Number of IoT connections worldwide 2022-2033

The number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices worldwide is forecast to almost double from 15.9 billion in 2023 to more than 32.1 billion IoT devices in 2030. In 2033, the highest number of IoT devices will be found in China, with around 8 billion consumer devices. IoT devices are used in all types of industry verticals and consumer markets, with the consumer segment accounting for around 60 percent of all IoT or connected devices in 2023. This share is projected to stay at this level over the next ten years. Major verticals and use casesMajor industry verticals with currently more than 100 million connected IoT devices are electricity, gas, steam & A/C, water supply & waste management, retail & wholesale, transportation & storage, and government. Overall, the number of IoT devices across all industry verticals is forecast to grow to more than eight billion by 2033.Major use-casesThe most important use case for IoT devices in the consumer segment are consumer internet & media devices such as smartphones, where the number of IoT devices is forecast to grow to more than 17 billion by 2033. Other use cases with more than one billion IoT devices by 2033 are connected (autonomous) vehicles, IT infrastructure, asset tracking & monitoring, and smart grid.

全球物联网（IoT）设备数量预计将从2023年的159亿几乎翻倍至2030年的超过321亿台。到2033年，中国将拥有最多的物联网设备，预计约为80亿台消费设备。物联网设备被广泛应用于各类产业垂直领域和消费市场，其中消费领域占所有物联网或连接设备总数的约60%在2023年。预计这一份额在未来十年内将保持在这一水平。主要垂直领域与用例目前拥有超过1亿台连接物联网设备的重点产业垂直领域包括电力、燃气、蒸汽及空调、供水及污水处理、零售及批发、交通及仓储以及政府。总体而言，预计到2033年，所有产业垂直领域的物联网设备数量将增长至超过80亿台。主要用例在消费领域，物联网设备最重要的用例是消费互联网及媒体设备，如智能手机，预计到2033年物联网设备数量将增长至超过170亿台。到2033年，其他用例中物联网设备数量超过10亿的还包括连接（自动驾驶）汽车、IT基础设施、资产追踪与监控以及智能电网。
