The rising per capita income complements the growth of households
- The average household size in China registered 3.03 persons in 2017. By 2021, it reduced to 2.7, indicating an increase in private households/housing ownerships. After 1998, China went from being a nation dominated by public renters to one with the highest homeownership rates, owing to the privatization of existing public housing and the vast provision of private housing, primarily in the ownership sector. By 2020, more than 90% of households in China owned their homes (87% in urban areas and 96% in rural areas). In contrast to many affluent countries, more than 20% of Chinese households own several properties. Thus, the increase in the number of properties is expected to create more LED penetration for the need for illumination in the country.
- In China, disposable income is growing, resulting in the rising spending power of individuals who spend more money on new residential spaces. China's per capita income reached USD 12,732.5 in December 2022 compared to USD 12,615.7 in December 2021. India's per capita income was USD 2,301.4 as of Mar 2022, which is lower than China's.
- In China, the floor area of residential buildings per capita for rural areas was reported at 48.900 sq. m in 2019, an increase from the previous year of 47.300 sq. m. In urban areas, it was 38.600 sq. m in 2020, a decrease from 39.800 sq. m in 2019 due to an increase in the investment in small-size apartments/studio apartments. This is propelling the growth of LED lighting in the country. For instance, people in China invested in low-cost apartments in small Chinese cities.
- In 2012, households in China were offered a subsidy program of CNY 2.2 (USD 0.31) billion for the use of energy-conserving light bulbs and LEDs. Such instances are expected to increase the demand for LED lighting in the country.

China's energy conservation initiatives could propel the LED lighting market in the country
- In 2021, Chinese households used approximately 1,170 terawatt hours of electricity. At around 5,610 terawatt hours, the secondary sector, which includes the manufacturing industries, consumed the most energy. The residential and commercial sectors came in second and third. Market growth is negative as a result of the real estate market slump. Despite the decline in new construction, chances for significant growth exist in the renovation of the existing structures and the creation of green buildings, leading to the expansion of the LED market in China.
- During normal business hours, commercial electricity use is at its peak. It usually lasts between 10 and 12 hours every day. Electricity consumption in the industrial sector does not vary during the day or year; for example, manufacturing facilities operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The residential sector often has peak electricity demand in the evenings, ranging from 5.5 to 7 hours.
- The 14th Five-Year Plan for the Development of Culture and Tourism in April 2021 encouraged the development of the night‑time economy and the construction of national clusters for culture and tourism at night by installing 200 intelligent lamp post projects, driving the growth of the LED lighting market.
- By 2022, 70% of new urban buildings must be recognized as green buildings, according to the new standards. According to the Plan, all public facilities, structures larger than 20,000 sq. m, and other sizable public structures must adhere to China's Green Building Evaluation Label's 3-Star Green Building Standards. The development of LED lighting is being accelerated by China's emphasis on energy conservation.
