The outdoor lighting market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $15.13 billion in 2025 to $16.24 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to early installation in public streets and highways, adoption in parks and stadiums, growth in commercial exterior lighting, development of decorative and architectural lighting, increasing municipal focus on safety lighting.
The outdoor lighting market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $21.45 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing demand for connected outdoor lighting, expansion of energy-efficient urban lighting projects, rising smart city adoption, growth in automated lighting controls, development of advanced monitoring and maintenance platforms. Major trends in the forecast period include expansion of efficient smart outdoor illumination solutions, adoption of IoT-driven lighting infrastructure, development of cloud-enabled lighting management systems, integration of automated outdoor illumination controls, advancement of adaptive smart lighting networks.
The outdoor lighting market is expected to experience growth with the increasing demand for solar lighting. Solar lighting harnesses solar energy for illumination, offering energy-efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally sustainable solutions. The versatility of solar lighting is reshaping outdoor illumination preferences. According to a report by the International Energy Agency in July 2023, solar photovoltaic (PV) generation witnessed a significant increase, reaching almost 1,300 terawatt-hours in 2022. Projections indicate that solar PV's installed power capacity is poised to surpass coal by 2027, becoming the world's largest power capacity source. The rising demand for solar lighting is, therefore, a key driver for the growth of the outdoor lighting market.
Major companies in the outdoor lighting market are also focusing on LED outdoor lights. LED outdoor lights are energy-efficient fixtures utilizing light-emitting diodes for exterior applications. In August 2023, ETi Solid State Lighting Inc. launched an Outdoor Collection featuring a range of LED luminaires. The Slim Canopy luminaire, VersaArea LED Area Light, VersaFloods Flood Lights, and VersaPak Adjustable Wall Pack are part of this collection, offering versatility and efficiency in various outdoor lighting applications.
In September 2023, Advanced Lighting Technologies, LLC (ADLT), a US-based lighting solutions provider, acquired Cree Lighting Inc. for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition is intended to broaden ADLT's portfolio in the advanced lighting market and bolster its position in delivering innovative lighting solutions across various industries. By capitalizing on Cree Lighting’s expertise, ADLT plans to enhance its offerings in the energy-efficient and sustainable lighting sectors. Cree Lighting Inc. is a US-based company that specializes in LED lighting technology.
