By the end of 2011's NB panel will all use LED backlight technology

It is reported that by the end of 2011's NB panel backlight will all use LED, an average of more than the LED backlight market value, as for the LED TV panel, AUO a small amount of production in 2008, mainly in the 40 inch panel, TV backlight panel with LED because there are the problems to consider whether to follow NB step panel replacement, still needs to be assessed.

Compared with 2000, in 2008 the area of the glass substrate's increased 22 times, while the next 2 years, the glass substrate space is expected to expand 1.4 times compared to 2008, in this case, it will consume a lot of energy. In order to promote the green commitment and AUO, has set out a clear goal of ecological benefit index "2010 877", also is compared with 2004, 2010, the utilization rate of resource recycling AUO will reach 80%, greenhouse gas emissions will be reduced 70%, and the water will drop 70% target.

AUO is home to the first Taiwan area "EPD third" global environmental declaration certificate of the company, the green commitment (AUO Green Solutions) the AUO will include green innovation, green procurement, green production, green logistics, green service and green regeneration 6 categories. In order to reduce the use of green innovation, will reduce the amount of mercury lamp, through innovative design, including 26 inch HD, 32 inch HD, 37 Inch and 46 inch Full HD Full HD panel, the power consumption can be reduced, the mercury content of 30%~50% 40%~50%.

It is understood that AUO has decided at the end of 2011, all of the NB panel will use LED backlight. "The market research agency estimates in 2011, the NB panel market using LED backlight penetration will reach 45%, while the estimated annual average AUO goals of their own use of LED backlight in 2011 will reach 87%, much higher than the market value.
