Global Smart Cities Market- Overview
A smart city is an urban area equipped with modern technology, such as sensors to collect data, voice activation methods, etc. Following the collection of data, the information collected is used to improve operations across the city. A smart city uses the information for efficiently managing water-supply networks, road traffic, transportation systems, power plants, utilities, information systems, and much more. Governments are deploying electronic and digital technologies to transform communities and cities into smart cities in various countries.
Global Smart Cities Market Forecast and Trends
Growth Drivers
Growing Energy Consumption and Need for Sustainability
The energy consumption of urban cities is increasing at a high rate. Cities need a constant and uninterrupted power supply to keep their operations going. According to UN-Habitat, cities consume around 75% of the global primary energy and emit around 50 to 60% of the world’s total greenhouse gases. As a result, several countries are investing heavily in smart city development to achieve net-zero carbon emissions and reduce their energy consumption. This factor is anticipated to drive the global smart cities market in the forecast period.
Rising Government Initiatives and Public-Private Partnerships
Many governments are investing significant amounts and laying out well-structured plans to establish smart cities in their regions. They are joining hands with private partners and local government, and authorities to promote the adoption of advanced technologies like IoT and AI. One example is the Amsterdam smart city initiative, which is conducting 170+ projects that have been developed collaboratively by residents, government, and businesses, which are promoting the use of wireless devices for connecting networks.
Restraints
High Cost of Smart City Implementation
The implementation of smart city projects and models is not only expensive but is also a complicated process. The Smart America Organization estimates that city governments around the world will invest approximately USD 41 trillion to improve their infrastructure and meet smart city standards over the next twenty years. However, the establishment of a smart city requires a public-private model. In this race of smart cities, the middle- and low-income countries with limited financial resources will be left behind. This factor acts as a major restraining factor for growth.
Impact of COVID-19 on Global Smart Cities Market
The sudden outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic halted the growth of the global smart cities market during the initial phase. Various healthcare systems were under extreme strain, with an increasing number of COVID-19 patients. Therefore, the government and healthcare authorities prioritized patient management and resource fulfillment for COVID-19 treatment. Consequently, smart cities' development and investment activities were restricted, negatively impacting the market's growth. However, this market is, expected to flourish in the post-COVID-19 period due to the benefits that smart healthcare systems can bring to the table.
Global Smart Cities Market - By Smart Transportation
Based on smart transportations, the global smart cities market is segmented into smart ticketing, traffic management, passenger information, connected logistics, and other solutions, services, and types. Among these, the traffic management segment accounts for the largest market share. Devices such as IoT sensors collect real-time data of vehicles and drivers and their locations. In this way, the authorities are able to manage traffic more efficiently, especially during peak traffic hours, and minimize the chances of road accidents. Smart ticketing represents another substantial share of the market.
Global Smart Cities Market - By Smart Utilities
Based on smart utilities, the global smart cities market is segmented into advanced metering infrastructure, distribution management system, substation automation, other solutions, services, and types. Among these, the advanced metering infrastructure segment accounts for the largest market share because of the degrading water levels, especially in urban cities. Governments are investing heavily in deploying advanced metering infrastructure to collect data on water use in real-time and improve energy efficiency, which can prove cost-effective in the long run.
Global Smart Cities Market - Regional Insights
North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and Middle-East & Africa make up the global smart cities market. Among these regions, Europe dominates with the largest market share. The high concentration of major smart cities in Amsterdam, London, Copenhagen, Zürich, etc., is what makes this region the world leader in smart cities. Furthermore, the European Union is significantly investing in its smart cities program. London, Lisbon, Milan, Bordeaux, Burgas, and Warsaw recently received an investment of £250 million (approx USD 284.3 million) for promoting carbon reduction and improving service delivery as a part of the Sharing Cities program.
