Solid-state lighting (SSL) refers to a lighting technology employing solid-state semiconductor devices for light generation. It has revolutionized the lighting sector by offering energy-efficient, durable, and versatile lighting solutions across various applications. This technology consumes less energy, thereby reducing energy costs and minimizing environmental impact.
The primary forms of solid-state lighting include light-emitting diodes (LED), organic light-emitting diodes (OLED), and polymer light-emitting diodes (PLED). LED lighting, utilizing semiconductors to produce light, stands out for its energy efficiency and longevity, making it suitable for diverse applications like residential, industrial, and commercial lighting. These applications encompass both new installations and retrofits for indoor and outdoor settings, as well as specialized lighting needs across sectors such as healthcare, transportation, and more.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
Tariffs on semiconductor components, lighting modules, and electronic drivers have raised manufacturing and procurement costs for solid-state lighting systems, affecting pricing across residential, commercial, and industrial segments. Regions heavily dependent on imports, particularly Asia Pacific and North America, face delays and cost fluctuations in LED, OLED, and specialty lighting supply chains. Despite the challenges, tariffs are encouraging localized production, stimulating innovation in energy efficient lighting technologies, and reducing long term reliance on foreign components.

This solid state lighting market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The solid state lighting market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $49.32 billion in 2025 to $54.46 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to early transition from incandescent to led lighting, government energy efficiency mandates, rising demand for long lasting lighting solutions, growth in commercial and industrial lighting applications, advancements in semiconductor lighting materials.
The solid state lighting market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $76.88 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.0%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing adoption of smart lighting controls, rising integration of lighting with iot ecosystems, expansion of oled and flexible lighting formats, growing focus on sustainable lighting infrastructure, technological progress in high efficiency lighting modules. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing shift toward energy efficient led solutions, growing adoption of oled and pled technologies, rising demand for smart and connected lighting systems, expansion of advanced specialty lighting applications, advancements in high-brightness semiconductor lighting devices.
The solid-state lighting market's future growth is expected to be driven by the increasing demand for energy-efficient lighting. Energy-efficient lighting refers to lighting systems that consume less energy while providing the same level of illumination as traditional solutions. This type of lighting contributes to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and mitigating climate change by lowering electricity consumption. LED technology, a key component of solid-state lighting, offers higher energy efficiency compared to traditional lighting sources. This has led both residential and commercial customers to adopt solid-state lighting solutions to meet regulatory requirements and reduce energy usage. For example, in April 2025, according to the study Eclairage public en, a France-based dedicated power supply network for public lighting, the share of LED-equipped public-lighting fixtures in France grew from 29.8% at the end of 2022 to 38.9% at the end of 2023. Therefore, the rising demand for energy-efficient lighting is fueling the growth of the solid-state lighting market.
Leading companies in the solid-state lighting market are concentrating on material, design, and manufacturing innovations to develop more efficient LED technologies, such as chip-scale LEDs. These advancements aim to provide better lighting environments and expand market reach and sales opportunities. Chip-scale LEDs are a type of white LED package designed to achieve horizontal light distribution, addressing issues like uneven emitting surfaces and inadequate illumination patterns found in standard LED fixtures. For instance, in January 2024, Nichia Corporation introduced NFSWL11A-D6, a product that helps create thinner and lighter lighting fixtures, saving resources on design and building materials. Moreover, the soft, low-glare light produced by these LEDs enhances surroundings and opens up new design possibilities while also contributing to resource conservation and building safety.
In September 2024, Goldensea, a China-based professional lighting manufacturer, acquired SGM Light A/S for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition enables SGM to continue operating under its established brand while benefiting from Goldensea's investment and strategic support. SGM Light A/S is a Denmark-based provider of solid-state lighting solutions.
