High power LED lighting development and industrialization included in 08 major projects in Tianjin

High power LED lighting product development and industrialization projects have been included in the Tianjin in 2008 20 independent innovation and industrialization of major projects.

When you walk into the new campus of Tianjin University of Technology during the day, you won't feel any different from other schools. But when the night comes, you may be told that nearly 3500 lights on campus for all of the LED (LED) light source - here built China's first urban lighting demonstration project.

Not only that, Tianjin University of Technology semiconductor lighting engineering research and development center will also work with LED makers -- the world famous American company CREE to start substantive cooperation, semiconductor lighting R & D jointly participate in energy conservation and environmental protection, Tianjin was listed as the "11th Five-Year plan" semiconductor lighting industry 12 major science and technology projects will be one of the resulting into the high-end, high quality andinternationalization.

As after incandescent lamp, fluorescent lamp, high pressure gas lamps of the fourth generation light source, LED lamp brightness under the same lighting conditions, the average saving more than 50% than ordinary lamps, and does not contain harmful substances such as mercury and lead, the average service life is 3-5 times of ordinary lamps. Semiconductor lighting has been included in the national medium and long-term science and technology development plan, in 11th Five-Year will be the focus of guidance and support.

With the growing global energy crisis, long life, energy saving, green environmental protection of semiconductor lighting has become a recognized energy conservation and environmental protection. Ai Yamin, deputy director of VTEDA, W, Tianjin economic and Technological Development Zone, said in an interview with reporters: "we will fully support the promotion and application of LED lighting engineering. With the progress of technology and the decline in the cost of light, will gradually make the LED light source covering the entire region, in order to promote energy-saving emission reduction, environmental protection, the establishment of a conservation oriented society to do their part. "

It is reported that the semiconductor lighting is one of the 20 key development projects in Tianjin, high-power LED lighting product development and industrialization projects have been included in the 2008 of the 20 major projects of independent innovation industrialization. Dr. Niu Pingjuan professor of Tianjin University of Technology Center for semiconductor research said: "we have developed a new type of semiconductor energy-saving lamps, 20W-120W Garden lights and a full range of indoor lighting and other lighting, 11 patents. Initially developed in line with national standards, such as high beam lamps, in the application of another direction is the development of LED automotive headlamp technology. After the successful development of the product, it will be applied directly to the series of cars produced by Tianjin FAW to realize the benefits of industrialization. "

"LED City Lighting" is aimed at the establishment of LED global city lighting demonstration area of green action offered by CREE, by the local government and LED manufacturers to jointly promote the application of LED in basic lighting facilities, in order to save energy, protect the environment, reduce maintenance cost, to provide more high-quality lighting. At present, LED city lighting system has been in Toronto, Canada, the United States, Austen and other 4 cities.
