The Global Solid-State and Other Energy-Efficient Lighting Market is valued approximately at USD 193.85 billion in 2024 and is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of more than 5.40% over the forecast period 2025-2035. The lighting industry is undergoing a paradigm shift driven by the global pursuit of energy efficiency and sustainability. Solid-state lighting (SSL), including LEDs and OLEDs, has emerged as a cornerstone technology in reducing electricity consumption and carbon emissions. These lighting systems are rapidly replacing traditional incandescent and fluorescent systems due to their superior lifespan, efficiency, and versatility. Energy-efficient lighting solutions are now indispensable across residential, commercial, and industrial sectors as governments around the world impose stringent energy codes and carbon reduction targets. Technological advancements, urbanization, and expanding smart infrastructure are further propelling market growth, while increasing investments in renewable energy integration and smart city initiatives continue to enhance adoption rates.
The growing emphasis on energy conservation and the urgent need to minimize greenhouse gas emissions are driving robust demand for energy-efficient lighting systems worldwide. Countries are phasing out inefficient lighting technologies through regulatory frameworks and incentive-based programs, stimulating large-scale replacement with solid-state lighting. For instance, global initiatives promoting net-zero carbon targets have compelled industries and governments alike to transition toward LED-based systems. Moreover, advancements in materials science, such as quantum dots and organic compounds, are leading to more efficient, tunable, and visually appealing lighting solutions. However, high initial costs of implementation, along with challenges in retrofitting legacy systems, pose moderate constraints. Nevertheless, the long-term operational savings, low maintenance requirements, and decreasing component costs continue to make energy-efficient lighting an attractive investment.

Solid-State Lighting is Expected to Dominate the Market
Solid-state lighting (SSL) remains the dominant technology segment in the global market, accounting for the majority of revenue share. This dominance is primarily attributed to the rapid adoption of LED lighting in both new and retrofit installations, supported by governmental policies that incentivize energy savings. SSL systems offer enhanced energy efficiency, superior light quality, and reduced maintenance costs compared to conventional HID and fluorescent lighting technologies. Furthermore, the proliferation of smart lighting systems-integrating IoT and sensor-based controls-has accelerated the shift toward SSL. These technologies enable real-time monitoring, adaptive illumination, and intelligent energy management, which are critical to sustainable infrastructure development. As urbanization intensifies and digitalization penetrates the lighting value chain, SSL technology is expected to consolidate its leadership position, shaping the next generation of global lighting solutions.
Hardware Offering Leads in Revenue Contribution
In terms of offerings, the hardware segment dominates the global solid-state and energy-efficient lighting market, contributing the highest revenue share. This includes components such as luminaires, bulbs, drivers, and control systems that form the physical backbone of lighting infrastructure. As large-scale retrofitting projects and smart city initiatives continue to expand, the demand for advanced lighting hardware is growing exponentially. While hardware remains the revenue leader, software and service components are becoming increasingly vital as industries shift toward connected, data-driven ecosystems. Software platforms enable smart lighting controls, predictive maintenance, and energy optimization, while service models ensure lifecycle management and performance monitoring. Together, these trends signal a market evolution where hardware dominance is reinforced by digital intelligence and service integration.
