Market Growth Factors
Rising Demand for Energy-Efficient Lighting
Energy-efficient lighting involves utilizing fewer lights by replacing high-power-consumption lights such as incandescent, high-discharge, etc. This technique is also utilized in GPRS, GSM, and SCADA, among other control technologies. Additionally, it is substituting low-wattage equipment like electronic ballasts and fixtures for high-wattage lighting accessories. Energy-efficient lighting replaces traditional lighting (incandescent bulbs) with fluorescent, CFL, and LED lighting. This market may open new growth prospects due to the growing usage of LEDs in the automotive sector. The development of lighting technology increases energy efficiency and offers extra advantages like ambient lighting, ventilation, and warmth.
Growing Adoption of Smart Lighting Solutions
The ability of lights to link with IoT devices and generate a range of ambient lighting using only smartphones or tablets has expanded their popularity and demand in both commercial and residential spaces. They can also be programmed to turn on and off and track their energy consumption. The platform connection with Google Assistant, Amazon's Alexa, Apple's Siri, or Microsoft's Cortana can also provide voice control of smart lights. Therefore, it is anticipated that the demand for LED-based smart lights will increase throughout the projected period due to various government measures to encourage their use.
Market Restraining Factors
Challenges in Establishing Newer Manufacturing Hubs
Due to stringent government policies, which include rules and regulations relating to environmental measures, investors are having difficulty setting up newer light industrial centers in several countries. Before establishing a factory, investors or manufacturers encounter several other obstacles, including high capital costs, high investments in the R&D sector, inefficient raw material supply, inefficient logistics, and a lack of sophisticated manufacturing equipment. If there is a lack of skilled labor or a problem in recruiting and training employees, it can hinder the market's production capacity and overall growth. Hence, all of these elements may hamper the growth of the market in the coming years.
Type Outlook
By type, the market is classified into general lighting, automotive lighting, and back lighting. In 2022, the general lighting segment held the highest revenue share in the market. General lighting is divided into LED and traditional Lighting according to product segmentation. LED lighting will experience significant adoption during the anticipated period. Traditional lighting sources, such as CFLs, LFLs, and HID lights, have historically been employed in all application areas due to their low cost and ease of installation and will also be used in upcoming years.
Sales Channel Outlook
Based on the sales channel, the market is categorized into online, and offline. In 2022, the online segment acquired a substantial revenue share in the market. The online platform enables manufacturers and retailers of lighting equipment to connect with a global audience without the limitations of physical stores. Sales and brand awareness may rise as a result of this enhanced reach. Online shopping offers consumers the convenience of browsing and purchasing lighting products from the comfort of their homes. This convenience can encourage more people to investigate and buy electric lighting equipment, particularly those without access to physical stores.
Application Outlook
On the basis of application, the market is divided into residential, commercial and others. In 2022, the residential segment dominated the market with maximum revenue share. Future development of energy-efficient lighting with sophisticated power management systems, which reduce standby power usage, and environmentally friendly manufacturing processes are also potential for makers of electric lighting equipment. In this market, these factors combined to create a significant demand for illumination in the residential segment.
Regional Outlook
Region wise, the market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and LAMEA. In 2022, the Asia Pacific region led the market by generating the highest revenue share. The growth of the electric lighting equipment market in the Asia Pacific region is influenced by many variables. These include the rising demand for better and more effective lighting solutions, the abundance of LED package and chip companies, and the quick urbanization of nations like India, China, and Japan.
