LED in order to enter the solid-state lighting applications, government support and guidance is required to replace the traditional light and create new technologies. Currently, the LED industry is facing two bottlenecks, high production costs and imperfect supply chain, which may give consumers a problem after installation.

Industry manufacturers pointed out that the LED will continue to improve the efficiency of light, in 2010 before the Taiwan manufacturing LED light efficiency will reach 90lm/W, then the biggest challenge is the price problem.
