Supermarket energy-saving LED lighting into a darling

With the increasingly fierce market competition in the supermarket industry, the industry has entered the era of meager profit, how to reduce operating costs has become a problem that retailers often think about. In particular, the huge cost of electricity has become an important part of the cost of the supermarket, how to control the cost of electricity has become the key to the supermarket energy saving. Lighting experts have pointed out that the consumption of electricity accounts for 70% of the cost of lighting, and the device itself accounts for only about 3% of the cost of lighting (equipment maintenance costs account for about 27% of the cost of lighting), the use of energy-saving products is truly low cost. In order to achieve the purpose of energy saving, many large supermarkets have turned their attention to LED lighting.

Super LED lighting transformation energy efficiency significantly

As the fourth generation of new green energy - LED lighting in the government, enterprises and other spare no effort to promote the LED lighting market gradually open. In national policy, subsidies and other incentives, road lighting, public lighting and other fields of LED lighting applications have achieved some success. However, commercial lighting, office lighting, home lighting and other needs to be developed. From the supermarket lighting, lighting WAL-MART, Huarun million, IKEA Home Furnishing, new world department store, Suning, Meikailong, Hualian, Yokado, Wanda Plaza, rainbow mall's brand has been used in LED lighting, but the vast majority of the mall is still in the application of LED lighting to replace the stage, not fully play the advantages of LED light source.

It is understood that at the supermarket and shopping malls lighting environment mainly used lamps and light sources including compact energy-saving lamp and T5/T8 lamp fluorescent lamp bracket, grille lamp, metal halide lamp, and gradually try to application of LED lighting products. However, the transformation of super LED energy saving, energy saving effect is significant. Such as WAL-MART, Honeywell and WAL-MART from the beginning of 2008 full participation in the transformation and implementation of energy-saving lighting scheme China, provide the most advanced and most comprehensive LED lighting products and solutions including the main lighting, lighting, outdoor lighting, refrigerator fresh advertising lighting for its supermarket. According to the comparison of electricity before and after the transformation of 100 supermarkets, a large WAL-MART supermarket can save nearly 1 million kwh of electricity per year.

To promote LED lighting widely used four major "stumbling block"

Promotion of LED lighting applications in general areas, commercial lighting hit the first gust of wind, while the supermarket lighting applications are considered to be the first to enter the more mature LED application market. To promote the wide application of LED lighting still has the following four problems: 1, lack of luminous flux, lighting effect is limited. Because most of the lighting reconstruction using standard replacement time source, the power constraint caused by the total light flux is not enough. 2, the color is not good, lighting quality can not be guaranteed. 3, reliability is not high, not perfect after-sales service. In particular, the current LED products on the market homogenization and uneven product quality. 4, the price is relatively high. Relative to the traditional energy-saving lamps, LED lighting products prices are relatively high, and a one-time investment in lighting energy conservation prices are generally too high.

Summary: in government policies, subsidies and other plans from outdoor lighting to indoor lighting, LED lighting gradually applied to commercial lighting, office lighting, home lighting and other fields. Although LED lighting there are still four big stumbling block, but I believe that with the LED lighting technology, performance, price increase, LED lighting is widely applied point the day and await for it.
