Why is the first LED Guangdong public lighting rather than home lighting?

Guangdong from ten cities to carry out ten thousand miles, thousands of miles of green demonstration cities such as demonstration projects, and now fully promote the application of LED public lighting, we have seen the government's active figure one hundred thousand". Why is the government so hard? Guangdong semiconductor lighting industry joint innovation center director Dr. Gui Shirong interpretation.

Reporter: why is the government so hard?

Gui Shirong: as an emerging industry, how to develop the LED industry, China has no precedent to follow. LED is now in the market cultivation period, the government involved in the promotion is very necessary. Developed countries generally encourage the development of independent innovation, the government's first purchase policy, the new research and development of strategic emerging products, expensive and unstable quality, the government must be the first buyer. Like the European Airbus Company, was not the production of aircraft, aircraft manufacturing industry has been the United States Boeing monopoly. At first Airbus was not optimistic about the aircraft produced, we fear that its technology is not. Moreover, the United States Boeing aircraft has been very mature, why do we have to buy Airbus at this time, the European government first through government procurement to support the development of airbus. Now the Airbus Company and Boeing has been on an equal footing. The same is true of the LED industry, which is now in urgent need of help. Guangdong vigorously promote LED, the purpose is to promote the development of LED technology is becoming more mature, better performance, more affordable, and ultimately pull the entire industry development LED.

Reporter: why is the first choice in the field of public lighting, rather than starting from home lighting?

Wang: public lighting resources in the hands of the government, the government is conducive to the rapid start of market promotion. At the same time, the implementation scheme is also proposed to the public lighting field of LED lighting for demonstration, through the promotion of social demonstration project of indoor lighting, LED lighting comprehensive guidance and related policies, accelerate the promotion of public lighting, advocate and promote the whole society to promote LED lighting products.

The development of LED industry, the most critical market applications. As governor Zhu Xiaodan in Guangdong province to promote the application of LED lighting products work conference pointed out that the further application of LED lighting products, is conducive to promoting the city energy-saving emission reduction, is conducive to marketing to promote the development of emerging industries, through the establishment of access standards to promote the LED industry innovation and development, is conducive to promoting the transformation of the mode of economic development through business model innovation.

Guangdong provincial science and technology department in 2009 began, it has organized a thousand miles of one hundred thousand high-power LED street lamps and other industrial demonstration projects, in terms of safety, reliability and other requirements of the pilot on the LED street lamp. Facts have proved that LED has matured in both economic and social benefits.

Reporter: so large-scale promotion of LED lamp applications, how to protect the investment recovery problem?

Gui Shirong: This is the program highlights. The provisions of the "security policy plan", the installation of the LED City, local finance from the city with electricity levy additional utilities in LED lighting renovation project funding, which is part of the use of funds, in accordance with the relevant provisions of the state and the province, itself for maintenance and reconstruction of municipal street lighting, and not much. Specifically, the province city construction levy standard of 1.4 cents / kWh, after calculation, the province's average tariff levied from the city with additional utilities out of 0.3 cents / kWh will pay the fees, and each city will be based on the actual project, the additional cost of city public utilities standards to determine the balance of investment, protect the city construction surcharge, can pay the benefits of energy saving street reconstruction.

The program also developed on encouraging the use of energy-efficient lighting products, the development of energy-saving services accounting policies and fiscal incentives to implement rules to ensure that the relevant policies can be landed, operable. On the one hand, institutions in accordance with the EMC contract to return the cost of energy consumption as the cost of energy expenditures, included in the annual budget. On the other hand, the use of contract energy management approach to the implementation of the LED transformation projects, respectively, to give financial incentives, income tax, three free half of three, value-added tax exemption and other preferential policies.

Reporter: a lot of LED products on the market, the promotion of public lighting, how to prevent the product is not standardized?

Gui Shirong: at present LED products, lack of technical standards, quality inspection to keep up with technology development, product quality is uneven, the bottleneck of the development of market competition disorder, Guangdong province took the lead in the country to promote the application of benchmarking system for the evaluation of LED products. Through the selection and the product quality is closely related to the index, use the experience of developed countries, to formulate a unified testing method for large scale application and has been widely acclaimed for regular testing products, representing the level of product innovation industry benchmark index. By comparing the benchmark index, product quality evaluation and classification.

The introduction of the "Guangdong green lighting demonstration city recommended procurement catalog", which is the promotion of LED application project acceptance and product quality control of an important basis and means. The province to promote the application of LED project must be included in the "directory" LED street lamp products.
