The Market Reports

Synopsis

The global market for Occupancy Sensor was estimated to be worth US$ 2043 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 3489 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 7.9% during the forecast period 2025-2031.

Occupancy sensors are devices that detect when a space is unoccupied and accordingly automatically turn OFF (or dim) the lights, thereby saving energy. The device may also turn the lights ON automatically upon detecting the presence of people, providing convenience and a potential security aid. According to the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, occupancy-based strategies can produce average lighting energy savings of 24%. Due to their relative simplicity and high energy-savings potential, coupled with energy code mandates, these sensors are a staple in new construction. They are also a common control feature in retrofit projects.

Global occupancy sensor market key players include Signify, Schneider Electric, Honeywell and GE Current, they hold about 40% of global shares. Asia Pacific and Europe are the key market, have a share about 60%. PIR (passive infrared) Sensors is the key type, with a share over 50%. Non-residential application is the mainstream, which occupies about 70% of the global market.

The market drivers for the occupancy sensor industry primarily stem from the growing demand for intelligent solutions and the heightened awareness of energy conservation and environmental protection. With the advancement of smart homes, intelligent buildings, and Industry 4.0, there is an increasing need for automation and intelligent solutions, where occupancy sensors play a pivotal role. These sensors are crucial for automatically controlling lighting, air conditioning, security systems, and more, thereby enhancing energy efficiency and user experience. Moreover, energy saving and emission reduction have become a global consensus, with more businesses and consumers opting for products that can reduce energy consumption. Occupancy sensors contribute significantly to energy conservation by intelligently detecting unoccupied areas and automatically shutting down equipment, aligning with the current trend towards green development. Technological advancements and cost reductions are also key drivers. Innovations in sensor technology, such as the integration of infrared, ultrasonic, and microwave radar multi-modal fusion technologies, have made occupancy sensors more accurate, reliable, and multifunctional. Additionally, the expansion of production scale and technological maturity have led to gradual cost reductions, further promoting their widespread application.

The future trends in the occupancy sensor industry are reflected in the integration of the Internet of Things (IoT) and big data, as well as the focus on safety and health. As an integral part of IoT, occupancy sensors can interconnect with other smart devices to form a comprehensive ecosystem. By collecting and analyzing vast amounts of occupancy data, businesses can optimize operational processes, offer personalized services, and uncover new commercial opportunities. In public spaces and work environments, occupancy sensors are not only useful for security monitoring but also for tracking people flow and maintaining social distancing, a feature that has become particularly important during the pandemic. Furthermore, these sensors can be applied in healthcare settings, such as monitoring hospital bed occupancy. Policy support and standard setting also provide a favorable environment for industry development. Many countries and regions have introduced policies encouraging energy saving and emission reduction, and promoting smart city construction. The gradual improvement of relevant standards will also facilitate the market's standardized development. In summary, the occupancy sensor industry is being propelled by a variety of factors and is expected to continue its robust growth trajectory, with applications becoming more extensive and diversified.
