LED lighting international games to start the Korean business will become the biggest rival plant

With the global energy saving and carbon reduction trend rise, LED lighting market growth, the government will have the global LED lighting industry as a key strategic development of the industry, according to estimates, the 2011 Taiwan LED lighting photoelectric output is expected to reach NT $198 billion, but the South Korean LED package module production value in 2010 for the first time beyond Taiwan, mainland LED industry also catch up. The industry believes that South Korea will be the biggest rival Taiwan factory, but also gradually reduce dependence on mainland Taiwan factory technology, the advantages of Taiwan will not exceed 2 years, the Taiwan has taken the professional division of labor, but the basis of downstream applications is weak, the lack of international manufacturers, the future will face the dilemma to create brand advantage.

The Economic Department of energy secretary Ou Jiarui said, Taiwan LED industry in the global output or output ranking is one of the best, to form a highly competitive with South Korea, and in line with the policy direction, energy saving and carbon inspection according to statistics, the first half of 2011 the energy intensity improvement compared to 2010 decreased by 3.93% over the same period, for the past 20 years, in the GDP to maintain positive growth the biggest improvement, 1 years, saving electricity also have negative growth for 3 consecutive years to reach 3 years, the energy cost savings of about 300 billion 700 million yuan.

In order to assist the industry in international or domestic market, LED outdoor lighting, Ou Jiarui pointed out that the Energy Bureau will launch energy technology services industry in 2012 (ESCO) scheme, the price will save electricity conversion required for energy-saving equipment, which is achieved through the LED electricity saving effect, as the next payment to LED street vendor the cost, and will select the model city in a specific time!, extended in 100%, and the original collocation local subsidies, to accelerate energy-saving project in the demonstration city.

In the indoor lighting part, Ou Jiarui said that the government clearly defined before 2012, government agencies and school authorities, fire exit lights, lights and other refuge must use the LED light source, indoor lamps will replace energy sub standard before 2012, such as incandescent lamps, in addition, in January 1, 2012, more than 25 watt incandescent lamp, not in accordance with the energy efficiency standards, will be prohibited to produce, import, as for hotels, department stores such as the use of the incandescent lamp of 25 watts or more, will be disabled, as the collocation of energy saving and carbon reduction measures.

LED packaging factory Everlight director Mr. Ye pointed out that although Taiwan was the first to launch street to the national standard, but the recent LED products and stagnant, Taiwan consumers have no national standard rules, in the selected LED lighting products are now not only behind the United States and Japan and uneven in quality, and the mainland also began to catch up, Taiwan should accelerate the setting of LED lighting product quality certification to the elimination of the poor quality of LED products, increase consumer confidence to buy, and start the consumption subsidy policy.

China Economic Research Institute chairman Liang Qiyuan said, energy-saving and carbon reduction and economic development is not necessarily conflict, because Taiwan imports more than 99% of its energy, Taiwan energy imports accounted for GDP of 10%, so energy saving and reduce energy imports, can be pulled GDP, to promote Taiwan's economic growth, so the energy will not affect economic development, but the government should actively create employment. Promote the use of LED lighting, in order to promote the national energy-saving and carbon reduction movement, he was optimistic about the future of the industry, LED is the gold.

Gong Mingxin, vice president of Taiwan Institute of economic research said that international companies are now actively increase the LED lighting sector, although the government has subsidized the traffic lights, street lamps, but the subsidy amount is too small, compared with the great gap between solar subsidies. He is more specific recommendations, CCFL containing mercury, many countries have been banned, the government should be in line with international standards sunset.

Wu Zaiyi, President of the Taiwan Research Institute said that countries should focus on the stable energy supply, but not all in the development of renewable energy sources, the development of renewable energy, is bound to have a traditional power as the backup power, he believes that the Taiwan prices low for a long time, 201= ~ Taipower loss would be more than half the amount of capital, if the price is to achieve balance, then prices should be two digit price adjustment number, with a 80% LED power saving effect, the whole country if the use of LED lighting, can save 22 billion 400 million of electricity, Taiwan 3 nuclear plants but also sent 40 billion of electricity, energy-saving effect is obvious in LED lighting, can effectively improve energy efficiency.

Institute of electronics and Optoelectronics Research Institute director Zhan Yiren said, LED lighting market will take off on 2015, but LED lighting can not generally, the price is a fundamental problem, through the government to promote LED prices and the industry to actively carry out vertical integration in Taiwan before 2015 will be competitive.
