The increasing solar power generation is surging the demand for solar-powered marine lighting products, especially in remote maritime locations where traditional power sources are unavailable or unreliable. In 2023, power generation from solar PV increased by a record 320 TWh, up by 25% from 2022. As the cost of solar technology decreases, the cost of implementing solar-powered marine lighting solutions is expected to decline, boosting the appeal of solar-powered marine lighting systems.
Increasing investments by governments to enhance port safety, reliability, and resilience are shaping the marine lighting market dynamics. In November 2024, the US government announced its plans to invest USD 580 million to fund 31 port improvement projects in 15 states and one US territory to strengthen supply chain reliability, enhance freight efficiency, and improve the safety, reliability, and resilience of ports. With the increasing focus on improving port infrastructure resilience, the demand for marine lighting products designed for enhanced durability, security, and visibility is rising.
The diversification of the marine industry is surging the demand for customised marine lighting systems to meet specific operational needs like colour specifications, brightness, corrosion resistance, and energy efficiency for offshore platforms, vessels, and ports. In the forecast period, the expansion of offshore platforms, including offshore wind farms, maritime oil rigs, and post-modernisation projects, is anticipated to bolster the demand for customisable marine lighting.

Marine Lighting Market Outlook
*this image is indicative*
One of the key marine lighting market trends is the surge in recreational boating and leisure activities. As per the Boating Industry Association (BIA) of Australia, nearly 1 in 5 Australians participated in recreational boating activity on an annual basis as of 2024. With increasing recreational boating activities, the demand for customisable lighting solutions such as accent lighting, LED strip lights, and colour-changing lights, among others, boosts the aesthetic appeal of vessels.
The growing adoption of smart vessels integrated with navigation systems, integrated sensors, and automation is boosting the demand for marine lighting systems that can adjust themselves based on factors such as weather conditions, vessel speed, and proximity to other ships. In the forecast period, the development of autonomous vessels is anticipated to surge the demand for lighting systems that can optimise navigation, visibility, and safety without human intervention.
Advancements in underwater lighting technology aimed at creating waterproof, durable, and energy-efficient systems that enhance the functioning of vessels are expected to aid the market. The integration of sensor technology in marine lighting systems to provide real-time data on their operational status, increase uptime, lower unexpected failures, and minimise maintenance costs is anticipated to aid the market in the coming years.

Growing emphasis on safety; rising use of marine lighting in environmental conservation; increasing demand for energy-efficient marine lighting; and development of smart marine lighting solutions are favouring the marine lighting market expansion.
As safety is crucial in maritime operations, the demand for marine lighting to ensure the well-being of passengers and crew and prevent collisions and groundings, especially in low visibility conditions such as fog or darkness, is increasing. Moreover, efficient marine lighting systems are crucial to facilitate smooth and productive operations in marine installations like shipyards, ports, and offshore platforms and provide visibility and guidance during crisis situations.
Amid growing concerns regarding marine ecosystem preservation, marine researchers use controlled lighting to monitor and study marine life and enable a deep understanding of migration patterns, biodiversity, and the interactions that sustain delicate ecosystems. Moreover, there is a rising use of low-impact lighting systems in marine research activities to minimise the disturbance to marine life, including marine parks, coral reefs, and protected marine habitats.
The rising demand for energy-efficient marine lighting amid the growing focus on sustainability is boosting the marine lighting market revenue. LED lighting, due to its energy efficiency and long operational life, is increasingly used in different marine applications, including coastal, navigation, and harbour lighting.
Key players are developing smart marine lighting solutions equipped with equipped with sensors and smart controllers that can automatically adjust brightness levels based on factors such as time of day, ambient light, and traffic patterns. The integration of GPS and motion sensors that enable smart marine lighting solutions to respond to real-time environmental conditions is expected to fuel the market in the coming years.
The growing emphasis on safety in the marine industry is surging the demand for reliable lighting solutions for applications such as signalling and navigation, even in low visibility conditions such as rain, fog, and other extreme weather conditions. With the introduction of various regulations by governments and international organisations aimed at mandating the installation of lighting solutions for safety applications, the demand for marine lighting is increasing.
The development of smart lighting systems that can be integrated with radars and navigation systems to optimise visibility for marine vessels is creating lucrative marine lighting market opportunities. Smart lighting solutions also automatically activate pathway lights and emergency beacons during emergencies, which makes them crucial for emergency response and alerts.
