USA - The LED lighting market is continuing to grow, although at a somewhat slower pace than in recent years, said Strategies Unlimited ( http:// ) through its recent report High-Brightness LED Market Review and Forecast 2009.
According to the report, lighting and LCD backlighting are the applications that will drive market recovery in 2010 and over the next five years, with market growth forecast at a CAGR of 24%, reaching $14.9 billion in 2013.
Continuing the trend of recent years, high-brightness LED market growth for 2008 was 11%, reaching $5.1 billion, in spite of a shaky fourth quarter. However, a decline of 3.7% is expected for 2009, resulting in a market size of $4.9 Billion.

The report pointed out that the lighting and LCD backlighting are providing strong counterweights to the decline in other segments, and they have moderated the rate of overall HB LED market contraction.
