LED lighting
LED lighting
into two categories . Light-emitting diode (LED) as a light source of new lighting , known semiconductor lighting , LED lighting referred to as the main semiconductor lighting industry called the LED lighting industry . LED lighting industry chain includes upstream raw materials, equipment ( single chip ) and epitaxial growth ; chip manufacturing midstream ; packaging and product development, production and application of downstream ; supporting industries , including related equipment , accessories and materials. Upstream high technical content, capital investment, massive impact , high profit margins , LED light colors and luminous efficiency and production of LED materials and process-related and upstream accounting for about LED manufacturing costs 70% of the LED industry is extremely important ; midstream technology and capital -intensive sectors , the chip is the most competitive part of the patent , but with a large investment intensity characteristics of the slow effect ; downstream sectors , including development and production of LED packaging and lighting applications , and is most closely associated with the market sectors , technology content is relatively low , the investment threshold is too low , so it is the largest LED industry and the fastest growing areas .

International LED Lighting Industry Status LED lighting industry is in a period of rapid development , the global LED industry can be divided into four regions . First, Europe and America, with general lighting as the main direction , emphasizing high reliability and high brightness products. Second, Japan, the most comprehensive technology , whether it is general lighting , or backlit display , both with strong strength , its direction both general lighting , automotive , mobile and TV. Third, Korea and Taiwan region of China , to the laptop display backlight , LED-TV backlight and phone backlight is the main direction of large shipments , low price , low margin . Fourth, the Chinese mainland , mainly to yellow green , the main outdoor display, advertising screen , lights in the field .

In the domestic industrial policy and international market demand double pull , LED lighting products market in China is also accelerating development. Currently, the global LED production transferred to China , about 50% of the global LED packaging and LED application more than 60% are in China . China has become the world's fastest growing semiconductor lighting industrial area .

Domestic LED lighting industry development policy by virtue of the inherent advantages of energy saving , LED lighting industry has become the green revolution started strong engine , known as the " golden cross point of the new sources and new energy ," continued support of national and local government levels . In early 2006 , the State Council issued the " Long-term Scientific and Technological Development Plan ", the " energy-efficient , long-life semiconductor lighting products " included in long-term planning of the first areas of focus ( energy ) first priority themes ( industrial energy efficiency ) , attracted wide attention at home and abroad ; same year in October , the national " Eleventh Five-Year " Plan 863 "Semiconductor lighting Project" was officially launched major projects . January 10, 2008 , the Ministry of Finance , the National Development and Reform Commission ( hereinafter referred to as the " NDRC " ) jointly issued the " financial subsidies to promote efficient lighting products fund management Interim Measures " , to promote the rapid development of LED industry. November 4, 2011 , by the National Development and Reform Commission jointly issued by five ministries " gradual ban on the import and sale of ordinary incandescent lighting showroom ," made ​​it clear that will phase out incandescent light, and plans to October 1, 2016 , general incandescent will completely withdraw from the market . NDRC also organized the drafting of the semiconductor lighting industry, " second five" plan , and the Ministry of Finance and green lighting policy reference , study and formulate measures to encourage the promotion of LED . Promulgation and implementation of this measure will be China's lighting industry has played a huge role in promoting.

Meanwhile , in the "five " emission reduction in the background, the Chinese government also introduced a series of lighting for public policies to encourage and accelerate China's environmental protection , energy saving and emission reduction pace , expanding domestic demand, LED products , LED lighting products to accelerate the promotion of application areas . Including the " city of ten thousand ", " thousand one hundred thousand ", " urban green lighting " and other related systems engineering , and promote awareness of LED lighting products , to create a good market space.

With LED role in energy conservation, development of related industrial restructuring , transformation of economic development and other aspects of further demonstrated that China is expected to introduce more effective measures to promote the development of LED industry , its market space policy space and has great potential to improve .

The status quo of China's LED lighting industry standardization After nearly a decade of development, China's LED industry basically formed a relatively complete industrial chain. At the same time , the development , the establishment of standards for LED lighting standards system has entered a rapid development stage . At present , the domestic standard LED semiconductor lighting project involved have basically covered all aspects of the epitaxial chips, packaged devices , products, applications, test equipment and other industrial chain.

The status quo of China's LED lighting industry distribution ( a ) in the "National Semiconductor Lighting Project" to promote , China has established a Shanghai , Xiamen, Dalian , Nanchang , Shenzhen, Yangzhou and Shijiazhuang seven National Semiconductor Lighting Project Industrialization Base . Domestic LED industry distribution as follows :

( 1 ) Pearl River : mainly concentrated in Shenzhen , Zhongshan, Foshan , Huizhou, Guangzhou, Jiangmen and Dongguan and other places. Pearl River Delta region is one of the semiconductor lighting industrial development of the most active and fastest growing region , package, and application of the largest in the country , recently , investment activity from the market, following the transfer of large foreign companies . The most obvious advantage is the market competitive advantage . LED lighting market in Guangdong accounted for 50% of the country . Among them, Guangzhou industrial base focused on research and development , testing, design and other high-end service platform and downstream packaging field , Shenzhen Semiconductor Lighting Industry has formed "Sapphire - epi - Grain - Packaging - application" complete industrial chain, Jiangmen focused on the downstream packaging , applications, and has been up and epitaxy midstream chip manufacturing extension .

market that is affected by the blitz . The logic behind the market speculation that the United States in 2014 to ban incandescent light , LED lighting is expected to replicate last year's European market . Industry sources admitted that the United States is different from the domestic sales channels , marketing is not easy. Nevertheless, the general manager of the sun lighting the official Yong still optimistic: " 2014 , the industry profit growth of at least 20% ."

2013 , LED lighting products in the field of commercial lighting and home lighting shine , LED interior lighting applications for the first time beyond the outdoor landscape lighting to more than 80 % growth rate . Hot downstream lighting field , but also benefit the upstream LED industry chain enterprises.

"This year will bear fruit for commercial lighting , home lighting will prompt start ." Brave officer in the Engineering industry and research emerging industry investment strategy conference for this year's market confidence. He believes that the downstream market opened, will bring huge profits of the whole industry chain , the upstream chip overcapacity situation has been effectively alleviated.

Over the past few years , the local government introduced on imports of LED epitaxial silicon production equipment subsidies, resulting in a large number of upstream chip manufacturers outsourcing production equipment , resulting in local overcapacity ( low -power chip oversupply ) . However , last year, LED lighting market starts to digest some capacity. "The current situation, the chip market has basically reached equilibrium ." Said senior engineer Zhang Xiaofei LED president told reporters .

In this situation , the domestic chip manufacturers leading enterprises Sanan Optoelectronics recently launched a private placement to raise funds , the original capacity expansion doubled.

" Good business, in 2014 profit should be at least doubled , the profit growth rate of only 50% of the companies may have problems ." Official Yong believes that the capital markets LED sector experienced a rise in the last year, the majority of listed companies can deliver market expectations. However, under the trend of industry consolidation , financial strength is not strong small businesses will have a crisis .

During the two sessions, Li Keqiang has proposed to accelerate the development and application of energy-saving technologies and products, energy-saving environmental protection industry into a vibrant sunrise industry. Implementation of building energy efficiency improvements, energy-saving products Huimin engineering, the development of clean production, green low-carbon technologies and circular economy, improve the ability to respond to climate change.

LED lighting as an important energy saving products, has continued to gain popularity, deep into the rural market. With the standard of living in rural areas gradually increased, they are also rising level of demand for new products. One can imagine that this emerging industry, how attractive is a big cake.

Government attaches importance to product used properly, this is good news. However, according to the reporter visited understood that the current rural market on the use of LED, still there are many drawbacks. Too much emphasis on energy efficiency, willing to spend big money in accordance with the solar LED lights; product quality, but off, there is serious bad light; sales maintenance can not keep up, after experiencing the natural environment of the test, there is no timely maintenance, resulting in a huge waste.

In addition, in the civilian market, the price of LED lights is still high, some people can accept new things, but often the price is low quality, but hard to select products, making lamp life is too short, the user is also a hit, can not form continuity. Cheap and brand difficult to balance that with a good brand, if the price is not attractive and can not gain, which requires open price war. Regardless of price or brand, which are needed for the LED enterprises try to balance the place.
