According to Straits Research, the global smart lighting market valued at $23.87 billion in 2025, is projected to grow from $28.62 billion in 2026 to $122.08 billion by 2034 at a CAGR of 19.88% during the forecast period 2026–2034.
Smart lights can communicate with Internet of Things (IoT) devices and generate a variety of ambient lighting with the help of only smartphones or tablets. As a result, it has grown in popularity and demand in both commercial and residential settings. Smart lights can be dimmed with different color tones depending on the situation and can be controlled via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, SmartThings, Z-Wave, or ZigBee. They can also be set to turn on and off automatically, track lighting energy consumption, and be dimmed with different color tones. Furthermore, smart lights can be voice-controlled via platforms such as Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, Apple Siri, and Microsoft Cortana.
Smart lighting systems can be sensor-integrated or sensor-free. Sensor-integrated lighting can adjust the brightness of the lights in response to the presence of people and daylight. Integrated lighting systems without sensors are still considered intelligent because they are programmable. Smart lighting consists of various types, including smart bulbs, fixtures, and lighting controls, and provides light from various sources, including LED, HID, and other light sources.
An integrated control system enables users to turn on or off from a single location. The market share of smart lighting is also growing due to the benefit of cost-effectiveness and the growing awareness of the need to save electricity among consumers and the government alike. The development of an integrated lighting control system has allowed for an expansion in the market for smart lighting in international markets.
The global market for smart lighting is anticipated to expand significantly during the forecast period due to the increasing penetration of smart lighting devices due to ongoing smart city initiatives. Governments of developing nations are investing heavily in the creation of smart cities. This presents numerous vendors in information technology, utility services, and consulting with significant business opportunities. The implementation of intelligent lighting is compatible with smart city initiatives. Smart lighting is gaining popularity due to its efficiency, which is one of the primary goals of the smart city project. The application of smart lighting is anticipated to play a significant role in achieving sustainability and energy savings.
The Asia-Pacific dominates the global smart lighting market due to the increasing demand from the commercial and residential application sectors. China is projected to become the most significant contributor to global revenue and the country with the largest market share worldwide. It is anticipated that countries such as Japan, India, and South Korea will be at the forefront of smart lighting adoption due to their expanding economies and rising investments in smart city projects. The changing lighting scenario heavily influences the demand for smart lighting in Asia-Pacific in commercial sectors.
