In second place is North America, followed by China in third.

2017 Expected Global LED Market Trends

Recent research has shown that the LED market will grow from $29.6 billion in 2016 to $33.1 billion US dollars in 2017, with the expected LED penetration to reach 52% of the global lighting market. The Asia-Pacific region is expected to see  the most rapid growth in the LED lighting market.

The U.S. LED Market

According to LEDinside, Strong Dollar Policy makes the United States the growth driver for the global LED market demand, while the world’s products are becoming cheaper. This trend in reduced LED light prices is expected to continue to affect the U.S. lighting market. The United States is also promoting LED local lighting assembly in order to maintain industrial development, promote local market demand and expand the market overall.

2016 has seen a large growth in market penetration for LED lighting, with manufacturers working hard to create LED business. LED commercial and industrial lighting demands are strongest in the United States, with the most popular lights being troffers, high bays, panel lights and tunnel lights.

The US has also seen an increase in plant LED lighting, as more states legalize medical and recreational marijuana.
