2013, the proportion of the increase in the proportion of street lamps in Taiwan, but profit margins remain to be seen in LED

LED lighting applications continue to grow, in the outdoor lighting, especially in recent years, especially the most eye-catching LED street signs. In Taiwan area, the current market size of about 1 million 800 thousand Taiwan street lamp, street lamp replacement together with LED earlier, and in 2012 the government released 2 billion yuan street standard case, estimated to be purchasing about 200000 LED road lamps, estimated by the end of 2013, Taiwan has installed the LED street lamp can reach about 300000, LED lighting penetration will reach 15%-20%.

It is reported that in 2012 the release of 2 billion yuan LED street lamps procurement budget, most counties and cities have mostly bid, but most have not yet been completed, is expected in 2013 will continue to install lighting. As for Keelung, Hsinchu, Chiayi and other regions, the total amount of LED street lamp procurement budget budget of about 600 million yuan, there is no tender, is expected to be held in 2013.

Overall, the current number of about 1 million 800 thousand Taiwan street lamp, in this wave of 2 billion yuan purchase standard case can purchase about 200000 LED lights to calculate, by the end of 2013, Taiwan will have 30 million LED lights, LED lights up to 15%-20%. The overall permeability. The Institute believes that compared to other regions of the world, LED street lamp in Taiwan installation proportion is high.

Although the mainland has shouted ten city of 10000 LED street lamp construction projects, but the total number of street lamps near the estimated 20 million, even if the 10000 LED street lamps are installed, the mainland's LED street lamp installation rate is still low.

However, early Taiwan LED street lighting system to adopt the lowest standard case, which is the lowest price bid later because manufacturers, manufacturers complain can not make money, once into the most advantageous tender, which at the same time into price, specifications, and are in compliance with the terms of localization and so on project appraisal, originally intended to improve the bidder the profit space, but also tend to price to win. Therefore, in the end this wave of LED street lamp replacement case can bring substantial profit margins for the LED street lamp suppliers, remains to be seen.
