The LED lights market has undergone significant transformation in the last couple of years. The Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) passed in 2007 led to a major change in the lighting industry as it replaced the outdated inefficient lighting technology. LED lighting has now become necessary to meet the new standards of EISA’s energy standards. The adoption of LED lighting systems led to reduced energy costs and significant improvements in performance. However, installation of LED based lighting system require high up front cost, which led to the development of new financial structures such as Lighting as a Service (LAAS). These new financial structures have helped both the public and private sector companies capitalize on continuous innovations that are taking place in the LED industry.

Global lighting as a service market is expected to reach $4.74 billion by 2025. In terms of Geography, North America had the largest market share in 2016.
