LED Lighting : Huge Business Opportunity
Indian LED lighting is the second largest market in the world (Frost & Sullivan).
The key factors that are expected to boost the market is the government initiatives that
promote LED street lighting projects.
The Smart street lighting market of India is still at a nascent stage but is expected to
achieve higher growth within the next five years, 35 million street lights by 2019 (EESL).
The Smart Street Lighting Market in India will grow at an estimated CAGR of 42.2%
during the forecast period 2016–2022 (Infoholic Research)
The LED market in India is expected to grow to ₹ 216 billion by 2020. (ELCOMA)
The key factors that are expected to boost the market is the government initiatives that
promote LED street lighting projects.
Rising consumer awareness about the cost-effectiveness, enhanced life, better efficiency
and inherent eco-friendly nature of LED lights will continue to drive volume sales from
the industrial, residential and commercial sectors.

Key Challenges in LED Lighting Market
LED Lighting system needs drivers - Technical Know-How
Lack of Power Electronics Skilled work force and Inadequate information
on product design and performance
Meeting the Design Performance, Governments /Agency regulations
Reliability/Low Quality of LED Drivers is Serious Concern and affecting
confidence of users -A Major Challenges
Demand for Higher lumens per watt (efficacy)- A latest Trend
Smart Control of LED Lighting system design- ( IoT based System)
EESL and Market demands minimum of 5 year warranty
Major players are from out of India and product are being imported, which
must be avoided to promote Make in India program.

LED Lighting Design: Power NucleusTM Advantages
PNI Team possess required technical capabilities to address the design Challenges
in LED Lighting System
Team analyse the system requirements and adapts the system level approach to
bottom out the problems and cultivate the mitigation plan at Lowest Cost.
To respond to the Efficiency challenge, team adapts digital/advance power
controls, selects robust and optimized power conversion stage/topology.
System Reliability is achieved by right parts selection/appropriate de-rating and
advance Thermal Managements of Semiconductors and Magnetics.
Team developed the simple and innovative design for lesser use of Al-Caps,
Thermal Foldback Protection, Dimming Capabilities and mitigation of output
Light Flickering.
Team simplify the design process to best address the widest number of market
opportunities, and shorten development cycles.
The PNI team takes advantage of the full potential of innovations that LEDs
bring to lighting at different levels of the supply chain and ultimately in the hands
of the final customer.
