Lighting as a Service Market: Current Analysis and Forecast (2021-2027)

LaaS (Light as a Service) is a two-year project co-funded by the UK-based agency name Innovate UK. Lighting as a service refers to a better version of lighting that enables the move from old-style lighting to smart lighting with the help of sensors and Internet of Things (IoT) technology, this reduces the cost and enhances the efficiency of energy without any investment from the end-user’s side. Factors that are positively influencing the market size of LaaS such as shifting preference toward sustainable lighting solutions and the emergence of LED as energy-efficient lighting technology. In addition, the soaring construction of smart cities across the emerging economies is also fueling the market size of lighting as a service.

Moreover, various Lighting as a Service provider, such as Renewable Partnerships, have been offering LED lighting solutions with no associated investment costs to reduce carbon dioxide emissions coupled with rapid advances in technology including IoT will further augment the demand for Lighting as a Service market.

The global Lighting as a Service market is expected to register a CAGR of more than 45 % throughout 2021-2027. Factors that are attracting the market size of lighting as a service end-user as it embodies no direct prices to the user, optimizes energy consumption, continued value saving, no maintenance required coupled with add on functions and systems such as knowledge assortment, inter-device communication, and remote management are propelling the market size of lighting as a service (LaaS).

Moreover, the lighting as a service market is displaying significant growth globally due to the increasing demand for energy-efficient lighting systems and support from several governments for phasing out traditional lighting systems with energy-efficient ones. However, a lack of awareness about the value of a service-oriented model of lighting is expected to hinder Lighting as a service market growth.

Koninklijke Philips N.V., General Electric Company, Lunera, Lutron Electronics Co, RCG Lighthouse, Cree Inc., SIB Lighting, Future Energy Solutions, Eaton Corporation, and Digital Lumens. are some of the key players in the market. Several M&As along with partnerships have been undertaken by these players to facilitate customers with hi-tech and innovative products/technologies.
