Global energy saving era of high brightness LED lighting promising

LED has been widely used in landscape lighting, outdoor lighting, decorative lighting, and general lighting is the future of the LED industry attention. In addition, due to the shadow of the energy crisis, the world has entered the era of energy saving, countries are actively through legislation and government guidance, etc., with a LED lamp to replace incandescent lamps, LED lighting market demand prospects.

According to the Taiwan area / IEK report, LED limited to high price, the industry standard is undetermined, and light, life, reliability and other technical issues need to be resolved, in 2007 the global LED lighting industry market size of $330 million, is one of the main source for the building lighting market as a whole accounted for about 45%. Market size is expected to reach $1 billion 600 million in 2012, 2007~2012 CAGR of 37%.

From mobile phone backlight to diversified applications

LED from the beginning of the application on the brilliant constantly. From the 6.3V indicator, Christmas decoration small milk bubble, traffic lights, etc., while the single color bar screen along the way with the railway, the stock market, the development of the banking industry step by step growth. If there is no LED, the phone should be how to design? In addition, the high reliability of the car needs LED, compact notebook can not be separated from LED, colorful stage needs LED deduction, lighting is to stimulate domestic demand LED. "Guo Yi Xingye science and Technology (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., deputy director of the product of the text of a lively description of the LED from scratch, from a single application to the full flowering of the development process in various fields.

Si Microelectronics Co., the company's sales and marketing vice president Lv Chengchang also pointed out that in the mobile terminal products, mobile phone application driven by strong, high brightness LED (efficiency > 110lm/W) application market in the years 2002~2006 has maintained an annual growth rate of 35~46%. And while people are worried about the LED market driving force shows weakness caused by mobile phone market growth tends to be saturated, high brightness LED products industrialization and LED market price continued to decline, driven by its application to the diversified development, emerging applications market continues to appear in recent years, LED rapid increase in market size. LED applications have begun to start from the small size of the phone TFTLCD backlight, to large size TFTLCD backlight source, automotive lighting, decorative lighting and other diversified applications.

In the automotive lighting for example, divided into internal and external application of vehicle LED vehicle, including internal instrument panels, air conditioning sound lights and internal reading lamps; external use include third brake lights, tail lights, lights, side lights and other direction. At present, in addition to headlights because of the distance and brightness and other issues, only a small amount of use, the interior and exterior lighting of the car has been widespread LED. Yang Xin Polytron Technologies Inc (GL) in automotive electronics products are mainly outside the car lights, the company's global marketing director Qiu Yiru said: "the car light requirements of high luminosity, but strict color segmentation; car light source is the requirement for high efficiency, beam of Gao Guang. LED meets the requirements of the vehicle, can reduce the overall energy consumption efficiency of the vehicle, lighting induction speed is better than the general traditional bulb. "

In addition to the above applications, LED in the following four types of lighting also has great potential for development.

Portable lighting consumer portable lighting including flashlight, reading lamp and miner lamp, etc.. At present, consumer portable lighting overall market of about $1 billion, which accounted for the largest market share of the flashlight, LED in special and professional applications of the flashlight permeability of nearly 30%, mainly because of the special and professional application of flashlight on price sensitivity is relatively low in general consumers, if LED technology and price can be further improved, the future will be the opportunity to enter the general lighting with a flashlight, to further expand its market share. Expected to 2012 LED consumer portable lighting market revenue will reach $86 million.

Outdoor lighting LED outdoor lighting refers to the highway, roads and tunnels and other regional lighting equipment, including street lights, street lights, parking lights, park lights, etc.. Because road lighting driving safety considerations, to comply with road safety regulations, luminous flux, luminous efficiency and LED the current price is still with high pressure sodium lamp with a small distance, so in 2007 the global LED outdoor lighting market size of only $8 million, but as the technology continues to grow, LED prices continue to decline, and long service life the future development, there is still a chance, is expected to 2012 LED outdoor lighting will grow to $41 million, 2007~2012 compound annual growth rate of 120%.

Indoor display lighting retail display lighting in the world in 2007 revenues of approximately $19 million, accounting for about 6% of the overall market. In the exhibition, retail display not only needs a larger illumination range, but also need to show the characteristics of light source products, display many types of products, including clothing, cosmetics, food, jewelry and so on, how to use different lighting products showing a out of the ordinary characteristics is an important knowledge. LED in 2006 began to enter the retail display field, its main advantages include: 1.LED long life, can reduce the maintenance cost; 2.LED color, color temperature, color rendering variable, can be illuminated with different choices, different light source, greatly enhance the aesthetic effect of the show; 3.LED light in the infrared and ultraviolet can avoid the destruction of the lack of the product cost is low; the 4 optical fiber and the efficiency is high, the incandescent light bulb color fluorescent lamp is good. Driven by many advantages, is expected to 2012 LED retail display lighting revenue will reach $190 million, 2007~2012 CAGR of 59%.

Home lighting home lighting, including embedded lights, projection lamps, chandeliers, etc., according to OSRAM optical
