A number of small startup companies have begun offering hardware and software
products for smart street lighting systems. In this challenging emerging
market, many of these startups have already failed, others have been acquired
by larger lighting companies, and a few are flourishing on their own. Some of
the larger control and lighting companies are developing their own products
for this market, which will put pressure on smaller companies that have not
yet secured a reliable revenue stream.
At the same time, new lamp options have recently become available for street
lights, most notably LEDs. The market for these lamps is also in a period of
transition. Dramatically falling costs and rising efficiencies of LED lamps
are driving up sales. Costs have fallen as much as 50% over the last 18 months
and are expected to continue falling for years to come. LED lamps allow for
better dimming control than standard street lights, and their electronics
allow for easy integration of control nodes. Rising sales of LED lamps will
therefore drive up the adoption of smart street lighting systems. Pike
Research expects the market for smart street lighting to grow steadily over
the remainder of this decade. Shipments of smart street lighting systems,
which will be under 200 worldwide for 2012, will reach more than 1,100 in
2020. Shipments of communications nodes, meanwhile, will rise from 550,000
this year to 4.8 million in 2020.
This Pike Research report analyzes the global market opportunity for lamp
upgrades and networked lighting controls across five categories of public

Smart Street Lighting - LEDs, Communications Equipment, and Network Management Software for Public Outdoor Lighting: Market Analysis and Forecasts published by Navigant Research (formerly Pike Research) in October 8, 2012. This report consists of 99 Pages and the price starts from US $ 3900.
Press Release
Shipments of LED-Based Street Lights Will Surpass 17 Million by 2020
October 17th, 2012
Global Information Inc. would like to present a new market research report, "Smart Street Lighting - LEDs, Communications Equipment, and Network Management Software for Public Outdoor Lighting: Market Analysis and Forecasts" by Navigant Research (formerly Pike Research).
The market for street lighting is in a period of dramatic transformation. New lamp options have recently become available for street lights, most notably light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and the advent of networked systems for central monitoring and control is enabling a range of intelligent management and energy savings options. According to a new report from Pike Research, a part of Navigants Energy Practice, unit shipments of LED lamps for street lights will rise from fewer than 3 million in 2012 to more than 17 million in 2020.
"LED lamps allow for better dimming control than standard street lights, and their electronics allow for easy integration of control nodes," says senior research analyst Eric Woods. "Rising sales of LED lamps will therefore drive up the adoption of smart street lighting systems, which promise to bring new levels of control and efficiency to the illumination of our cities, communities, highways, and public spaces."
At the moment, however, nearly all smart street lighting projects are still in a pilot phase, with only a handful of large-scale installations in place to date. LED street lights currently cost roughly four times as much as their high pressure sodium counterparts, placing them out of reach for many cash-strapped municipalities. The financial case for networked control systems can be even more difficult, according to the report. For this reason smart systems are being installed primarily to reduce maintenance costs, improve monitoring, and enhance public safety, rather than energy savings alone.
The report, "Smart Street Lighting", analyzes the global market opportunity for lamp upgrades and networked lighting controls across five categories of public outdoor lighting: highways, roads, parking lots, city parks, and sports stadiums. The report provides a comprehensive assessment of the demand drivers, obstacles, policy factors, and technology issues associated with the growing market for street lighting controls. Key industry players are profiled in depth and worldwide revenue and capacity forecasts, segmented by lamp type and region, extend through 2020.
