• In the coming years, the airport smart lighting market is anticipated to witness robust expansion, reaching $1.78 billion by 2029 with a CAGR of 9.7%.
The substantial growth anticipated during the forecast period is due to the increasing requirement for energy efficiency, emphasis on exceptional passenger experience, compulsory safety and security needs, cost-effectiveness, and operational proficiency, adherence to regulatory standards, data-informed strategy, and innovative airport initiatives. Some significant trends that will shape the sector during the forecast period are the adoption of LED technology, the integration of Internet of Things and sensors, a concentration on sustainability, enhanced passenger comfort, integration of the smart airport ecosystem, remote overseeing and administration, and data-oriented insights and analytics.
Which Factors Are Boosting Growth In The Airport Smart Lighting Market?
The airport smart lighting market is anticipated to grow exponentially due to the increasing demand in air travel. Air travel, characterised by transporting passengers and goods between different places, regions or countries through aircraft, is becoming more popular because of the enhanced affordability and accessibility of flights, spurred by technological advancements, airline competition, and the emergence of budget airlines. Airport smart lighting contributes to this growth by amping up visibility, safety, and energy effectiveness through dynamic changes that rely on passenger volume, weather situations, and time of the day, ultimately improving general airport operations and experience. As an example, Eurostat, the statistical office of the European Union based in Luxembourg, noted that in November 2023, the EU experienced a notable boost in air travel. The total number of passengers hit 820 million in 2022, reflecting a significant rise of 119.3% compared to the year before. Ergo, the growing demand in air travel is bolstering the expansion of the airport smart lighting market.
