The led street light market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $17.28 billion in 2025 to $20.86 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increase in urban infrastructure development, rising need for energy efficient street lighting, growth in municipal modernization projects, replacement of traditional lighting systems, rising government initiatives for smart city projects.

The led street light market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $43.41 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising deployment of smart connected street lighting, increasing focus on reducing public energy consumption, growing adoption of wireless control technologies, rising emphasis on urban safety and visibility, increasing demand for adaptive street lighting solutions. Major trends in the forecast period include rising deployment of energy efficient led street lighting systems, increasing adoption of smart connected street lights with iot integration, advancement in automated manufacturing of led street lighting components, growth in digital monitoring and remote street light management platforms, increasing use of intelligent lighting for traffic and mobility optimization.

The growth of smart cities worldwide is propelling the LED street light market forward. Smart cities are defined as administrative regions that employ information and communication technology (ICT) to enhance operational efficiency and provide improved infrastructure for residents. LED streetlights, with their elegant design, contribute to reduced city energy consumption and enhanced public safety. These lights are a key component in smart cities, promoting energy efficiency through the use of ICT technologies, such as the Internet of Things (IoT). For instance, in April 2023, data from the World Bank, a U.S.-based international financial institution, indicated that approximately 4.4 billion people, or 56% of the global population, currently live in cities. By 2050, nearly 7 out of 10 individuals are expected to reside in urban areas, with the urban population projected to more than double from today’s figures. Therefore, the development of smart cities globally is driving the demand for LED street lights.

Prominent companies in the LED street light market are innovating by introducing new products such as solar-powered streetlights to maintain a competitive edge. A solar-powered streetlight is a lighting system that incorporates solar panels, batteries, LED lamps, and other components to offer illumination for outdoor areas and pathways. For example, in May 2023, AGC Inc., a Japanese glass manufacturing company, unveiled the ST57 solar LED streetlight. This lighting solution is sustainable and eco-friendly as it relies on solar energy. The ST57 boasts an extended discharge time, facilitated by its integrated smart control features, including a timer, PIR sensor, and microwave sensor. With an IP66 rating, the ST57 ensures protection against severe weather conditions. It is a comprehensive solar streetlight available in six different sizes (10W, 20W, 30W, 40W, 50W, and 60W), each offering various features and advantages.

In January 2023, Saylite, a provider of lighting products and solutions with a base in the United States, successfully acquired Vantage Lighting for an undisclosed sum. The objective of this acquisition is to expand Saylite's product and service portfolio, ensuring a more comprehensive range for its current customer base. Vantage Lighting, also based in the U.S., is a manufacturer specializing in LED lighting products designed for specifications.
