The connected building market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $142.4 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing deployment of AI-driven building management, expansion of cloud-based automation platforms, increased investment in IOT-enabled infrastructure, rising focus on sustainable smart buildings, accelerating adoption of predictive building analytics. Major trends in the forecast period include rising demand for smart building automation, growing use of integrated energy optimization, expansion of real-time sensor monitoring, increased adoption of smart access and safety systems, growth in connected residential infrastructure.
The growing demand for energy-efficient systems is expected to drive the expansion of the connected building market. Energy efficiency refers to the ability of a system, device, or process to use less energy while achieving optimal performance and minimizing waste. The increasing need for energy-efficient systems is driven by the desire to reduce energy consumption and lessen environmental impact. With rising energy prices, both businesses and homeowners are looking for ways to lower costs by adopting energy-efficient solutions, such as smart HVAC systems and automated building controls. Connected buildings leverage IoT-enabled devices, sensors, and automation systems to monitor and control energy-consuming operations such as lighting in real time. These technologies help reduce energy waste, lower utility costs, and improve sustainability, making them appealing to both businesses and homeowners. For example, in October 2022, a report released by Energy UK, a trade association representing the country’s energy industry, highlighted that the number of energy efficiency projects must rise significantly, reaching around 500,000 installations in 2025 and increasing further to one million per year by 2030. As a result, the growing demand for energy-efficient systems is fueling the growth of the connected building market.
Companies in the connected building market are increasingly focusing on sustainable building innovations to enhance efficiency, reduce environmental impact, and support sustainable urban development practices. Sustainable building involves using eco-friendly technologies, materials, and practices to improve a building's energy efficiency, environmental performance, and resilience. For example, in June 2024, Schneider Electric, a France-based automation company, launched a SMART buildings division to drive sustainable building innovation. This division aims to accelerate the adoption of intelligent, energy-efficient, and digitally connected building solutions, supporting Canada’s sustainability goals and the growing demand for smart, net-zero buildings. This initiative reinforces Schneider Electric's commitment to advancing energy-efficient and digitally connected infrastructure.
In July 2023, Johnson Controls International plc, an Ireland-based conglomerate, acquired FM Systems for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition allows Johnson Controls to expand its OpenBlue digital building capabilities by integrating advanced workplace management software into its smart building solutions. FM Systems, a U.S.-based software company, offers solutions that improve workplace experiences, enhance portfolio performance, and drive building efficiencies.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
Tariffs are influencing the connected building market by raising costs for imported smart sensors, control systems, HVAC automation components, and communication modules, increasing overall project expenses and slowing adoption in cost-sensitive regions. The impact is strongest across Asia-Pacific and Europe, where imports of IoT hardware and electronics are substantial. However, tariffs are also stimulating domestic electronics manufacturing, regional IoT innovation, and localized supply chain development, reducing long-term dependency on foreign components.
