Is it a blessing or a curse for the government to subsidize LED?

Foshan, Dongguan, Zhongshan and other cities are also actively respond to the provincial government policy, the introduction of subsidy programs, and vigorously promote the application of LED lighting products. Foshan, Chancheng, which 15 million subsidy LED lighting products, the highest subsidy of Dongguan single project up to 10 million, LED electricity saving all subsidies. However, Guangdong has become a national LED lighting demonstration Province, at the same time, to some extent, also affected the fair competition in the market, bringing serious pressure on production capacity.

Guangdong in recent years, the introduction of policies to support the development of LED industry, in support of the development of the LED industry in the forefront of the country, such as in the 12th Five-Year period, the Guangdong provincial government invested 4 per year.

500 million yuan to set up special funds for the development of the LED industry; display released in May 2012 "Guangdong province to promote the use of LED lighting products plan", Guangdong province LED industry scale in 12th Five-Year will reach the end of 500 billion yuan due to government subsidies.

Under the guidance of a series of policies, the introduction of a lot of Guangdong province to promote the use of LED lighting product implementation plan, the full opening of LED lighting applications.

For a large area of Guangdong province LED subsidy policy, Shenzhen semiconductor industry association secretary general Cai Jinjiang has his own opinion.

He believes that the advantages of Guangdong province is a sound market mechanism, and government subsidies to become a double-edged sword, affecting the orderly market competition, so many leading enterprises have lost the market.

At present, there are 4000 ~ LED enterprises in province, which has become the LED province with no core competitiveness in Guangdong province".

He said: PV does not bring pressure on Guangdong, while the LED industry to bring serious pressure on production capacity in Guangdong.

For the LED subsidy policy, the Shanghai Institute of lighting honorary chairman Zhang Hai is clear: government subsidies should not be given to the enterprise, but should be directly subsidized to the people.

For China government subsidies LED leading enterprises, micro semiconductor equipment company global president of Greater China business group general manager Zhu Xinping said: "the government grant does not make Chinese LED internationalized, but less aggressive, exacerbate the adverse market competition, the government should give MOCVD and LED link to cancel subsidies.

For example, he said, Taiwan will be specially designed High-tech Industrial Park, specializing in the development of science and technology team, and then sell the technology to the enterprise or the transfer of the enterprise, rather than the funds scattered to the enterprise.
