In contrast, in the past 2012, multiple changes were taking place in China's LED industry. The industry shuffled and intensified, and most companies collapsed in overcapacity and disorderly competition. However, after the entire industry has experienced twists and turns, China's LED lighting market has shown a multipolar development. Government subsidies, rural markets, etc. have become a tranquilizer for the development of the LED industry in 2013.

[Electro-Mechanical News] The global LED lighting market was worth about 10.4 billion U.S. dollars in 2012

Core Tip: According to market adjustment agencies, the global LED lighting market in 2012 was estimated at 10.4 billion U.S. dollars, up 183% from 2011. Mainly due to the rapid decline in product prices (in 2012, the average unit price of LED bulbs fell by about 29% compared with 2011), driving demand growth, especially high compatibility, low prices, and LED lighting to replace the rapid development of light sources.

Xiao Bian commented: The key markets for the development of LED lighting in the future are still in mainland China, Europe, and the United States, but they must also pay attention to relevant standards, norms, energy efficiency requirements, local protectionism, and other non-tariff trade barriers. In 2013, the global LED lighting market will continue to grow at a 30% growth rate. In 2020, the global LED lighting output value will be US$65.8 billion.

[Market Analysis] Analysis of Status Quo of LED Lighting Industry in China

Core Tip: At present, the development of China's semiconductor lighting industry is good, the development of epitaxial chip companies is particularly rapid, the scale of packaging companies continues to maintain rapid growth, and lighting applications have made great progress. The concentrated display of LED lighting in the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games gave people a new understanding of LED, which strongly promoted the development of China's semiconductor lighting industry. Click here to read the details of the small editor Comments: China's semiconductor lighting industry is developing well, the development of epitaxial chip companies is particularly rapid, packaging companies continue to maintain rapid growth in scale, lighting applications have made great progress. At present, for domestic enterprises, strengthening large-scale, improving product quality and technology level is the top priority, increase the asking price ability for acquiring large plants in the future, or gradually break through core patents through R&D.

[Focus focus] LED lighting has great potential in agriculture

Core Tip: Light is one of the most important environmental factors for crop growth, and it regulates photosynthesis, growth and development, morphogenesis and material metabolism of plants. However, the sunlight in the natural world is not controlled by the weather, so artificial light sources have become an alternative. Compared with traditional electric light sources, LED has unparalleled advantages and applicability in modern agriculture. Click to read details

Xiao Bian assessment: It is understood that LED light source through the simulation of the light source spectrum required for plant growth, not only allows plants to grow at every moment, but also for a stable flowering period also has an effect. Due to technical obstacles, there are only a handful of companies globally trying to do this. Xiaobian believes that the development of the LED agricultural lighting industry not only requires the joint efforts of scientific research institutes and enterprises, but also needs the support of relevant state-friendly policies.

[hot spot] LED lighting products first selected energy-saving products purchase list

Core Tip: The Ministry of Finance publicized the list of government procurement of energy-saving products in early January. According to the relevant regulations of the country, the Ministry of Finance of the People's Republic of China and the National Development and Reform Commission adjusted the “energy saving list” and listed the LED lighting products for the first time on the procurement list.

Xiaobian review: Xiaobian learned that the listed LED lighting products in this energy-saving list include self-ballasted fluorescent lamps for general lighting, double-end fluorescent lamps for general lighting, and high-pressure sodium lamps, as well as LED road/tunnel lighting. Products, LED downlights and reflective self-ballasted LED lights, this is a great opportunity for LED companies to develop.

[Market News] Top Ten LED Lighting Lamps in China 2013

Core Tip: LED lighting fixtures are collectively referred to as LED fixtures. With the further development of LED technology, LED will achieve more and better development in the field of lighting design and development of the home. With the increasing emphasis on the promotion of LED lighting throughout the country, there will be more foreign LED giants entering the domestic market in 2013. Click to read the details Xiaobian analysis: The rapid development of China's LED market over the past 10 years, a group of typical enterprises have emerged. These enterprises have made outstanding contributions to China's LED industry and are also promoting the healthy and steady development of China's LED market during the process of continuous advancement. With the growing maturity of the enterprise, I believe that the development of the LED industry I have experienced in the future will achieve a new high.
