The growing proliferation of smart city projects is expected to drive the expansion of the smart adaptive lighting retrofit market going forward. Smart city projects refer to urban initiatives that incorporate advanced technologies such as IoT, data analytics, and digital infrastructure to enhance city services and urban systems. The number of smart city projects is increasing as more cities worldwide invest in digital transformation to manage expanding urban populations and infrastructure needs through efficient, data-driven solutions. Smart adaptive lighting retrofits support these projects by upgrading traditional streetlights into intelligent systems that adjust brightness based on traffic, weather, and pedestrian movement, improving energy efficiency, safety, and cost savings while contributing to sustainability objectives. For example, in April 2023, according to the International Institute for Management Development, a Switzerland-based business school, the number of smart cities globally rose from 118 in 2021 to 141 in 2023. Therefore, the rising proliferation of smart city projects is fueling the growth of the smart adaptive lighting retrofit market.

Leading companies in the smart adaptive lighting retrofit market are advancing energy-efficient illumination by integrating Internet of Things (IoT) technology into their lighting systems. These IoT-connected solutions provide automated and adaptive control, optimizing energy consumption through sensors and data analytics while enabling remote monitoring and personalized adjustments based on environmental conditions and user preferences. For example, in March 2023, MEGAMAN, a China-based smart lighting manufacturer, launched the Infinite IoT Lighting Solution series. This platform combines intelligent illumination control with improved energy efficiency, using Bluetooth low energy technology compatible with most smartphones and tablets. Users can manage lighting via a dedicated app or physical switches to turn lights on or off, adjust brightness, and change color temperature. Built-in motion and light sensors further enhance the system by automatically adapting illumination based on occupancy and ambient light, ensuring both energy savings and user comfort in indoor environments.
