Discussion on the forecast of the ten major trends of LED industry in 2015

Review: 2014, for many LED manufacturers is a bumper year, but also a challenging year. Although the first half of 2014 from the lighting market demand is stronger than expected, and even caused a shortage of LED phenomenon. But because the client repeat orders and inventory of the end lighting pathway emerges gradually in the second half of the year, many manufacturers feel the obvious market demand and price competition of the frozen pressure. Therefore, for many LED vendors, the second half of the performance of two kinds of sentiment, such as the warm water to wash the three.

In the face of the upcoming 2015, the industry also for the LED industry put forward some views and prospects. And for the next year, the main highlights of the ten major market trends.

1 LED expansion plan is still dependent on government subsidies, China is still the largest MOCVD installed area

Industry estimates, in 2014 the number of new global MOCVD installed capacity will reach 239 units. Observed from the installation of the region, China is still the largest MOCVD installed area. In 2015, Chinese area because part of the local government is still continuing out of subsidies, so in 2015 China area still has installed capacity of more than 170. At present, China local government subsidies with the MOCVD equipment price adjustment subsidy, currently a MOCVD grant money from the past RMB1000 million dropped to 5 million yuan RMB, but for many manufacturers is still profitable. Overall, due to the expansion of LED manufacturers plan depends on local government grants, so the future of LED chip manufacturers will show the phenomenon of large hengda.

2 rival, China LED market share continued to increase

With China's LED chip technology upgrade and capacity release, making China's chip production accounted for 27% of the proportion of global LED chip output by 2013, is expected to be expected to upgrade to the year of 2014. In the past, China's LED backlight or lighting applications rely on Taiwan funded or foreign-funded enterprises is no longer the situation. Due to the constant increase in the proportion of domestic manufacturers of domestic chip manufacturers, the price is also quite competitive. Chinese manufacturers in the global LED industry market share will gradually increase.

3.LED lighting customers continue to look for lower cost solutions

LED lighting market demand is due to the decline in the price of terminal lighting products are stimulated a lot of demand. The main driving force for the growth of LED lighting products in 2015 is still mainly from the LED bulb, LED lamps and other alternative light source products, so lighting customers for the price and cost of LED as the main consideration. And has a good performance in the price of power LED can meet these LED lighting products continued price requirements, such as 3030 and 2835 LED has become the mainstream market. The future of LED manufacturers will still be looking for better heat dissipation material, through the large current drive to reduce the number of LED use, and even COB LED has gradually been favored by lighting customers. In addition to the price of LED, LED lighting manufacturers have begun to focus on other components, such as power driven components, hoping to achieve a lower cost solution through the overall system design.
