Smart low carbon lighting concept and its market potential

The meaning of intelligent low carbon lighting

Rising gasoline prices in China have made people aware of the dire nature of energy shortages and the energy crisis has become a topic of renewed concern. Now talking about energy-saving lighting, the first to bear in mind that I have not been a fluorescent energy-saving lamps, and now should be the world of LED lighting. Although the market penetration of LED lighting is not so ideal, but LED technology used in the field of lighting and decoration, lighting is undoubtedly a major breakthrough in the field of energy. Today, the better the LED lighting products, performance is getting higher and higher, the market is getting better and better. But there is no best, only better. As a national promotion of energy-efficient lighting products, LED lighting products must be energy efficiency maximization, so more energy on the basis of energy-saving, so the concept of the wisdom of low-carbon lighting to produce.

Intelligent lighting performance

The application of intelligent lighting in the life of a wide range, but the wisdom of low-carbon lighting is not reflected in the life of many. Intelligent lighting is mainly embodied in the following ways: manual dimming, remote dimming, remote control dimming, induction and energy complementary ways.

Manual dimming: through mechanical or electronic SCR dimmer switch to adjust the size of the current to control the power of the size, and thus to achieve energy saving effect, such as the hotel bedside lamp, etc..

Remote dimming: through the remote control dimmer switch to adjust the size of the current to control the power of the size, and then to achieve energy saving effect.

Remote control dimming: through the computer network to achieve weak current control of power, the size of the power control to achieve energy efficiency requirements, such as some of the city's street lights, etc.;

Induction: through the human body infrared or sound and light system to control the on-off to achieve energy saving effect, some public places corridor induction lamp;

Complementary energy: the use of solar energy to replace the traditional wind energy, direct energy costs, and play a role in environmental protection. At present, some of the city's street lamps on the use of complementary energy saving smart way.

In addition to the above several forms of expression, as well as timing control and so on some of the functions. At present, the application range of remote control dimming, remote dimming and induction lamp is wider. Complementary energy should be the ultimate goal of intelligent lighting, but it is relatively difficult to implement.

Intelligent low carbon lighting problem

Although the wisdom of low-carbon light has a good market prospects, but its technology is not mature. Intelligent dimming is currently controlled by the voltage or current to control the lamp input power. Incandescent lamp dimming technology is relatively mature, because the incandescent lamp is realized by controlling the dimming voltage, current incandescent lamp can cause the voltage to control the maximum power is the incandescent lamp is alternating current. The LED product is a direct current, so only through the current to control the output power to light. The LED driver power will be used to stabilize the current LED cross flow, LED dimming is difficult to achieve good results, it has the following difficult to solve the problem:

First, it is difficult to find a matching LED dimming solutions;

Two, by the lamp space constraints, the installation of related parts inconvenient;

Three, LED solid state light source in current instability under long-term use will cause decay and service life of lamps.

Smart low carbon lighting applications

Twenty-first Century is the century of energy, in today's increasingly depleted global energy, many countries have begun to realize that the world has to get energy. Energy is limited, so energy conservation and the development of new energy must be two pronged approach. Smart low carbon lighting, is to try to fit people's living habits, so as to maximize energy efficiency. About the wisdom of low-carbon lighting applications, there are already many areas to start. SKYWORTH, rectangular lighting and other enterprises, indoor dimming products, the current market demand for relatively large indoor smart products. These products are widely used in hotels, as well as in leisure and entertainment places. It is understood that a lot of cities, especially the ten cities of the project's LED street lamps have a considerable part of the use of intelligent control means to reduce energy consumption.

LEDinside believes that the wisdom of low-carbon lighting is the development trend of lighting, with the maturity of the technology and the main body of a number of derivative culture, the wisdom of low-carbon lighting applications will be more and more widely. Along with the application of AC LED technology, LED lighting products market will be running in shorter and shorter.
