"Industrial is hot to burn and market is cold to tremble". This is the biggest embarrassed that domestic LED urban lighting industry faced with.
"Industrial is hot to burn and market is cold to tremble". This is the biggest embarrassed that domestic LED urban lighting industry faced with. Investigate its reason is not complex, two national "test" results made every city to be faced with a difficult choice: according to the government's encourage choice domestic brand, but the vast majority of Chinese LED lighting enterprise does not have to manufacture high quality LED lamp ability; Choose foreign brands can ensure the quality, but face higher cost burden.

"Foshan LED lighting industry realizes industrial output $20 million, with an average annual growth 35%, formed, including the equipment, materials, chip, sealing, lamps and lanterns and application promotion of relatively complete industrial chain." It is recently, Foshan city, Guangdong province, puts forward the 2012 LED industry development goals. This lets a person remember the 2009 May "ten cities million lamp" has just announced that when burst of exciting speculated that, when the related forecast data is: 2009 China need 1.4 million lamp, global need 2.4 million lamp, the future of large market potential is obvious. In the current excellent situation, China instigates at least 3,000 enterprise involvement LED industry. But in fact, 2009 "ten cities million lamp" 21 pilot city, has been installed LED lamp (including tunnel light) for only about 2.22bn million lamp. 2010 situation also not satisfied.

Like all Chinese major cities in the past two years experience as, Foshan also face a tough question: choose what brand of LED lights? According to the experience of the past, every city on-are as to choose which jurisdiction LED enterprises. However, the current domestic LED brand whether can undertake this task? "LED urban lighting why full of hot air, a main reason is LED lights the quality problem of the frequency die. In recently held the 2010 "LED and urban illume" BBS, SECCO sharp vice President Shi YuCan think.

Current domestic production LED lamp product quality, the good and bad are intermingled in photosynthetic efficiency, lighting evenness, color rendering, service life etc are unstable problem existing technology, especially the light failure too serious. In some cities, LED lamp installation for just two or three month’s time will not shine. "A LED energy-saving lamps can achieve 50% to 80% of energy-saving effect, 30 percent of them fall from the quality of the products." Shi YuCan tells a reporter, at present, the domestic LED lamp manufacturers’ good and evil people mixed up cause industry competition confusion.

An interesting phenomenon, in the world expo and the Asian games in 2010, the 2008 Olympic Games, almost are used in CREE, Philips and other foreign brands, but seldom see domestic LED brand. "Because in this international conference, quality than all important." This is the all people cried foul things.

After nearly two years national "test", place in each city is still the problem before choosing what LED branding. This is an unavoidable awkward: on the one hand, the government of LED lighting market encouraging policies constantly pyramid, on the other hand LED urban lighting market potential is tremendous, each city energetically cultivate the region LED enterprise, but industry development depends on the initial phase of the LED illumination, the vast majority of Chinese enterprise does not have to manufacture high quality LED lamp ability. What is to own enterprise or high quality?

Quality problem let many cities feel hesitate to mount LED projects or purchasing LED. In LED the market for budding or 15-litre designated, some cities in China would rather by joining 2006 launched the global City plan "and" LED the global experience obtained application LED (the plan has 24 cities join). Tianjin is a typical example, early Tianjin LED lighting activities make magnificent and victorious, Tianjin Harbin industrial university campus response of LEDCITY call, streetlights Cree project into temporary, but compared present national plan, Tianjin instead slightly low-key.

Some key city position has happened a subtle change, start tend to choose quality. But high quality means that the high cost. "Shanghai wants promoting LED, but at an exorbitant price is still the biggest obstacle. But if selected high quality LED lamp, these cities and faces huge cost pressure." Shanghai economy and informationization, deputy director of the commission ShaoZhi Qing points out LED urban lighting is the most difficult point(LED lamps lighting). An industry within universally accepted fact: even engaged in chip making, domestic has considerable size of enterprise; its product price is less than half the price of product Cree Company, more than Japan, the company product price 1/4. This is of high quality cost. Kunming recently calculate a bill to Kunming, for example, according to 0.483 Yuan/degrees to calculate, 1.6 million lamp that LED lamp can save the electricity, but about 8,000 Yuan LED lamp is installed on the cable, workers installation cost, and lamps cost, need to spend $4.8 billion.

"No government subsidies, estimates that most people don't use LED lamp." This is another industry consensus. But what makes LED enterprise awkward is, when the other kind energy-saving products enjoying national government when (such as direct subsidies air conditioner, automobile, etc.), LED industry but because no issued industry national standards(industrial LED lighting), even if the government subsidies to send, there is no standard can depend on. At present, the LED illumination energy conservation subsidies are made by each city oneself stumping up, so are generally within their own area of subsidies to LED enterprises. This is also determines the cities position bias native brand's sake.

How should we operate LED urban lighting? Every city is still confused. The government needs to do overall arrangement, but it is only just beginning.From: wholesale LED lights
