Lamp prices to layout LED street industry

LED lamp industry continued to gain strong support of national and local governments, the next few years will show rapid growth momentum. However, in the fast lane on the LED street lamp, also want to see clearly, in terms of energy saving technology, practical effect, environmental protection investment, price mechanism, the need to continue to pass".

LED street lamp market potential unlimited

LED street lamp market analysis report predicts that in 2011 China's LED street lamp market will grow by 100% to reach the size of more than 2 million 300 thousand. LED street lamp is the first step of the semiconductor lighting into the functional lighting of thousands of households, the advantages of power saving, strong direction, environmental protection, safety, long life, to maintain, high color rendering, easy to switch control. LED street lamp to replace the traditional street lamp, a lamp can save electricity 1000 degrees. China's urban road lighting for the stock of 28 million 500 thousand, an annual increase of 150-200 million, each LED street lamp price 3500-5000 yuan, the need for only 100-200 power white LED, the market has great potential.

The rapid development of China's urbanization and energy conservation and emission reduction efforts to increase, but also for the future development of LED street lamps provide a huge potential market. Over the past two years, LED street lamps continue to attract more manufacturers input. A veteran of the traditional lighting companies such as OSRAM, GE, Thorne, Shi Laide, sitko (Siteco), ZumtobEL, BEGA, Cooper, Hess etc. have been fully rolled out LED lamp R & D and production. The driving force of these initiatives is optimistic about the industry and continue to expand the LED street market.

LED street lamp hot state worries

From the beginning of last year, the domestic LED market suddenly very optimistic, overseas investment mergers and integration of upstream and downstream enterprises to accelerate the process of state-owned capital, private capital, etc. have also entered a period of rapid development, LED lighting industry will usher in the industry. In the LED street lighting into the hot state, some experts pointed out that in promoting industrial development, should be overall, comprehensive consideration of environmental protection, can not only look at the unilateral.

Professionals have pointed out that the current domestic cities to promote the formation of LED street lights a trend. We all thought it was a new energy saving technology, but in the same lighting intensity, LED street lamp is not more energy efficient than high-pressure sodium lamp. Coupled with the current specifications of various manufacturers LED lamp is very different, once the replacement will be very troublesome. Because it is not as high as the high-pressure sodium lamp has been completely standardized, the original bulb is broken, it is easy to buy replacement products.

It is understood that the current LED street lamps in China to promote the application, due to the LED street lamp is still no formal standard specification, color temperature, color rendering and glare and other major parameters have not been determined. The data show that after decades of technology accumulation, the existing street lamp failure rate of about 3%, while the experimental results of LED street lamp is the failure rate of up to 10% to 20%. At the same time, between the different manufacturers product technical standards are not unified, even the lamp size, approved the basic technical parameters of power are not the same, not compatible, difficult to meet the requirements of a unified and efficient management of city street lamp. In addition, the price of LED street lamp is too high to promote the LED street lamp brings great difficulties. Coupled with the standard LED street lamps and the use of LED street lamp road test method standards have not been developed.

From the current situation, due to the installation of LED street lamp price is too high to result in initial cost is higher than the traditional street more than 2 times, and the LED lamp with energy saving, bring long life, maintenance and other advantages of economic benefits, through many years before to emerge, the economic recovery cycle longer and bring some obstacles to LED Street mass market development.

In addition, some professionals pointed out that in the street lighting, and now the use of high pressure sodium and high pressure mercury. High pressure mercury mercury is not environmentally friendly, can be replaced. But high pressure sodium itself is green, energy-saving, efficient, do not need to be replaced. Now many cities in order to develop the LED industry, always rush to replace the original street lamp LED street lights, which in itself is unscientific.
