Occupancy Sensors Market Forecast to 2030 | A $5.2 Billion Landscape Driven by the Growing Demand for Energy-Efficient Devices and the Increasing Deployment of Lighting Controllers in Smart Homes


Dublin, April 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Occupancy Sensor Market by Type (Wall Mount, Ceiling Mount, Desk), Operation (Indoor, Outdoor), Connectivity (Wireless, ZigBee, Z-Wave), Technology (Passive Infrared, Ultrasonic, Dual Technology, Image Processing), Installation - Global Forecast to 2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global occupancy sensor market is expected to reach USD 5.20 billion in 2030 from USD 2.75 billion in 2024, at a CAGR of 11.2% during the forecast period.

There is a growing demand for occupancy sensors as IoT technologies are being increasingly integrated along with a governmental emphasis on sustainable lighting solutions. Since urbanization is on the rise, there is a need to optimize energy use, safety, and comfort through lighting control systems over the next few years. For instance, smart street lighting is able to reduce the intake of energy by up to 40% while producing enough illumination along with helping solve environmental and public safety issues simultaneously.

Wireless sensors are expected to dominate the occupancy sensor market. The wireless occupancy sensors eliminate extended wiring. Hence, the installation is faster and less interfering, especially during retrofitting, as the existing infrastructure restricts alterations. The wireless feature also offers flexibility of location; thus, it is easily adapted to changing patterns in layout and usage in both commercial and residential surroundings. Moreover, the advancements in technologies such as Zigbee, Z-Wave, Bluetooth, and many others, make these sensors more reliable and efficient. Additionally, the general trend toward smarter homes and wider implementations of the Internet of Things supports the demand for wireless solutions.

Dual technology occupancy sensors are expected to have the highest growth rate in the market for occupancy sensors. This is due to their better accuracy and reliability, as there are two different sensing technologies in the sensors, such as passive infrared (PIR) and ultrasonic sensors, which can identify occupancy in a wide range of environments and under diverse conditions. This dual technology minimizes false triggers and enhances the detection capabilities. They are suitable to complex spaces like open offices, conference rooms, or industrial settings where movement patterns sometimes present unpredictable configurations.

The Asia Pacific region is expected to witness the highest growth rate in occupancy sensors market because of rapid urbanization, increased energy consumption, and a growing focus on smart building technologies. In countries such as China, India, and many others that are rapidly undergoing infrastructure development, energy-efficient solutions are in high demand in residential, commercial, as well as industrial sectors. Additionally, Government initiatives are working towards the sustainability and smart city projects which are in turn fast tracking occupancy sensors Asia Pacific region.
