Solar Lights Market Set to Surge to USD 24.75 Billion by 2032; Forecast CAGR of 10.9% from 2025 to 2032

The solar lights market comprises lighting products that convert solar energy into electricity via photovoltaic (PV) modules, store energy in batteries, and deliver illumination through LED or other light sources. These systems are deployed across residential, commercial, industrial, highway/street-lighting and off-grid/remote applications.

At USD 10.82 billion in 2025, the market is already enjoying healthy momentum. Over the next seven years, the market value is expected to more than double, reaching USD 24.75 billion by 2032. This mid-double-digit growth rate reflects the central role solar lighting is playing in the transition toward clean, decentralized lighting infrastructure.

A key factor in this growth is the increasing deployment of outdoor solar lights (street lights, garden lights, security lights) that require little or no grid connectivity. These systems are especially attractive in developing regions with limited or unreliable grid access, as well as in urban settings pursuing "smart-city" lighting solutions that combine solar with LED, motion sensors and remote control.

Market Dynamics
Drivers:

Rising demand for renewable and energy-efficient lighting - With governments and corporations targeting carbon-reduction goals, solar lighting provides a low-maintenance, off-grid or grid-independent solution for outdoor illumination.

Declining costs of solar PV modules & batteries - Advances in manufacturing, economies of scale and improved battery storage technologies have reduced total cost of ownership, accelerating adoption.

Infrastructure expansion in emerging markets - Rural electrification programmes and deployment of smart street lighting in Asia-Pacific, Latin America and Africa are significant catalysts.

Favourable regulatory and subsidy environment - Incentives, tax credits, and public-private partnerships are making solar lighting investments more accessible.

Restraints:

High upfront installation cost - Despite falling component prices, initial capital expenditure remains a barrier in cost-sensitive regions.

Dependence on sunlight and battery backup - In regions with low solar insolation or frequent shading, performance and reliability may be compromised.

Competition from conventional grid-connected lighting - In urban grids with stable electricity, solar lighting must offer compelling value-add (maintenance reduction, resilience) to compete.

Segmentation Highlights
By Light Source: The LED segment dominates due to superior energy efficiency, long lifespan and falling LED costs.

By Panel Type: Monocrystalline and polycrystalline panels remain mainstream; advanced amorphous technologies are emerging for niche uses.

By Grid Type: Off-grid installations have historically led due to their suitability in remote locations; hybrid and on-grid systems are gaining traction where grid backup or augmentation is needed.

By Application:

Highways & roadways remain a leading application given the strong demand for outdoor public lighting in both urban and rural settings.

Residential and commercial applications are increasing as innovations enable solar lighting in gardens, facades, campuses and smart-building ecosystems.

By Region: Asia-Pacific leads in volume given its populous emerging economies, heavy infrastructure rollout and strong solar resources. North America and Europe show steady growth driven by retrofit demand and smart-city programmes.

Regional Insights
Asia-Pacific: Holding the largest share of the global market, the region benefits from large rural populations, aggressive renewable-energy targets and government support for solar infrastructure.

North America: Growth in retrofit street-lighting projects, rising utility-scale solar installations and incentives for smart-lighting systems propel the region.

Europe: The push for decarbonisation in EU countries, along with refurbishment of public lighting in older cities, sustains steady demand.

Latin America & MEA: Emerging markets with off-grid or weak-grid scenarios offer major growth potential for solar lighting manufacturers and service providers.

Competitive Landscape
The solar lights market is moderately consolidated with a mix of established lighting-OEMs and emerging specialist solar-lighting players. Key industry participants invest heavily in R&D, partnerships and distribution expansion to capture share in this fast-evolving sector. Major approaches include:

Expanding product portfolios to include integrated solar-LED modules, motion-sensing systems, remote-connectivity and smart controls.

Geographic expansion into high-growth regions such as India, Southeast Asia, Africa and Latin America.

Forming strategic alliances with utilities, municipalities and infrastructure OEMs for large-scale public-lighting contracts.

Offering financing and service-models (e.g., leasing, pay-as-you-go) to lower upfront customer cost barriers.
