High Brightness LED Market - By Application (Automotive, General Lighting, Backlighting, Mobile Device, Signals & Signage, and Others), By Distribution Channel (Offline, Online), Forecast 2024 – 2032

High Brightness LED Market Size

High Brightness LED Market was valued at over USD 33.1 billion in 2023 and is estimated to register a CAGR of over 9% between 2024 & 2032. The HB LED market has been expanding continuously due to the growing demand for efficient lighting systems. For sustainable economic growth, the world has had to embrace alternative sources of energy. In contrast to traditional sources such as incandescent light bulbs or fluorescent tubes, HB LEDs require less power yet emit either comparable or even more intense light than standard ones. This is supported by legislation that requires governments to conserve minimum energy and limit greenhouse gas emissions.
 

Regulations and schemes established by various governments are a major factor driving growth in the High Brightness LED (HB LED) market. Governments globally have also implemented regulations to cut down on energy use and greenhouse gases by promoting energy-efficient lighting technologies. One notable provision is phasing out non-beneficial lighting systems such as incandescent bulbs while others include minimum efficiency requirements for lighting products. In addition, various governments offer incentives or tax cuts or even subsidies to popularize the use of high brightness LEDs and other energy-efficient light systems.
 

Heat management is a major challenge in the High Brightness LED (HB LED) market. HB LEDs produce a high amount of heat due to the high-power densities of the semiconductor junctions during their operation. In the presence of insufficient dissipation, thermal stress occurs, which deteriorates the performance and reliability of the LEDs with time.
 

High Brightness LED Market Trends

Requirements for displays and signage are progressively growing as a significant trend in the market for High Brightness LED (HB LED). Higher light output, power efficiency and longer lifetime make high-brightness LEDs increasingly popular in digital signage, outdoor advertising & large format displays. The recent digitalization and the need for attractive pictures or visuals have made firms and institutions purchase improved quality LED panels that will increase their number of customers. Such characteristics like bright colors, high contrast ratio and outdoor visibility bring out a suitable element for promotional displays in terms of High brightness LEDs.
 

Efforts dedicated toward heat control in the HB LED market keep up at the pace as manufacturers strive to invent and develop better thermal management solutions. The need for more bright and powerful LEDs has resulted in efficient dissipation of heat produced during operation. The market is also witnessing the creation of newfangled ideas in the area of improved conductivity and dispersing of energy through advanced heat sink materials and designs. In addition, liquid cooling and phase change materials are some of the creative methods being looked at by manufacturers when managing heat in high-power LED applications.
 

High Brightness LED Market Analysis

Based on application, the market is segmented into automotive, general lighting, backlighting, mobile device, signals & signage, & others. The general lighting segment held the largest market share of over 33% in 2023. The demand for HB LEDs for general lighting has increased due to the popularity of energy-saving LED bulbs that have taken over from traditional incandescent and fluorescent lamps. Moreover, they are more productive than previous sources of light and their lifespan is longer hence enabling them to last long in any environment. Similarly, they are also brighter producing higher brightness per watt thus making them best suited for use in most outdoor/indoor lighting systems. This trend is due to a need to minimize the cost of electrical bills through energy saving which makes it necessary to employ LED chips in retrofitting process as well as during new installations such as those targeting high bay illumination or any other space lighting applications.
 

Based on power, the market is segmented into offline and online. The offline segment is anticipated to register a CAGR of over 8% from 2024 to 2032. Some examples of traditional retail outlets include brick-and-mortar stores, specialty lighting shops and wholesalers. Notwithstanding the increasing popularity of online distribution channels, offline sales still control the HB LED market with a bias towards regions having less developed e-commerce infrastructure or where people still prefer to touch products before paying for them. It is through personal interactions that on-ground customers get firsthand experience, assistance from staff in the outlet and the possibility of purchasing instantly. Additionally, there are also other amenities offered by product sellers such as setting it up, maintaining it after purchase and serving as a place where clients can go for consultations thus accommodating those that want everything at one place.
 

North America accounted for a significant share of the global high brightness LED market in 2023 with a market share of over 38%. In response to the escalating energy costs and ecological concerns, the rate of adopting power-saving lighting solutions is also rising. Government emphasis on sustainable development and energy efficiency has also encouraged the use of these technologies. Technological advancements in high brightness LEDs including better luminous efficacy and higher color rendering have further increased the regional market size. The rise of IoT-enabled smart lights as well as home automation systems has led to an increased demand for HB LEDs used in residential, commercial & industrial applications.
