2012 global high brightness LED output forecast will be close to $10 billion

High brightness LED market recently by the rapid growth of backlight lighting applications and large size panel driven by popular demand and supply. From the topology Research Institute predicted that in 2009 the global LED output value will reach $7 billion 15 million, of which high brightness LED value estimate of about $5 billion 472 million, accounting for about 78%. Global LED production is expected to grow to $10 billion 844 million by 2012, high brightness LED output value of $9 billion 760 million, accounting for up to 90%.

The topology of production and research, the current high brightness LED application to mobile phone, but with the mobile phone market is saturated, growth slowed down, is expected this year with LED global mobile phone output will only a small increase compared to last year 0.5%, next year, output growth rate is only around 1%. LED industry in the future to support the growth momentum, the recent large size panel backlight market will be dominated by long-term lighting market.

According to the topology prediction, this year the global display | display device with LED value of the annual growth rate is estimated to be about 32% next year, the annual growth rate is estimated to be about 34%. Large size panel with LED output value of the annual growth rate of about 27% this year, next year's growth rate of about 38%. LED annual output value of lighting this year, with an annual growth rate of about 9%, but with the policy to promote the implementation of energy-efficient lighting and street lighting, is expected next year with the annual output value of LED lighting will reach 75%.

As for the traffic signal, LED vehicle market value, the topology is expected next year will have more than 2 digit annual growth rate of. Traffic signal LED in 2009, the annual growth rate of output value of about 10%, but next year, the annual output value is estimated to increase by up to 16%. LED car production this year, the annual growth rate is estimated at about 9% next year, the growth rate is estimated at 17%.

The application of the market proportion, the topology is expected this year, the global LED production value estimate of about $7 billion 15 million, of which mobile device market accounted for about 37%, the display mark accounted for approximately 28%, accounting for about 14% of electronic equipment, automotive lighting accounted for 12%, accounting for 8%, accounting for about 1% of light. It is expected that by 2012, the global LED output value will reach $10 billion 844 million, of which, the display mark applications proportion will increase to 42%, mobile devices accounted to 23%, lighting, car will be increased to 14%, electronic equipment accounted for 6%, indicating lamp 1%.

Individual manufacturers, topstone pointed out that past high brightness LED manufacturers to Japanese manufacturers, for example in 2006, Japan in the high brightness LED output value reached more than 40%, about 20% manufacturers in Taiwan, South Korea, China, accounted for 7%, 5%, the United States, Europe accounted for 12% and 15% respectively. But this year the proportion of Japanese manufacturers will be reduced to 37%, the United States, Europe fell to 7%, respectively, South Korea, China, Taiwan, China, respectively, in accordance with the order to upgrade to 11%, 24%, 9%. Among them, South Korea and Mainland China in full cooperation with national policy and resources development, coupled with the manufacturers themselves are also actively layout, in the high brightness LED industry, the proportion of the fastest.

Taiwan LED company is currently in the global high brightness LED market, market share of about 24%, the topology is expected by 2011 is expected to continue to improve slightly to 25%. Despite the lack of effective policy support, but the company's own efforts and the positive layout of the electronics group, is to maintain the Taiwan LED industry in the global market to maintain a place one of the main reasons.
