Light bulb prices in 2012 LED lighting market is worth looking forward to

Blocking one of the "tiger LED lighting market to expand bulb price" problem is lopsided". The latest survey data show that the replacement of the traditional 60 watt incandescent bulb LED average retail price in December last year, a significant decline in the minimum price of a single month fell to $18.9. The lowest price of the LED bulb, which replaces 40 watt incandescent bulbs, fell to $11.1. In addition, ELectroniCast released the day before Consultants a new market research report pointed out that the next 10 years (high brightness LED light efficiency is 30 ~ 70 LM / W) demand will increase to 6 times, 2011 high brightness LED global consumption of $10 billion 770 million, is expected to reach $69 billion 700 million by 2021. This is for LED practitioners, is undoubtedly good news.

Optimistic about the Chinese market

Outlook 2012, LED industry is still optimistic about China's LED lighting market.

In the past 2011, the LED industry is five mixed, small and medium-sized enterprises are difficult, and rare earth is not rare, dragons and fishes jumbled together, listed companies have flocked sapphire hot, the introduction of favorable policies, the investment of western industrial processes...... Outlook 2012, LED industry is still optimistic about China's LED lighting market.

PHILPS Lumileds Asia market director Zhou Xuejun in an interview with reporters, said that in 2011, the development of China's LED device market in different areas of performance is not the same. In the TV, monitor backlight and LED display, the impact of the global economy, the demand for a significant decline. In general lighting, although there is no explosive growth, but overall still showing a trend of growth, although the magnitude and speed may be expected to differ. To street lamps, for example, in 2011 and in 2010, compared to LED street lamps installed capacity is estimated to grow by about 30%. In 2012, for general lighting applications, with light quality and light effect, to further improve the system to further reduce the cost and the implementation of incentive policies, the overall will continue to show growth trend, this pattern should not be a big change.

For the Chinese market, in recent years, the term LED has been frequently mentioned, with the pressure of energy saving and emission reduction, the Chinese government has increased the intensity of support for the LED industry. There is no doubt that the future of China and Asia will be a huge market for LED industry, especially LED lighting. Li Jianming, general manager of Seoul semiconductor Greater China sales, said, but compared with developed countries, China's LED lighting market is still in its infancy. In addition to the continued support of the government, but also look forward to the Chinese government as soon as possible the introduction of relevant LED subsidy policy, LED lighting products, as well as a unified standard of strict market access and supervision mechanisms. "

It is worth emphasizing that last year whether sapphire or MOCVD equipment, investment is very hot, the production capacity need to be further released this year, this will reduce the LED terminal lighting products prices, so as to promote the expansion of the LED lighting market. If the government continues to introduce favorable policies this year, will further activate the LED lighting market.

Japanese civil LED lighting market has started

Japanese market or take the lead

Compared with other countries, Japan's demand for energy saving and improving the utilization of renewable energy is more urgent.

Although China has a huge market potential, but because of the special energy environment, Japan's energy conservation and improve the utilization of renewable energy demand compared with other countries, it is more urgent. In the Asian LED lighting market, the rise of the Japanese market argument in the industry is very common. At the beginning of this year, Tokyo electric power company has announced that from April this year, began to improve the factory, office and other business electricity prices, involving a total of about 24 companies. In addition, the company is studying in the spring this year, the government must be approved by the increase in household electricity prices, which will undoubtedly further accelerate the popularity of LED lamps in japan. Of course, Chinese companies have also taken the Japanese market as the focus of development.

Li Jianming told reporters that the foreign LED market, such as Europe, Japan, in addition to these countries have a certain demand, the government's efforts to promote a great. The developed countries are relatively mature awareness of environmental protection and energy conservation, environmental protection and energy saving products to accept a higher degree, governments such policies have also been introduced, so the LED lighting in the mall has begun building a relatively perfect channel. Especially after the earthquake in Japan, is undoubtedly the earliest started LED indoor lighting market, energy-saving measures and with the Fukushima nuclear disaster, is also an important factor to encourage consumers to switch to LED lighting, LED lighting so Japan from the beginning of 2011 ahead of other countries, the first to enter the growth stage.
