ASEAN Solar Lighting Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034

The ASEAN solar lighting market size is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.20% between 2025 and 2034. The major drivers of the market include introduction of incentives by various governments to promote the utilisation of solar operated electrical devices and the increasing demand for energy efficient lighting.

Key Trends in the Market

Solar lighting is a lighting system that is powered by the rays of sun; the solar panel collects solar energy during daytime and stores it in a battery, which then powers the light during night-time. The essential components of solar lighting include solar panels, high-efficiency fixtures, controllers, and rechargeable batteries.

• The key trends boosting the growth of the ASEAN solar lighting market include the rising demand for decorative lighting in residential and commercial sectors. Growing adoption of decorative solar lightings to increase the aesthetic appearance of homes and commercial spaces is expected to propel the growth of the market for solar lighting in the ASEAN.
• Technological advancements in solar lighting, including introduction of improved battery functioning and backup systems to allow the functioning of light for several days, is another crucial trend fuelling the growth of the ASEAN solar lighting market. Due to technological advancements, solar lighting can also be customised on the basis of weather patterns and locations.
• Another crucial trend aiding the growth of the ASEAN solar lighting market is the low cost of solar lighting systems. The cost-efficient nature of solar lighting is expected to increase their utilisation over the forecast period. The zero costs of drop meters and grid power have made the adoption of solar lighting cost effective and preferrable.
