Global Smart Pole Market – Industry Trends and Forecast to 2029

Market Analysis and Size

In recent years, smart pole has shown a considerable increase in demand across the globe and is predicted to continue to do so over the forecast period. Increased expenditures in smart city projects that complement the aesthetic of the city to solve transportation, communication, safety, and energy management with intelligent solutions have aided the market's growth. To advance the smart city programme, Tokyo Metropolitan Government stated in May 2020 that it would install 5G smart poles using NEC's smart street lighting technology. As a result, the increased smart city projects further increase demand for the smart pole, which is projected to aid the market growth.

Global Smart pole Market was valued at USD 15693.20 million in 2021 and is expected to reach USD 64392.47 million by 2029, registering a CAGR of 19.30% during the forecast period of 2022-2029.

Report Scope and Market Segmentation

Smart pole Market Dynamics

This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail as below:

Drivers

• High Demand of Smart pole 

The capacity to contain software controls, electronics and sensors that can help in sending and receiving data from the pole position to the operator location is a crucial factor driving smart pole demand around the world. Furthermore, smart poles contribute significantly to the energy-saving parameter as well as increased customer satisfaction, which have largely accelerated the market growth.

• Surging Environmental Concerns

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), each year, seven million people die as a result of illnesses related by poor air quality and pollution. Smart poles are critical in the fight against urban air pollution because they can track a range of environmental data such as fine particulate matter concentrations, temperature, and humidity to provide a complete picture of an area's overall air quality. Residents can also use smart poles to collect environmental data in order to decrease their exposure to air pollution, and city planners can use the information to help them make decisions that will improve urban air quality. This factor will therefore lead to increased market demand over the forecasted period.

• High Usage For Traffic Management

Moreover, as the use of personal and public transportation increases, city traffic becomes increasingly congested, putting pressure on local governments and corporations to improve traffic management. In addition, one of the specific reasons for the low quality of life in cities is traffic congestion. As a result, smart poles are gaining popularity in cities as a means of reducing traffic congestion and preventing accidents, as they may provide traffic management with the following features: traffic monitoring, traffic guiding, car monitoring and parking guidance. This further bolsters the demand for smart poles. Moreover, the smart poles' ability to reduce accidents and traffic jams, as well as the growing demand for energy-efficient streetlights, are all driving market growth.

Furthermore, the increase in disposable income along with the increase in the purchasing power among the consumers which further increases the demand for the market. The integration of air quality monitoring systems, security cameras, traffic management systems, wireless sensor networks, and transportation management systems in smart poles has also increased the market growth.

Opportunities

• Government Initiatives and Usage of Technologies

The expanding government initiatives for the creation of smart cities are estimated to generate lucrative opportunities for the market, which will further expand the smart pole market's growth rate in the future. Additionally, the expanding use of artificial Intelligence (AI) and internet of things (IoT) to improve the effectiveness of the system will also offer numerous growth opportunities within the market.

Restraints/Challenges

• High Cost of Technological Integration

One of the barriers to market expansion is the high cost of technological integration. Installing smart poles is significantly more expensive than installing regular street lights. As a result, countries struggling with low economic conditions are still lagging behind in adopting advanced technologies such as smart poles.

• Lack of Standardization

Also, the smart pole market deals with the lack of standardization of communication protocols which restricts the market growth. This factor is projected to pose as a challenge for the smart pole market over the forecast period.

Covid-19 Impact on Smart Pole Market

The smart pole market was immensely impacted by the outbreak of COVID-19. There was emergence of various challenges such as halt of various operations, stifling business growth, suspended activities among others, which largely affected the demand and supply, which brought several short-term and long-term consequences in the industry. The pandemic has resulted in a construction activity ban, as well as a scarcity of laborers and construction workers, according to the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) and the National Highways and Infrastructure Development Corp. Ltd (NHIDCL). These factors have largely hampered the market growth.

However, the situation is improving owing to decline in COVID cases worldwide and the market is picking up speed and will expand throughout the projection period. Therefore, the market is estimated to grow at a substantial pace post COVID-19.

Recent Developments

• In June 2020, The New York Power Authority and Signify have created a cooperation (NYPA). The two organisations will fund Smart Street Lighting NY as a result of their collaboration. Signify would offer linked lighting systems that would assist residents in New York's villages and cities in ways that go beyond pure illumination. With the combined vision of these two organisations, towns may improve light quality, save money on energy, and improve citizen safety and well-being by implementing cutting-edge technologies.
• In June 2020, EarthSense, manufacturer of ultra-compact, autonomous, teachable robots for crop breeders, scientists, and producers, has partnered with Siemens Mobility. The Zephyr air quality measurement system would be available for traffic management applications as a result of this agreement. End-to-end air quality can be checked and monitored in real-time by fully integrating the Zephyr air quality sensor with the traffic light controller and traffic management system. This will allow authorities to use Siemens Mobility's Stratos traffic management system to conduct useful and time-limited interventions, deploying methods based on verifiable pollution data and current air quality levels.
