Production capacity to accelerate the price decline to accelerate the penetration of 2011LED lighting market

Recently, Samsung LED announced that, in high power LED products launched five types of output power of more than and less than 1W, to formally enter the LED lighting market. Down LED lamps prices and the popularity of LED applications based on many manufacturers Samsung and China big step into the LED lighting market. In early 2010, Japanese leading lighting manufacturers such as Toshiba (Toshiba), Matsushita (Panasonic) in the Japanese government, have cut off a LED bulb price, prices running. Entered in 2011, the industry generally released 2010 Global especially Chinese LED epitaxial chip production capacity caused by fear of competition this year the market doubts pile up in excess of requirement. General manager Chen Bin zhonglong traffic engineering LED days ago to reporters, upstream of the MOCVD machine in 2011 there will be 5 times the growth is bound to lead to 15 times the capacity expansion. The backlight is the best release this year to expand production capacity, if the back light reaches the expected growth this year, so the price may hold LED. And, after June, with the upstream chip overcapacity, the overall cost of LED will have a 30% decline. Currently, they have been feeling the long-term cooperation with several major international chip giant stock pressure. Of LED lighting manufacturers, the price decline of LED is a positive influence, which can make their products more accepted by users, and they have to improve the efficiency to reduce costs, gain market profits, Chen Bin high LED reporter says. LED Engineering Research Institute (GLII) estimates, reduce chip cost trend in 2011, LED lighting prices will continue to decline, large size LCD backlight and LED lighting is expected to become the twin engines. At present, the LED industry generally estimated that compared to 2010 Global LED penetration rate of about 3%, in 2011 LED lighting penetration is expected to reach 6~10%.
