2010 LED industry outlook

Although the LED industry agreed that the LED application will eventually for the majority of the lighting market, however, as the stage of LED lighting, the price is still expensive, as compared to kilolumen units, the price of SUNCOO LED fluorescent lamp 10 times, resulting in the overall lighting market penetration in 2009 LED is less than 0.5%. Estimated in 2012 when the LED luminous efficiency of 130 lm/W, and the cost of LED per thousand lumens is $5, is a large number of LED lighting is used when the.

Before the LED lighting market took off, another LED application has been in full swing - that is, large size LCD display with LED backlight. In terms of conventional NB, every 2 NB in 2009, there are 1 units have been using LED backlight, so LED NB can be described as a national model.

2009 LED TV mainly in Samsung Electronics (Samsung ELectronics) under the push, triggering other TV manufacturers to follow up, penetration from 0.3% in 2008, up to the year of 2009, shipments also grew by nearly 13 times compared with in 2008. To 2010 LED TV also show a significant growth, estimates of each of the 100 LCD TV, 15 is LED TV, and each of the 3 LED TV, 2 South Korean manufacturers.

The LED monitor, the pace of development of NB and LED is later than LED TV, the main reason for the original LCD to monitor consumer price sensitivity is high, and the LED monitor is not easy to create product differentiation, so the estimated 2010 LED monitor penetration rate is only 10.8%. However, under the impetus of the TFT LCD plant, estimated 2011 LED monitor penetration will look at 21.6%.

If the comparison of the size of the LCD display with LED backlight source number, to a single product, the most used LED TV to 40 inches models, for example, up to 576, LED NB of the times. If the calculation of the large size LCD display LED backlight using a total number in 2010 as an example, the LED TV LED required a number for 13 billion, 2012 will reach 28 billion 900 million, far higher than the 2012 LED NB and LED using a total number of monitors (2 plus 12 billion 900 million). Thus, LED TV is the main driving force for the next 3 years to drive the growth of the LED industry.
