The Global Internet of Things (IoT) in Energy Market is valued approximately at USD 1.31 billion in 2024 and is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of more than 12.30% over the forecast period 2025-2035. The Internet of Things (IoT) in the energy sector has emerged as one of the most transformative forces in modern industrial evolution, enabling real-time intelligence, automation, and operational efficiency across every stage of the energy value chain. By interconnecting sensors, smart devices, and analytical systems, IoT facilitates the seamless monitoring, control, and optimization of assets, from oil rigs to smart grids. The global energy industry is experiencing a structural shift toward digitalization, driven by escalating energy demands, sustainability targets, and the pressing need for operational transparency. This shift is further catalyzed by the rising adoption of data-driven technologies and predictive analytics, which empower operators to improve asset performance, enhance safety standards, and minimize downtime. As companies move to modernize infrastructure, IoT solutions have become the cornerstone for achieving energy efficiency and intelligent decision-making across complex and distributed systems.
The rapid surge in digital transformation initiatives across oil & gas, coal mining, and power generation sectors has significantly accelerated the demand for IoT-driven energy management solutions. These systems allow enterprises to monitor energy consumption patterns, predict equipment failures, and optimize field operations with unprecedented precision. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), global energy investment reached over USD 2.8 trillion in 2023, with more than USD 700 billion directed toward digital and grid modernization efforts. Such figures underscore the industry's pivot toward integrating connected technologies to enhance productivity and reduce operational inefficiencies. Furthermore, growing concerns about climate change and the need for sustainable resource utilization are motivating both private and public entities to deploy IoT systems that facilitate real-time environmental monitoring, emission control, and predictive maintenance. However, challenges related to data security, interoperability, and high initial deployment costs remain critical barriers. Despite this, the expansion of cloud computing, edge analytics, and 5G connectivity is expected to unlock new avenues for IoT adoption in the energy landscape over the coming decade.

- Solutions Segment Expected to Dominate the Market
- Among components, the solution segment is anticipated to dominate the global IoT in energy market, holding the largest market share through the forecast period. IoT solutions-comprising asset management platforms, predictive maintenance software, and real-time monitoring systems-have become indispensable tools for optimizing energy operations. They enable firms to derive actionable insights from vast datasets generated across facilities, allowing predictive actions rather than reactive responses. This capability not only enhances operational uptime but also drives measurable reductions in energy waste and maintenance costs. As digital maturity continues to expand across the energy ecosystem, companies are increasingly integrating IoT platforms into their existing IT frameworks to ensure cross-functional visibility and enhanced decision-making. Meanwhile, the services segment-covering system integration, consulting, and maintenance-is expected to witness rapid growth due to increasing demand for customized IoT deployments and managed service models that reduce the complexity of in-house digital transformation.
- Oil & Gas Segment Leads in Revenue Contribution
- The oil & gas sector remains the leading application segment, accounting for the highest revenue share in 2024. The industry has been one of the earliest and most significant adopters of IoT technologies, leveraging them for pipeline monitoring, remote asset tracking, predictive maintenance, and real-time production optimization. Through the use of connected sensors and intelligent analytics, energy companies can identify potential equipment failures, reduce unplanned downtime, and improve safety outcomes in hazardous environments. The integration of IoT with AI and machine learning has also enabled advanced capabilities such as predictive drilling, reservoir modeling, and automated fleet management. In contrast, the coal mining segment, while smaller in current share, is poised for steady growth as mining operations increasingly turn toward IoT-enabled safety systems, automated machinery, and energy-efficient resource management. Together, these developments signal a broader trend toward digitized and connected energy production systems designed for resilience, sustainability, and profitability.
- The key regions considered for the Global Internet of Things (IoT) in Energy Market study include North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. North America currently dominates the market, driven by a mature digital infrastructure, widespread adoption of smart energy technologies, and strong investment in oil & gas digitalization initiatives. The U.S. in particular leads in IoT implementation across utilities and energy enterprises, supported by government initiatives promoting smart grid innovation and clean energy management. Europe follows closely, with stringent carbon regulations and the Green Deal framework compelling energy companies to integrate IoT for sustainability monitoring and emission reduction. Meanwhile, the Asia Pacific region is projected to witness the fastest growth through 2035, fueled by rapid industrialization, increasing energy consumption, and substantial investments in renewable energy and smart city projects across China, India, and Japan. The region's aggressive push toward automation and real-time monitoring in coal and power sectors positions it as the next frontier for IoT-driven energy transformation.
