Smart Lighting Market size was over USD 20.57 billion in 2024 and is poised to exceed USD 264.25 billion by 2037, growing at over 21.7% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of smart lighting is evaluated at USD 24.36 billion.
The growth of the market is due to the adoption of energy-efficient lightening solutions that are safe for the environment. Smart lighting solutions have been rapidly adopted to meet an urgent need for energy efficiency and environmental sustainability. These systems enable precise control of lighting levels with regard to room occupancy and natural daylight availability, which leads to substantial energy savings. By 2020, the European Union (EU) promised to reduce energy usage by 20% from baseline predictions.
In addition, the lighting system is interconnected to the Internet in a wide way through wireless technology that allows remote control and monitoring. Bluetooth technology, making it easy for mobile devices to control and configure lights, is a common feature of indoor lighting systems. In order to grow in the market, intelligent home products such as lighting systems are being used on a regular basis by Zigbee technology. Also, the use of voice to control lights through an integration with a platform like Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, Apple Siri or Microsoft Cortana.

Component (Hardware, Software, Services)
The hardware segment is attributed to hold 48% share of the global smart lighting market during the forecast period. The growing popularity of connected lighting devices and fixtures that can change color, dim light, or turn them on using a control device such as a mobile phone or tablet is reflected in the hardware demand segment. A total of 6.8 billion mobile phone users are now in the world. Given the world's population is in excess of 8 billion, this would mean a 75 % penetration rate for smartphones.
Connectivity (Wired, Wireless)
The wireless segment in the smart lighting market is expected to hold 55% of the revenue share by 2037. Consumers who need a connection range of less than 5 km are highly preferred to network in an intelligent lighting environment, and that segment is expected to grow significantly over the forecast period. Wireless technology such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, SmartThings, Z-Wave, or ZigBee connects lighting fixtures with smartphone apps to control the light bulb's functions. The residential sector has majorly adopted wireless technology to control the luminaire hues and colors for aesthetic purposes within a confined space. The number of wireless broadband subscriptions around the world is set to reach 6.044 billion by 2020.

European Market Forecast
Europe industry is expected to dominate majority revenue share of 32% by 2037. The growth of the market in the region is due to some indoor commercial intelligent lighting standards for garages, highways, and parking facilities, and Europe has taken the lead in developing safety and harmonized performance standards. According to the continuing advances in light emitting diode design and technology, focused lighting as well as smart replacement lamps for LEDs are becoming a key growth area of the lighting industry. Existing manufacturers are expanding their product lines in order to enter the market in the region, while traditional smart lighting producers continue to keep an ever-increasing number of new products available. Especially with the applications of Downlights, Task Lights, Landscape Lights, General Ambient, and Outdoor Lighting, it can be seen that there is an impending surplus of suppliers specialized in the market. For example, the Worcestershire County Council announced in March 2022 that up to 20,000 streetlight bulbs would be replaced by more energy-efficient LEDs. Around 35,000 lights have already been replaced by the Council in this area.
North American Market Statistics
Smart lighting market in North America is projected to hold second largest share of about 27% by the end of 2037. The growth in consumer acceptance of smart lighting and energy efficiency solutions, together with the region's illumination problem, is driving consumers to embrace such technologies. In addition, there are a number of prominent companies in the region who have put into place smart lighting solutions with the most recent technologies and this is making it easier to adopt intelligent lighting solutions.
