The curtain of the domestic LED market opened
As the overseas market is sluggish, the industry has set its sights on the domestic market, hoping to launch the domestic market as soon as possible. The promulgation of Guangdong supporting policies will greatly stimulate the LED market demand and promote the transformation of Guangdong into a strong LED province. "Green LED lighting is the general trend!" said Pan Wenbo, founder of Guangzhou International Lighting Fair and president of Guangya Lighting Research Institute. "If China's LED lighting industry misses development opportunities due to the absence of policies, it will be in the future international competition. Will be beaten passively."
In order to promote the development of the LED industry, a series of supporting policies have been introduced in the recent past, making the LED industry see the light. On May 28th, Guangdong Province held a working conference on the promotion and application of LED lighting products, and the "Implementation Plan for the Promotion and Use of LED Lighting Products in Guangdong Province" was officially released. Li Xinghua, director of the Guangdong Provincial Department of Science and Technology, said that Guangdong Province regards the establishment of LED application demonstration projects as a breakthrough to stimulate the development of the LED industry. Strive to popularize LED public lighting in three years, drive the popularization of LED lighting in the whole society, and stimulate the province's LED industry to achieve an annual output value of more than 500 billion by the end of the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period. According to the requirements of the "implementation plan", from the date of implementation of the plan, the province's roads, public places, government agencies, state-owned enterprises and institutions and other lighting projects and newly planned new districts will all use LED lighting products. The original project using non-LED lighting products will be completed in phases and batches within 3 years, that is, before the end of 2014, and the Pearl River Delta region should strive to complete it before the end of 2013.
Industry insiders have said, "The supporting policies introduced at this conference are of milestone significance for the LED industry in Guangdong Province, and will promote the rapid development of local and even domestic LED companies in Guangdong."
Attractive prospects for the LED civilian market
The phasing out of incandescent lamps will have long-term benefits for the LED lighting industry, and the market size will reach hundreds of billions of yuan. As Director Li Xinghua said, the application demonstration project is just a breakthrough to stimulate the development of the LED industry, and the market really needs to start up for the civilian market.
It is reported that the current domestic civil lighting field is mainly the incandescent lamp and energy-saving lamp market. Due to the high price of LED lighting, it is still difficult to be accepted by consumers. Data show that the current stock of incandescent lamps in the country is as high as 15 billion, and the annual output and sales are 3.85 billion and 1.07 billion respectively.
"The phasing out of incandescent lamps will have long-term benefits for the LED lighting industry and energy-saving lamp industry. The market scale formed by only replacing the existing incandescent lamps will reach hundreds of billions." Pan Wenbo told reporters. Pan Wenbo pointed out that although the country has issued the "Roadmap to Eliminate Incandescent Lamps in China", there is still not much policy implementation on how to subsidize LED lighting. The "Implementation Plan for the Promotion of the Use of LED Lighting Products in Guangdong Province" just released, the object of support is public lighting, and does not involve civil lighting. "Compared to public projects, the civil lighting market has greater potential. Once the civil lighting market really starts, the LED industry in Guangdong Province will surely lead to a'U'-shaped reversal."
The industry's vision of the LED industry's prospects is not without a target. According to the "National "Twelfth Five-Year" Science and Technology Development Plan", in 2015, LED lighting will occupy more than 30% of the domestic general lighting market, and the output value is expected to reach 500 billion yuan. If my country's LED civil lighting penetration rate reaches 80%, it will be a trillion-level market.
It is not only local companies that are optimistic about the domestic civil lighting market, but international giants including Philips, Samsung, and Sharp are also eyeing the Chinese civil LED lighting market. The reporter learned from the organizing committee of the upcoming 17th "Guangzhou International Lighting Exhibition" (June 9-12) in 2012 that many Fortune 500 companies, including Philips Lighting, value this At this exhibition, we hope to win over customers and distributors through this platform, and prepare for further competition in the Chinese civil LED lighting market.
