DOE solid state lighting R & D program: LED 250LM/W

U.S. Department of energy (DOE) recently released the 2014 version of solid state lighting R & D Program (MYPP). MYPP updated once a year, focusing on the current state of the development of solid state lighting, and for the next few years, the development of the industry provides an important goal and plan, can be described as LED industry weathervane and street lights. Therefore, in a timely manner to grasp the trend, will fully understand the industry and play a key role in market opportunities.

About the plan described in the current development of the LED industry, LEDinside summarizes the following key points for you:

Increase in installed capacity and permeability

2013, the United States LED lamp installation reached 105 million, energy saving cost of $1 billion 800 million, more than two times in 2012. 2013, the United States LED indoor and outdoor lighting installation penetration rate reached 1.3% and 5.8%. 2014, along with the impact of 40W and 60W incandescent disable policy fermentation, indoor LED lighting penetration is expected to accelerate the upgrade.

Packaging and lighting products prices continued to fall

LED packaging products to enhance the efficiency of light while prices continue to fall. DOE in the new version of the revised LED efficiency target to 250LM/W, the price is 0.5$/klm. In addition, LED A-lamp prices fell significantly, the current United States to replace 60W incandescent LED dimmable A19 light bulbs can be priced as low as $10, adjustable light as low as $13. Even lower prices in areas covered by subsidies.

Performance improvement

CREE and Philips are released lamps light efficiency more than 200LM/W samples, therefore, to 2025, 200LM/W reached the average optical effect of product of LED lighting products, and market penetration rate reached 60%, to achieve the goal of energy saving 217 twh.

LED packaging and lighting development milestones

In addition, the life, reliability and sustainability issues of solid state lighting products are discussed.
