The current situation of LED lighting and energy saving strategy after the rise of Japan's electricity price

Many stores and households are affected by rising electricity prices

Many stores, because the store can not reflect the cost to the price, and that most of the stores can still maintain balance of payments, but because of the high cost of materials, so it becomes more difficult in terms of management.

Although Japan's recent electricity hike amplitude ratio of Tokyo electric power company (Tepco) estimated low, is about more than 8 percentage points increase, most of the residents were not satisfied. Many people oppose the electricity prices, and that is not just about money and electricity hike to hope that the power companies can do, rather than directly to the public burden.

Rising electricity prices make people feel blackmailed

The government allowed electricity hike, regardless of whether the people satisfied with the electricity price will rise. Therefore, the use of electricity has become the norm in daily life. Despite the rise in electricity prices, there are still many residents opposed to restart the nuclear power plant.

According to the statistics of the energy conservation group, the 4 major household appliances in the general household account for about 70% of the electricity consumption. It is recommended that the windows be glued to the heat shield to block the sun and avoid room temperature. And air conditioning open all day, so that the temperature is maintained at 28 degrees, because the switch off the power supply is more power consumption, this time, the use of inverter air conditioner will be the key to energy conservation

In addition, it is recommended not to put too much food and drinks in the refrigerator, and the brightness of the TV screen dimming, which is to adjust the backlight settings, which can be better in the LED backlight LCD tv. If every month can control every hour of electricity does not exceed 300 degrees (KWH), then the power company tariff hike will not cause too much impact on the general public.

LED bulbs reduce lighting energy consumption

The use of different bulbs can also reduce energy consumption. LED manufacturers see market demand. Japan's LED market in 2011, more than doubled in 2010, about two hundred billion yen, is expected to grow to nearly $four hundred billion in 2012.

The LED bulb is more expensive, but the product life cycle is longer than that of the filament and fluorescent bulbs, so it is regarded as an energy-saving bulb. Not only that, the Japanese market is also a special case, electric fans and bamboo curtains in 2011 sales also doubled. As a result of these efforts, Tokyo in the summer of 2011 electricity consumption less than in the summer of 2010.

After the 2011 tsunami in Fukushima, Japan, the Japanese people face the reconstruction after the disaster. Although people turn on the lights again in 2012, the collective spirit of saving electricity is still there. Many people think that as long as it can save electricity, do not care to pay more electricity bills, is to express clearly willing to pay more electricity tariff position, do not want money to restart the nuclear power plant.
