"Chinese style" LED industry future geometry?

Recently, LED source development prospects again questioned, "saving money", "neither energy nor money", "Carnival highlights the aftermath, repeat the photovoltaic industry, road full application of public lighting is dangerous" is frequent media, LED light source into an uncertain future deadlock to industry professionals eliminating confusion.

LED light source in an uncertain future deadlock

Not long ago, Taiwan Taichung City Council after the review of the budget decision, the news will be deleted 79 million LED subsidy funding caused keen attention. Li Zhong said, LED street lighting is not enough, the failure rate is high, subsidies after the installation of street lamps and maintenance costs, did not achieve the purpose of saving money.

Coincidentally, Guangdong three years of internal forces to push public lighting has recently been strongly questioned, the industry believes that the regional mandatory replacement technology is not mature, the content of science and technology is not high LED lighting products can not be questioned. The bigger problem is that LED lighting products need to consume a large number of non-ferrous metal resources, does not meet the national energy saving low-carbon policy. Therefore, the application of LED in public lighting has certain dangers.

Rethink how to development of LED lighting industry faces an uncertain future

After a few years after the carnival, LED lighting industry sequelae continue to emerge, and its shuffling period is likely to continue until the mid 2014. If the market environment is not to see the LED lighting business, it is possible to repeat the photovoltaic industry road.

For a time, has been the government and the industry is optimistic about the LED light source into an uncertain future deadlock. Meanwhile, from another point of view, after the chaos of the industry began to think about the future direction of LED light.

Vigilance good to do bad things"

The day before, Shanghai insiders said, LED lighting has been the government's eyes "xiangbobo" in Shanghai, on the upstream LED chip enterprises are giving huge subsidies. However, this year, subsidies have not achieved any success, the source said Shanghai began to suppress the development of LED lighting. In 2009, Jiangsu Province, Yangzhou municipal government launched the MOCVD subsidy policy, which China other local governments to follow suit, but at the beginning of last year, Yangzhou will halt MOCVD subsidies, subsidies gradually stopped after around MOCVD. Obviously, if the insider revealed in Shanghai will begin to inhibit LED source development, then this is likely to be a microcosm of the LED light source in the national development, local governments or planning for the LED light source is also gradually return to rational development.

LED development so far, the introduction of a policy subsidy one after another, from upstream equipment to downstream applications procurement. However, how many companies really are directed to R & D, for the expansion, to contribute to the development of the industry, rather than as "pocket money" spend? If subsidies in place, the enterprise development has no effect, the government should take what means to save? Do you need to go through legal procedures? Or that the people's hard-earned money can not be held accountable? In addition, the huge financial subsidies announced after the termination of the subsidized enterprises will face what kind of situation? What impact will this have on the industry? These important issues need to be considered.

From now rushing headlong into a sieve, government subsidies to the development path of guiding ideology but no ground for blame, and choice obviously should rethink, vigilance become "good thing to do".
