Chairman of the international lighting Committee: LED Street prospects

Today morning, to attend the 2009 cross-strait industrial docking forum and photoelectric chairman of the International Commission on illumination Frances Hans Berger accepted an interview with reporters, he told LED for road lighting prospects good, that Chinese walk in the forefront of the application of LED lighting technology.

In Xiamen in the evening, Frances Hans Berger on the field experience of the LED street lamp, Xiamen Road, Tiger Road new clothes. He said that although LED has been widely used in the field of landscape lighting, but in the field of road lighting, it is a new thing". With the development of LED technology and the emergence of high power LED, it is possible for LED to be used for road lighting today.
