Economic downturn LED and solar industry focus

Affected by the global economic situation under the influence of the poor, according to the survey of Taiwan Optoelectronic Industry Association, in 2008 the total output value of 1 trillion and 480 billion yuan for Taiwan flat panel display (NT), the total output value of more than 07 years of decline of about 8%, is expected to total output value of 09 years and 08 years will remain unchanged in 2010 level, the total output value of Taiwan flat panel display industry was expected to have substantial growth about 12% to 1 trillion and 660 billion yuan. Its industry analysts said that 09 years, the layout of the flat panel display industry in Taiwan are moving towards electronic paper, touch panel and other emerging industries, as well as LED and solar industry.

The optoelectronics industry association industry analysts said, in addition to new product layout, LED and solar energy industry is a key industry layout, AUO, CMO Panel two group have entered the emerging industries. The establishment of AUO Lunda into the LED industry, in addition, including its CCFL, Wellypower kaiding in Dachang LED package, but also in the establishment of AUO General Manager's Office energy project, the solar energy industry, the factory to the end of the first quarter will be completed, expected in the second half of 2009 to complete the trial. The CMO is also engaged in the LED industry, in addition to investment canyuan, East Bay, also set up a subsidiary Qili photoelectric foot LED LED backlight module to downstream packaging applications; in the solar part, also set up energy in Chi Mei last year, the first production line capacity planning for 25 to 30MW, the fastest mass production in 2009 quarter. In addition, including component manufacturers also actively involved in the field of LED and solar energy, due to the sharp growth of LEDNB backlight, photoelectric, radiant, Dayi, Kneip, will increase the proportion of LED light source.
