LED Lighting Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Product (Lamps, Luminaires), By Application (Indoor, Outdoor), By End-use (Commercial, Residential, Industrial), By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2023 - 2030

Report Overview

The global LED lighting market size was worth USD 70.94 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.0% from 2023 to 2030. Rising construction in both developing and developed countries, together with government laws limiting the use of inefficient lighting systems, are the primary factors anticipated to drive the market. LED lighting has a long lifespan, no flicker, and great illumination strength while consuming less energy. Additionally, LED manufacturers are focusing on including features like Wi-Fi, occupancy sensors, and daylighting because these attract customers and increase product sales, thus fostering market growth.

LED lights are often a better option when compared to alternative lighting options like incandescent, CFL, incandescent, and halogen lights, as they can operate with little energy input while delivering strong illumination. LEDs are extensively utilized in both indoor and outdoor situations. LEDs allow designers versatility in their designs and the durability to withstand frequent switching. The market is expected to expand as consumers become more aware of their benefits.

The American National Standards Institute, China Compulsory Certification, and International Electrotechnical Commission are a few significant regulatory bodies that manage product certification. Manufacturing after obtaining the required licenses permits to do business, offer services, and import and export products. Governments in both developed and developing economies are attempting to lower high energy usage.

They are doing this by upholding a number of quality laws that assist them in preserving consumer safety, managing energy use, and monitoring environmental issues. LED lighting is an energy-saving solution with a 50,000-hour lifespan and lower electricity use. As a result, it is anticipated that stringent government rules limiting the use of lighting that uses a lot of energy will promote the expansion of the market.

When used as overhead surgical illumination earlier, halogen lights bothered medical workers during procedures or examinations. Additionally, the examination room's 50 to 100 W halogen bulbs with the tiny surgical illumination produced a lot of heat and consumed too much electricity.

As a result, one factor anticipated to fuel the expansion of the target LED lighting market is manufacturers' strategy for combining LEDs in surgical illumination, exam lights, phototherapy, and endoscopy to enhance patient treatment experiences. The development of the LED lighting industry is also anticipated to be impacted by technological advancements in the medical device sector that will replace older or less efficient equipment.

The COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted the global economy. The demand for LED lighting was reduced as a result of rigorous suspensions and lockdowns imposed on construction sites. However, the second half of 2021 saw an increase in construction due to the introduction of new as well as upgrading projects, which contributed to the steady recovery of the industry for LED lighting.

Product Insights

Based on product type, the LED luminaires segment accounted for the highest market share of over 54% in 2022 and is poised to continue its dominance in the global market. All luminaires used in track lighting, high bays, troffers, and street lighting, are identified as LED lights. The primary driver of the segment's growth is the installation of new track lights and light poles as a result of the expanding commercial building space and developing smart city initiatives.

The LED lamp category is anticipated to develop at the highest CAGR during the forecast period due to the expanding use of LED lighting systems in the residential sector. LED lamps provide advantages, including increased energy efficiency and greater stability over substitutes like incandescent bulbs and CFLs. They come in a wide range of forms as well. Another factor that is projected to support the growth of the market is the government's policy for raising public awareness of LEDs and their potential to help reduce and manage energy usage.

Application Insights

The indoor segment in application type had the highest revenue share of over 67% in 2022. This is the result of an increase in the demand for high-intensity discharge and fluorescent bulb substitutes from supermarkets, shopping malls, and retail establishments. LED lighting generates less heat, and costs less than conventional lighting options. The segment's growth is also predicted to be aided by rising demand in public institutions like hospitals and schools.

The outdoor market is expected to expand moderately during the projected period. This is because infrastructure-related projects including highways, airports, and public areas are being expanded. The market for LED lights for outdoor applications is also expected to increase due to growing government initiatives to attain net-zero emissions by reducing energy use.

End-use Insights

The commercial end-use segment posted the highest market share of over 51% in 2022. The need for sophisticated lighting among exhibition, museum, and gallery owners for improved lighting applications is one of the driving forces behind the rapid growth of the commercial building industry around the world and is anticipated to promote market expansion. The demand for high-luminance LED lights is expanding predominantly owing to the requirements for office lighting to conform to government regulations and norms, which is boosting the expansion of the market.

The residential market is growing worldwide, which has increased demand for floor lamps, lamps, cabinet lights, etc. The LEDs used in domestic places have an efficiency of above 90-100 lumens per watt. Additionally, industrialized countries employ a lot of LEDs with an intensity of 110 lm/W -130 lm/W. It is therefore projected that quick advancements in LED efficiency will aid in the growth of the target market.

Regional Insights

Asia Pacific accounted for the largest revenue share of 43.61% in 2022. Over the forecast period, the market is expected to witness consistent growth. This is owing to rapidly developing infrastructure projects in emerging markets, which are anticipated to increase demand for LED lighting, coupled with the expanding energy-saving initiatives of regional governments. The rise of the regional market is predicted to be aided by the developing construction industries in China, Japan, and India, as well as the large number of manufacturers operating in these countries with a focus on launching new products.

The market's second-largest revenue share was accounted for by Europe. This market's expansion can be linked to the IT industry's booming construction sector, which is benefiting from increased investments and fresh infrastructure development initiatives. Over the course of the projection period, the architectural service market is anticipated to be stimulated by the gradual restart of the building of numerous data center facilities that had been temporarily suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
