Taiwan region, the Ministry of economic cooperation and the establishment of standard LED street lamp demonstration zone in Taipei

In the Taiwan region, the Ministry of economic technology for many years to make up midwifery, learning, research and investment into the field of LED forward-looking technology research and development standards and other efforts, the third lighting revolution has officially arrived. In order to accelerate the industrialization, the implementation of energy-saving emission reduction policies in Taiwan, the Ministry of economic affairs and the Taipei municipal government on further cooperation before the establishment of LED lighting standard demonstration area, demonstration by ITRI and China appliances, lamps, crystal electric, UNITA, Qi Han, Lite Ambrose, etc. a Weiming LED lighting standards and quality research and Development Alliance firm the development of technology and products, in order to show the Taiwan area LED industrial technology.

The demonstration area in the light use is divided into 3 regions.; in the 228 Taipei Peace Park (Hengyang Road, Changde street to Ketagalan boulevard with 5 meter), following LED garden lamp and street lights; Fuzhou Street (Chongqing road to Roosevelt Road) is the main road with 8 meters high LED road lamp, Nanyang Street Xinyang street and lane (Xiangyang road to the road) is built and secondary Road Lane 5 meters high street LED.

In the garden lights to replace the existing 200W mercury lamp, in the primary and secondary roads and Lane Lane to replace the 200W, 400W mercury lamp and high pressure sodium lamp, after the completion of the modeling and distribution will give the public a new feeling. In addition, the total energy efficiency of the 3 area of up to 57%. If the future will Taiwan 1 million 600 thousand street lamp full facelift LED lamps, in terms of energy saving, can save about 1 billion 340 million of electricity per year, equivalent to 1.3 Shimen hydroelectric power plant generating capacity throughout the year, in terms of emissions, annual emissions of about 856 thousand tons, equivalent to the sum of 510 thousand cars per year of carbon emissions.

As for the economy, it is expected to directly drive the construction of more than 50 billion yuan in Taiwan NT public construction, and in the job market is also quite human demand expectations. In addition, the Standard Specification for most major or follow beyond the standard, so manufacturers in Taiwan after the purification of the domestic market, will greatly enhance the international competitiveness, is expected to be indirect export 300 billion yuan nt.

In Taiwan the Ministry of economic affairs chief Yin Qiming said, the yield of LED in Taiwan area is the highest one in the world, the output value is also the world's second; decided a key factor in the future global competitiveness of LED lighting products, the innovation lies in the establishment of complete LED application and the promotion of quality, high added value of LED standard. In view of this, the Taiwan Ministry of economic affairs to start a series of related policies, the development of LED lighting technology and standards required.

Taiwan "Ministry of economy" in 96 years of the Republic of China established LED lighting standards and quality research alliance, developed by LED LED lamps, T-Bar indoor lighting, and LED lamp three application potential of the product of technically challenging, market and related technology, to make Taiwan the first set from the LED component, grain the light source module, system and application of products a total of 17 complete LED standard, has formulated 9 important LED standards, and in July this year onwards through seminars and hearings on the way from views from all walks of life to adjust repair, and publish the first LED street lighting standard in December 4th this year.

The standard LED lighting technology demonstration case in collaboration with the Taipei municipal government, is the Taiwan area for the first time to plan reality verification standards, to enhance the capability of industrial technology, industry and semiconductor lighting industry to fill the broken chain, is expected to be of great help. Technology Department said that if the LED in creative thinking, close to the consumer demand, the application in various areas of import food, clothing, shelter, education, medical and health care, music, etc., intelligent life is a rainbow will soon appear.
