Global Horticulture Lighting Market 2023-2028: Customizable Light Spectra - Revolutionizing Horticulture and Driving Market Growth


Dublin, Sept. 25, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Horticulture Lighting Market by Installation Type (New Installations, Retrofit Installations), Lighting Type (Toplighting, Interlighting), Offering (Hardware, Software & Service), Cultivation Type, Technology, Application, Region - Global Forecast to 2028" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global horticulture lighting market is on track to achieve remarkable growth, projected to reach USD 10.4 billion by 2028 from USD 3.7 billion in 2023, at a formidable CAGR of 22.4% during the period from 2023 to 2028. The driving force behind this growth is the transformative technology of customizable light spectra, which has revolutionized plant cultivation. Horticulture lighting technology allows growers to tailor the light environment for each crop, leading to optimized growth, faster maturation, and improved crop quality.

Customizable Light Spectra Enhancing Plant Growth

Horticulture lighting technology offers the unique capability to provide customizable light spectra tailored to the specific requirements of various plant species and growth stages. This precision and customization have redefined the way plants are cultivated, enabling growers to create ideal light conditions for each crop. Unlike natural sunlight, which may not always provide the ideal light spectrum for optimal growth, horticulture lighting uses light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to produce light across a wide range of wavelengths. This flexibility empowers growers to select and fine-tune the light spectrum that best suits their crops' needs.

Different plant species and growth stages have varying light requirements. For example, young seedlings may need more blue light for robust root and shoot development, while mature plants benefit from increased red light to support flowering and fruiting. Customizable light spectra allow growers to adjust lighting throughout the plant's life cycle, ensuring it receives the precise wavelengths required at each developmental stage.

Enhancing Photosynthesis and Crop Characteristics

Customizable light spectra play a crucial role in promoting photosynthesis - the process by which plants convert light into energy for growth. By providing the right combination of colors, photosynthesis occurs at maximum efficiency, resulting in increased biomass production and healthier, more vigorous plants. Moreover, manipulating light spectra can influence various plant characteristics, including flavor, color, and nutritional content. Specific light spectra can enhance the production of compounds like antioxidants and essential oils, contributing to the taste and nutritional value of fruits, vegetables, and herbs.

Indoor Farming and Controlled Environment Agriculture

Horticulture lighting technology is particularly valuable in indoor farming and controlled environment agriculture (CEA), where natural sunlight may be limited or inconsistent. By precisely tailoring light conditions to match crop requirements, horticulture lighting ensures a consistent and predictable growth environment, leading to better yields and crop quality.

LED Leading the Way

Among the various lighting technologies, LED (light-emitting diode) is expected to experience the highest CAGR during the forecast period. LEDs are solid-state light sources that convert electricity into light through electron movement. They emit minimal heat and can be placed in close proximity to plants. Advanced LED grow lights offer adjustable spectra tailored to different growth stages, surpassing traditional lighting in efficiency. LEDs are known for their long lifespan (nearly 50,000 hours), energy efficiency (50% less energy consumption than fluorescent and 85% less than incandescent lights), and resistance to shocks and moisture. They are highly suitable for controlled environment agriculture settings, including greenhouses and indoor farms.

Companies Leading the Way

Several key players in the horticulture lighting market are driving innovation and product development. For instance, Signify Holding (formerly Philips Lighting) introduced a 1,040-watt Philips HPS light fixture for low-maintenance, hybrid light installations in combination with Philips GreenPower LED toplighting. Additionally, Signify introduced Philips GreenPower LED grid lighting designed to steer uniform bud development and increase the yield of top-shelf flowers.

Greenhouses Taking the Lead

Greenhouses are expected to dominate the horticulture lighting market, particularly in the application segment. Greenhouses offer controlled environments for optimal crop growth and yield, transcending geographic and climatic constraints. They harness natural sunlight and LED grow lights to provide uniform light distribution and controlled temperature and humidity, enhancing crop production efficiency.

Asia-Pacific Region Fueling Growth

The Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to exhibit the highest CAGR during the forecast period, driven by a burgeoning population, increasing food demand, and the adoption of advanced farming methods like controlled environment agriculture (CEA). Asia-Pacific is witnessing a surge in horticulture lighting adoption due to the need to enhance agricultural yields with limited resources and safeguard crops against unpredictable climate changes.
