt the circadian rhythms of humans and wildlife if not properly managed. Misaligned light cycles can lead to sleep disorders, impaired cognitive functions, and increased stress levels in humans, while also affecting the behavior and habitat of nocturnal animals and plants.

Covid-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the smart street lighting market by disrupting supply chains and delaying infrastructure projects due to lockdowns and economic uncertainties. However, the increased focus on energy efficiency and smart city initiatives during the pandemic bolstered interest in smart street lighting as a means to reduce operational costs and enhance public safety. The remote monitoring capabilities of smart lighting systems became particularly valuable in managing city services with reduced human intervention.

The services segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The services segment in the smart street lighting market is experiencing robust growth driven by several factors. These include the increasing adoption of service-based models such as lighting-as-a-service (LaaS), where municipalities and utilities prefer outsourcing maintenance, upgrades, and management to specialized providers. This model reduces upfront costs and technical complexity for cities. Moreover, advancements in data analytics, remote monitoring, and predictive maintenance enhance operational efficiency and reduce downtime. The rising demand for integrated services that includes energy management and smart city solutions further fuels growth.

The narrowband segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The narrowband segment of the smart street lighting market is experiencing rapid growth due to its cost-effectiveness and efficiency in connecting a large number of devices over extended distances. Narrowband technologies, such as NB-IoT (Narrowband Internet of Things), offer advantages in low power consumption and enhanced coverage, making them ideal for urban and rural smart lighting solutions. These systems facilitate better data collection and control, leading to improved energy management and reduced operational costs.

Region with largest share:

The smart street lighting market in North America is experiencing robust growth due to several key factors. Government initiatives and investments in smart city projects are driving demand for energy-efficient and connected street lighting systems. The integration of Internet of Things (IoT) technology enhances real-time monitoring and control, reducing energy consumption and maintenance costs. Advancements in LED technology and the increasing adoption of adaptive lighting further support market expansion. Additionally, growing environmental concerns and regulatory mandates for energy efficiency are propelling the transition to smart street lighting across urban and suburban areas.

Region with highest CAGR:

The Asia-Pacific region is experiencing significant growth in the smart street lighting market, driven by rapid urbanization, smart city initiatives, and increased government investments in energy-efficient infrastructure. Countries like China, India, and Japan are leading this surge, leveraging advanced technologies like IoT and AI to enhance public lighting systems. Rising energy costs and the need to reduce carbon emissions further accelerate adoption. The market also benefits from declining LED prices and increasing awareness of the long-term cost savings and environmental benefits of smart lighting solutions.
