The solar street lighting market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $12 billion in 2025 to $13.99 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth in traditional solar lighting adoption, expansion of battery-based lighting systems, reliance on standalone lighting installations, early use of fluorescent and led luminaries, development of integrated solar poles.
The solar street lighting market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $25.51 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing deployment of smart solar lighting networks, rising demand for renewable-powered street illumination, growth in energy-efficient public infrastructure, expansion of highway and roadway installations, development of advanced solar controllers and sensors. Major trends in the forecast period include adoption of sustainable solar lighting infrastructure, integration of IoT-connected solar street light systems, deployment of autonomous smart lighting platforms, advancement of cloud-based lighting monitoring solutions, development of intelligent renewable lighting technologies.
The increasing demand for clean energy is expected to propel the growth of the solar street lighting market. Clean energy refers to energy produced through processes that emit no pollutants, particularly greenhouse gases such as CO₂ that contribute to global warming, thereby supporting environmental protection. Solar energy, a widely used clean and renewable resource, plays a significant role in public lighting systems. Solar streetlights utilize photovoltaic panels integrated into their design to capture sunlight throughout the day, store energy in a battery system, and supply this stored energy to the light source at night. For example, in February 2024, the World Economic Forum, a Switzerland-based international non-governmental organization, reported that clean energy experienced substantial growth in 2023, with 50% more renewable capacity added to global energy systems compared to the previous year. Therefore, the rising demand for clean energy is driving the expansion of the solar street lighting market.
Leading companies in the solar street lighting market are innovating eco-friendly urban lighting solutions to strengthen their competitive position. Eco-friendly urban lighting solutions leverage renewable energy to deliver sustainable and energy-efficient illumination, reducing environmental impact and promoting environmentally conscious urban development. For instance, in March 2023, AGC Inc., a Japan-based glass manufacturing company, introduced the ST57 Solar LED Street Light, designed to support eco-friendly lighting applications. The ST57 features a separate solar panel and fixture head, along with smart controls that include a built-in microwave sensor, timer, and passive infrared (PIR) sensor. It is available in six power variants - 10W, 20W, 30W, 40W, 50W, and 60W - suitable for installation in roads, parks, parking lots, and other public spaces.
In April 2023, Sunna Design, a France-based provider of solar street lights, partnered with Schréder to expand the availability of environmentally friendly solar lighting solutions. Through this partnership, Sunna Design aims to accelerate the adoption of renewable lighting technologies and promote safe nighttime environments for communities worldwide. Schréder is a Belgium-based provider of lighting solutions, including solar streetlights.
