Observation: LED energy-saving lamps China is a big producer is the use of small countries

Ministry of Finance in 2008 to implement the "efficient lighting products to promote financial subsidies Interim Measures" has been included in the semiconductor (LED) lighting products, but LED lighting products are not yet complete national standards

These days, Xue Wenyan, general manager of Pujiang Star Co., Ltd. Zhejiang is mixed. Hi is: her company's production of solid LED lighting - LED trunk road lamp has just been selected by the Zhejiang provincial government, "Zhejiang province energy saving technology, product promotion oriented directory". Worry is: LED lighting up really difficult to promote.

LED is the abbreviation of semiconductor lighting. It is a solid state light source which is made of semiconductor chips, and the efficiency of converting electric energy into light energy is as high as 80%. In the Olympic venues, LED technology as a representative of independent innovation, is widely used.

It is understood that the LED energy consumption is only 10% of incandescent lamp, fluorescent lamp 50%; it uses solid package, service life can reach 100 thousand hours, is 10 times of the fluorescent lamp, incandescent lamp 100 times; it does not require the use of glass vacuum packaging, no toxic gas and mercury pollution.

"LED lighting technology will change our world once again. Xue Wenyan told reporters. It is understood that in recent years, the world's three largest lighting industry giant - Ge, PHILPS and Rahm, have set up the semiconductor lighting company, developed countries have started the national project, hoping to seize the commanding heights of new industries. The embarrassment of energy saving products

China is the world's second largest power generation, China's total electricity generation capacity of 32559 kwh in the year of 2007, the annual lighting power up to 390 billion kwh, equivalent to the total electricity consumption in the UK a year.

Since the 90s of the last century, the main production of energy-saving lamps are widely used in the country, and I made energy-saving lamps are mainly used to meet the export, the domestic penetration rate is not high. Data show that in 2003 China's production of energy-saving lamps for 1 billion, accounting for 70% of the world market, while domestic sales of only 350 million.

July 1st, the reporter interviewed the senior engineer of Hangzhou Dianzi University Luo friends. According to him, since 2007, North America, Australia are prohibited the use of incandescent legislation. In the spring of 2007, the European Union reached an agreement to ask the EU countries to phase out incandescent lamps and replace them with rare earth energy-saving fluorescent lamps.

Luo friends said that Zhejiang is the world's largest production base for energy-saving lamps, accounting for about 50% of the world's output, but the export of energy-saving lamps in Zhejiang, the production of energy-saving lamps is a big country but unfortunately the application of small countries. LED as a more advanced than energy-saving lamps, the current products are basically sold abroad.

It is understood that in China, LED industry has initially formed a relatively complete industrial chain. LED industry has gone through the purchase of devices, buy chips, buy epitaxial film after the road, has initially achieved the independent production of epitaxial wafers and chips. At this stage, the number of workers in the industry reached 50 Yuwanduo, more than and 20 research institutions and more than 4 thousand enterprises. 2006, China's LED industry output value reached 10 billion 550 million yuan, of which the output value of packaging industry reached $8 billion 750 million. When will China bid farewell to the "Edison era"?

How to get rid of the use of small countries? How to popularize energy-saving products? This has aroused people's thinking.

Luo friends said that as the world's largest producer of lighting appliances, the second largest exporter of China, in 2003 the establishment of the national LED lighting project coordination leading group, officially launched the national LED lighting project. But the reality is not optimistic, China's economically developed areas of the city about 70% users to enable energy-saving lamps, rural and underdeveloped areas still use incandescent lamp 80%, LED many people have not seen, have not heard of.

Why such an energy-saving effect of LED promotion? - seems to be too expensive.

A 3 Watt LED bulb, about to sell $seventy or eighty. For the family, can not accept the five or six times higher than the energy-saving lamps, incandescent lamps more than 10 times the price.

This requires us to change the business and the people of the price of some of the ideas. Shanghai Oriental Pearl, for example, when the original LED lighting transformation, the cost of nearly 4 million yuan, but ultimately proved that this decision is correct. Oriental Engineering Department personnel: after the transformation operation to now, nearly every month saving 5 kwh a year Wanduoqian, saving the cost is about 500000 yuan. Today, the light is to save the electricity on the basic recovery of the original input costs. It is reported that tasted the sweetness, the Oriental Pearl is planning to replace all the lights inside the enterprise into a LED lamp.

Some experts believe that, as with the LED lamp, a lot of energy-saving products or energy-saving technology in the early stages of its promotion, are in the market cold. Promote the use of energy-saving products, of course, need to change the concept of the public, but it is more necessary to promote and support the government.

Director, Zhejiang Comprehensive Energy Technology Supervision Corps Department Senior Engineer Wang Yunpeng said, LED in China is being extended to the city landscape, commercial large screen, traffic lights and other fields, lights, advertising lamp and high-power LED lighting is also in the promotion of.

But Luo friends think, LED promotion also need time. The Ministry of Finance in 2008 began to implement the "efficient lighting products to promote financial subsidies to fund management Interim Measures" have been included in the semiconductor (LED) lighting products LED lighting products, but there is no complete national standard.
