SMD LEDs used in lighting tubes are known for their high energy efficiency. They consume significantly less energy compared to traditional lighting technologies, leading to lower electricity bills and reduced energy consumption. The potential impact of the widespread use of LED lighting on energy savings in the US is significant. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that by 2035, LED technology will be used in the majority of lighting installations and that the yearly energy savings from LED lighting might reach 569 TWh, which is equivalent to the energy output of more than 92 1,000 MW power plants. According to the EIA, the percentage of homes that use LEDs as their primary source of lighting rose from 4% in 2015 to 54% in 2023.

By Application-Segment Analysis

The Indoor segment accounted for the largest share of 55% in the global LED lighting market in 2023. As stated by the Ujala Agency in India, as of 2021, LED sales reached a critical milestone, achieving a record number of sales of more than 1 billion units, including lamps such as bulbs, tubes, modules and so on and luminaires. This has been massively surpassed by 2023 with 2.4 billion units being sold. The deployment of LEDs in homes and businesses is progressing, and sales of LEDs have surpassed those of fluorescent lamps. Adding to this, around 90% of lighting products are analyzed to be LED lighting by 2030. In May 2022, A new SMD downlight for indoor shops was unveiled by Syska LED. The Syska LED Recessed SMD Downlight is an excellent indoor lighting option that can be utilized in a variety of settings, including offices, showrooms, homes, malls, and stores.

By End User - Segment Analysis

The residential segment held the largest share of 58% of the global LED lighting market in 2023. Growing urbanization in developing nations like China, India, and Brazil is anticipated to propel the need for residential LED lighting in the approaching years due to rising income levels and shifting consumer preferences. Furthermore, driving the industry is the availability of attractive and reasonably priced lights. The central government of India plans to construct 20 million affordable homes in urban areas nationwide by 2022 as part of the massive Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) scheme of the Union Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs. This ambitious plan is expected to significantly boost the residential sector, according to IBEF. Based on updated data from the US Department of Home and Urban Development and the US Census Bureau, privately-owned home starts reached 1,769,000 in February 2022, 6.8% more than the revised estimate of 1,657,000 in January. Compared to 1,447,000 home starts in February 2021, there was a 22.3% rise in February 2022. Therefore, it is anticipated that the market for residential LED lighting will rise owing to the growing construction of new buildings.

Stringent government regulations regarding automobiles and auto parts are regulated through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Such regulations are related to improving vehicle safety standards as well as reducing vehicle emissions. Such factors have been creating high deployments of electric vehicles in the country that use LED lights and in turn, boosting its market growth.

Drivers – LED lighting

  • Attractive Features Like As Eco-Friendliness, Energy Efficiency, And High Durability Are Expected To Propel The Worldwide LED Lighting Market Forward:

LED lighting has several advantages, including flexible technology, low maintenance, a variety of colors, long-term endurance, and more. As a result of these characteristics, LED lighting is becoming more popular in a variety of applications. For example, the typical estimated lifespan of an LED light bulb is 50,000 hours, compared to 10,000 hours and 1,200 hours for fluorescent and incandescent light bulbs, respectively. Furthermore, an average LED lamp uses 50% less energy than a fluorescent lamp and 80% less energy than an incandescent lamp. The increased popularity of LED lights in commercial and domestic applications is due to improved LED product performance. As a result, the worldwide LED lighting market is expanding.

LED prices have dropped, allowing them to be used in a wide range of applications, including residential, commercial, and industrial. This dramatic reduction in LED prices can be ascribed to technological developments, which have resulted in increased life expectancy and operating efficiency, propelling the LED lighting market. Furthermore, energy consumption in lighting applications is predicted to decrease with the development of energy-efficient lighting systems. The energy consumed by lighting in the United States, for example, is expected to decline by 40–60% by 2030 as compared to 2015, according to cautious estimates from the US Department of Energy.

  • Adoption of Smart Lighting to propel the market growth

With a rising number of businesses embracing smart lighting solutions, smart lighting has become a prominent trend in the market. These lighting solutions can detect people's movement and the number of people in the nearby area and alter the light accordingly. These smart lighting systems, when combined with LEDs, save roughly 30% on electricity. Furthermore, as part of ongoing "Smart City" programs, governments in a number of nations are aggressively promoting the use of smart street lighting. In India, for example, Naya Raipur (the new capital of Chhattisgarh) has erected one of the world's most advanced linked lighting systems that can be remotely monitored in 2022. 

Challenges – LED lighting

  • High Cost Is A Constraint To The Market:

Unlike traditional light sources such as incandescent bulbs, LEDs lack efficient self-cooling mechanisms, necessitating additional heatsinks or cooling methods to prevent overheating. While materials with high thermal conductivity are commonly used to disperse heat, they come with a considerable cost and weight premium. Transportation and material expenses contribute to the overall price escalation of both light sources and their fixtures. Moreover, LED drivers are often designed as general-purpose circuitry, increasing the overall cost. The fluctuating cost of white light LEDs adds complexity, requiring designers to exercise caution when selecting LEDs for specific lighting applications.
