In addition, economic activity in Southeast Asia performed well, offsetting a severe decline in market demand in China.

In the second half of 2022, with the successive introduction of stimulus policies, market demand will improve in the fourth quarter. Based on comprehensive analysis, under the background of high inflation, the prices of LED lighting products are firm. TrendForce has revised down the global LED lighting market size in 2022 to US$64.96 billion (+0.5%YoY). (Note: Since 2H21, the market size of LED lighting covers both brand and white-label markets).

Looking forward to the future, the future lighting industry will pay more attention to the light quality of products (such as high luminous efficiency, high color rendering, R9 value and color tolerance), human-induced healthy lighting and intelligence. Therefore, TrendForce estimates that the global LED lighting industry in 2026 The market size is 78.36 billion US dollars, and the compound growth rate from 2021 to 2026 is 3.9% (Note: From 2H21, the lighting market scale covers the brand and white-label market).

LED smart street light market

In the first half of 2022, although the LED street light construction project has slowed down due to the epidemic and the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, but with the release of favorable policies in the second half of the year, under the low base period, there will be an opportunity to grow by 7% to 840 million throughout the year dollars. In the future of smart city construction and development, it is expected that a new round of renovations will begin in 2023.

In terms of communication protocols, according to the latest data from TrendForce, in 2021, the adoption rate of PLC will account for about 76.6%, followed by ZigBee, accounting for about 13.3%. NB-IoT has just reached maturity in application and is growing rapidly. Due to its advantages of wide coverage through network infrastructure, low power consumption and low construction cost, there is a development trend to replace ZigBee, which currently dominates smart street light control. 7.0% market share. In addition, the application proportion of 4G transmission communication technology in smart street lamps has gradually increased.

LED plant lighting market

In the past two years, the LED plant lighting market has experienced rapid growth in response to the North American cannabis market. However, from the second half of 2021, the market demand has begun to weaken due to the obstruction of the supply chain and the crackdown on illegal cannabis cultivation in North America. In 2022, affected by the slowdown in the legalization of cannabis in North America and the sharp decline in the Chinese market, the growth rate of the plant lighting market will continue to slow down. However, in response to the increased demand for LED equipment replacement in greenhouses in Europe, and the price of lighting products is stable. , the estimated market size is 1.79 billion US dollars, with an annual growth of 6.6%.

Looking into the future, in the context of food safety and global climate change, smart agriculture is increasingly on the agenda of various governments, and the legalization of cannabis continues to advance, and the market demand for LED plant lighting will maintain a steady growth trend in the future, TrendForce estimates.

It is worth noting that the increase in merger and acquisition activities of leading companies, coupled with the optimization of product mix, is expected to It is estimated that the total lighting revenue growth of the top 10 lighting manufacturers is higher than 3%. In 2022, the conflict between Russia and Ukraine will lead to high energy costs, and the increasing demand for LED energy saving will speed up the replacement of traditional lighting products.

Many lighting manufacturers gradually provide customers with a healthier, smarter and more convenient lighting experience with professional solutions of "lighting products" + "digital systems", and at the same time pay attention to the niche application market with high gross profit margin, which will be the driving force for lighting manufacturers. Continued driver of revenue growth.（Source: ledinside）
