LED in bad mouthing sound temper forward

Our country is the production and consumption of lighting products, lighting electricity accounts for about 13% of the total electricity consumption. Compared with the traditional lighting, LED lamp has the advantages of low calorific value, low power consumption, long service life, good color rendering, fast reaction speed, no flash frequency, no damage to the eyes, thin and short products, etc.. If we use the 1 billion 400 million incandescent lamps are replaced with LED lights, the annual savings of 48 billion kwh.

Experts said, LED as a global strategic development of new industries competing to become China's post crisis era to promote industrial restructuring and upgrading, promote energy conservation and emission reduction of the new engine.

Current market situation

According to the "semiconductor lighting technology development" 12th Five-Year "special plan", by 2015, China's semiconductor lighting industry scale will reach 500 billion yuan, LED lighting products cost decreased to 1/5 in 2011, in the general lighting market share will reach 30%. In this regard, deputy secretary general Chinese semiconductor lighting engineering research and Industry Alliance chairman Yang Lanfang said that with the national authorities and local government policy support and increase investment, China's LED lighting industry in the next 3 years will enter a period of explosive growth.

It is understood that with the rapid development of LED technology and the falling cost of application of LED in the city landscape lighting, decorative lighting and small size backlight areas have entered the mature stage; in the field of large-size backlight, large screen display field has entered the high-speed development period; general lighting products coming from the introduction phase into the high-speed development of the the growth period.

LED in the Beijing Olympic Games, Shanghai, World Expo and other activities to promote the application of LED to accelerate the popularization of landscape lighting, outdoor public lighting, commercial lighting. According to estimates, only 50 thousand square meters of water cube LED landscape lighting, compared with fluorescent lamps, the annual energy saving of 745 thousand kwh, saving more than 70%. At present, China has become the world's largest producer of LED. 2011, China's LED industry output value (excluding Taiwan) scale of 156 billion yuan, an increase of about 30%, is expected to total output value of more than $200 billion this year.

At the same time, the rapid development of the LED lighting industry, the market also appeared some noise and chaos. In the favorable policies of the government, broad market prospects, such as the aura of the light, the temptation to follow the influx of countless Nuggets who want to seize the opportunity in the exploratory stage of this emerging industry. Many domestic and foreign industry or the strength of the enterprise, or jointly set up factories, or the establishment of a subsidiary, attack LED lighting. Swarm investment fever, coupled with large-scale foreign enterprises to enter the LED industry competition quickly white hot. Some just want to get a sum of the enterprise into the industry, but the concept of hype energy saving, but can not do the real energy. In the face of fierce competition in the market as well as rising costs of raw materials, the pressure of export barriers, these companies at the expense of quality. The poor quality of the LED products disrupt the market price, but also makes the consumer confidence in LED products greatly reduced, resulting in a vicious cycle.

According to public information, at present, China has 8000 LED companies, of which more than 5 thousand are in the lower reaches of the industrial chain, do not grasp the core technology, the gross margin is very low. Many companies are facing the risk of bankruptcy, as of the end of 2011, only the closure of the city of Shenzhen LED lighting companies on more than 80. Foshan and Shenzhen in Guangdong Province, in 2011 there are nearly 1 of the enterprises closed down.

Innovation, promotion, standards can not be less

For some small and medium-sized LED companies closed down, the experts pointed out that there is no need to panic too much. 10% to 20% of the initial stage of development of the industry to withdraw from the market is very normal, shuffle integration is the only way to allow the industry to return to rational LED.

Shenzhen semiconductor lighting industry development Association honorary president Wang Dianfu believes that the broad prospects for the development of the LED industry for all to see, can not be used to determine the performance of short-term market overcapacity. At present, China has formed a Bohai, Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta region of the 3 main LED industrial clusters, and has a number of outstanding leading enterprises. Compared to the present widely circulated on the Internet "excess capacity", "closures" and questioned the voice, the core technology R & D capability is relatively weak, patent barriers exist and lack of industry standards and deserve more attention, which really restrict the rapid development of China's LED industry.

China semiconductor lighting /LED industry and application alliance Secretary General Guan Baiyu hold the same view. She pointed out that the LED lighting industry is typical of the high technology industry, high input, high return, high risk and high-end talent features; is also a fusion of multi technology industry, long industrial chain, involving semiconductor materials, optoelectronic devices, integrated circuit, light source, lighting and other aspects of the application. To this end, to further increase efforts to support LED enterprises to improve the ability of independent innovation, development, grasp the key technologies. Through the support of the relevant departments of the state and the local government's science and technology projects, technology innovation and product innovation. At the same time do a good job in the construction of enterprise technology centers and other innovative institutions, to lay the foundation for the construction of technological innovation system. Strengthen the interaction of the industrial chain, including materials, chip manufacturing, packaging and testing, power module, drive circuit, light source, lamps and special equipment, instruments and other links. In order to meet the needs of the market as the goal, to increase the application of LED lighting in various fields to promote the coordinated development of industries and applications. "For the healthy development of the LED industry, the government's policy support and application promotion, enterprise technology innovation, industry standards
