LED street lamp Market: business development model and product quality is the key

With the development of the economy and the change of lifestyle around the world, whether in daily life or construction of lighting needs in the pursuit of the original color, the function is also to the high efficiency, energy direction, driven by the LED lighting market to become the focus of concern.

In recent years, with the national semiconductor lighting project, the deepening of the implementation of LED in the building, exterior lighting, landscape lighting and street lighting applications gradually increased, the community landscape, market demand has also increased rapidly, in 2008, the scale of Chinese LED landscape lighting market reached 4 billion 430 million yuan, growth of 37.3% in 2007. Landscape lighting has become the first application area of LED lighting market. Beneficial to the government's strong push, LED street lamp Market in the past two years has been rapid development. 2008, China's LED street lamp market demand reached 560 million yuan, an increase of more than in 2007 of 127.1%. The next few years, in ten city lights, one hundred thousand lights and other slogans Trinidad policies, Chinese LED streetlight market still maintain a rapid pace of market development, is expected to 2012, the market size in 2008 will be 560 million yuan rose to 3 billion 960 million yuan, the annual compound growth rate of 63%.

Find suitable business development model

In the rapid growth of market demand driven by China has emerged to KingSun, cled, Henderson as the representative of the outstanding local enterprises. In addition, optimistic about the prospects for the development of the Chinese market, China's enterprises in Taiwan also actively seize the mainland market, the increasingly fierce market competition. However, due to the initial installation cost of LED street lamp is still higher than the traditional street lamp products, in addition to the product itself, the business development model has become the key to the healthy development of the market.

From the current situation, due to the installation of LED street lamp price is too high to result in initial cost is higher than the traditional street more than 2 times, and the LED lamp with energy saving, bring long life, maintenance and other advantages of economic benefits, through many years before to emerge, the economic recovery cycle longer and bring some obstacles to LED Street mass market development. At this stage, due to the LED street lamp market is still the main application of the pilot, the development of the market is mainly dependent on the government's strong support. But if you want to carry out a wide range of promotion, relying solely on government support will be difficult to afford the high cost of installation of LED street early, is not conducive to the sustained and rapid development of the market. In order to solve the problem of high cost of LED street lamp installation and the pressure of the project unit, we have already begun to try new business development model in some pilot projects. At this stage, there is no cost of energy, said the contract energy management has been developed for many years in Europe and America, but in China it is a newly emerging business development model has gradually been of concern to everyone. Specific to the LED street market, the development model of road maintenance, saving return ", the annual savings in electricity payment cost of the project, the project contractor and to use a win-win situation. At present, in addition to the application of this model in the LED street lamp, in other LED lighting engineering has also been gradually applied.

Light, heat and power system still need to improve

Although in the government's strong support, Chinese LED street market has achieved rapid development, and in the next few years will remain in the rapid development, but can not be ignored, in order to obtain long-term development of real LED street market is still facing severe challenges. At present, in addition to the high cost, the main problems of LED street lamp products include: light source, heat dissipation and power supply system. From the light point of view, on the one hand is the need to further enhance the luminous efficiency of LED, on the other hand is to improve the arrangement of light sources. At present, the market of a large part of the LED road lamp, LED light source is arranged through the lattice structure, the biggest advantage of this method is to solve the problem of heat dissipation, but this structure due to the horizontal irradiation distance is not enough, the light distribution range is larger, so it cannot achieve the centralized distribution of light reflecting cup, the need to achieve independent light distribution the two lens, the two lens for the material requirements higher, at present the two lenses of different materials have some problems, affect the use effect of the product. If the treatment is not good, the lens will also affect the lighting effect and clarity. In order to improve the above problems, some enterprises have introduced the use of LED lamp light source module integrated mode, the source package reduces the circuit board welding and finished at work due to the emergence of a light source arranged or several road products lack of light. In addition, the utility model can realize the centralized light distribution by using the reflecting cup, and can also avoid the negative influence caused by the use of the two lens. However, it is undeniable that the use of such packaging light source will face a more severe heat challenge. From the supply perspective, different from the traditional lighting products can be directly connected to the AC mains, LED belongs to the low voltage drive device, and constant current drive, which requires the power supply system in LED street redesign. At present, the cost of LED power supply accounts for about 10%-20% of the total product cost, and the power supply system will not affect the life of the product to a great extent.

In the rapid development of the market demand, enterprises should keep calm thinking, choosing a suitable business development mode, on the other hand is to further improve the quality of the products, to ensure the prosperity of the market will ultimately flower briefly as the broad-leaved epiphyllum long-term healthy development of the market.
