Building Automation Market to be Worth $227.1 Billion by 2032

 

Meticulous Research^®—a leading global market research company, published a research report titled, ‘Building Automation Market by Offering (HVAC Systems, Security & Access Control Systems, Lighting Systems, Energy Management Systems), Technology (Wired, Wireless), Sector (Residential, Commercial), and Geography - Global Forecast to 2032.’

According to this latest publication from Meticulous Research^®, the global building automation market is projected to reach $227.1 billion by 2032, at a CAGR of 10.2% from 2025–2032. The growth of the building automation market is driven by the increasing deployment of security & surveillance systems in commercial & residential buildings, the integration of IoT technologies into building automation systems, the increasing demand for energy-efficient buildings, and the rising number of connected devices in buildings. However, the high cost of implementation restrains the growth of this market.

Furthermore, the proliferation of smart cities, increasing government initiatives to enhance energy efficiency in buildings, and increasing deployment of wireless technology in building automation systems are expected to generate growth opportunities for the stakeholders in this market. However, the lack of standardized communication protocols and the shortage of skilled professionals are major challenges impacting the growth of the building automation market.

The global building automation market is segmented by offering (HVAC systems, security & access control systems, energy management systems, water management systems, lighting systems, fire protection systems, facility management systems, building automation system services, other offerings), technology (wired technology, wireless technology (Zigbee, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, z-wave)), sector (residential, commercial, industrial). The study also evaluates industry competitors and analyzes the market at the regional and country levels.

Based on offering, the global building automation market is segmented into HVAC systems, security & access control systems, energy management systems, water management systems, lighting systems, fire protection systems, facility management systems, building automation system services, and other offerings. In 2025, the HVAC systems segment is expected to account for the largest share of above 30% of the global building automation market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the increasingly concerned about environmental impact, increasing urbanization, technological advancement in HVAC systems, and increasing implementation of stricter regulations by the government for air quality in commercial buildings. In July 2022, Fr. Sauter AG (Switzerland) launched IoT-capable actuators to enable autonomous or semi-autonomous control in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems for modernized buildings.

However, the security & access control systems segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The segment's growth is attributed to the advancements in biometric technologies, increasing security concerns in the commercial sector, and increasing deployment of security solutions by building owners to protect occupants, assets, and sensitive information. In March 2024, Johnson Controls International plc (Ireland) launched IQ Pro Hybrid Security Panel, a life safety and security device for intrusion protection in commercial buildings, large residential facilities, campuses, and K-12 markets.

Based on technology, the global building automation market is segmented into wired technology and wireless technology. In 2025, the wired technology segment is expected to account for the largest share of above 65% of the global building automation market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the growing demand for wired solutions for fire alarms and security control systems and changing consumer preference for stable and reliable wired standards for building automation systems. Wired connections provide significantly lower latency for applications requiring real-time data and immediate response, such as HVAC systems and building automation controls.

However, the wireless technology segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The segment's growth is attributed to the increasing demand for wireless technology to reduce installation time and cost, increasing adoption of cloud-based solutions, and increasing adoption of wireless technology for various applications such as lighting, security and access control, elevator management, and energy management in buildings.

Based on sector, the global building automation market is segmented into residential, commercial, and industrial. In 2025, the commercial segment is expected to account for the largest share of above 40% of the global building automation market. The large market share of this segment is attributed to the increasing government implementation of stricter regulations on energy efficiency in commercial buildings, advancements in sensor technology, cloud computing, and the Internet of Things (IoT), increasing building automation for cost savings and improve operational efficiency to enhanced tenant satisfaction, and increasing use of biometric technology for security and access controls in commercial buildings. In April 2024, 75F, Inc. (U.S.) launched a new range of innovative products and solutions to improve building efficiency, enhance indoor air quality, and reduce operating costs in commercial buildings.

However, the residential segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The segment's growth is attributed to the rising sense of home safety & security, the growing need for IoT security solutions in the residential sector, the increasing popularity of smart devices, and changing consumer preferences for a convenient and comfortable living experience. In March 2025, Hangzhou Hikvision Digital Technology Co., Ltd. (China) partnered with Can'nX (France) to integrate AI-enabled devices, such as cameras, into building systems and offer automation solutions for commercial and residential buildings.

Based on geography, the building automation market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. In 2025, North America is expected to account for the largest share of above 35% of the global building automation market. The market growth in North America is driven by the higher adoption rate for advanced technologies, the presence of established players in the region, the increasing adoption of smart devices for commercial and residential applications, and the increasing adoption of energy-efficient solutions for building management. North America is focusing on reducing its carbon footprint and building automation helps to optimize energy consumption. Government bodies in the region have implemented stricter regulations on energy efficiency in buildings. Market players are also focusing on offering automation solutions for energy efficiency and security applications. For instance, in April 2025, Johnson Controls International plc (Ireland) launched a Security Operations Centers (SOC) service in the North American market to create safer and more productive environments for commercial buildings.

However, Asia-Pacific is projected to record the highest CAGR of above 12% during the forecast period. The region’s growth is attributed to the surge in government initiatives to promote energy-efficient building systems, an increasing number of smart city projects, and increasing government investments in public infrastructure. The region is experiencing rapid urbanization with a surge in new buildings, opening new opportunities for integrating building automation systems. With a growing population and rising energy demands, government bodies across the region are prioritizing energy-efficient buildings.
