LED lighting is the trend of the next generation of lighting products. On the one hand, long-life, high luminous efficiency, low energy consumption characteristics, so that LED lighting has a traditional lighting incomparable advantages; on the other hand, LED industry and advocated by the current national energy saving, to create a "green carbon" consistent policy of life. As an emerging industry, LED has formed a complete industrial chain of global distribution.

1 global energy issues of concern, LED lighting market continues to grow

The past two years, energy issues was continued to get more attention, LED lighting market is rising rapidly. By the policy of promoting the world's major countries, significantly improve the LED luminous efficiency, overall lighting design to mature, and LED lighting price forecast will affect 20% to 30% decline in the space of a year and other factors, LED lighting penetration rate is expected to continue to improve. From source to replace the low-power LED lights for residential use, and to the full range of high-power LED lighting equipment for commercial and industrial use, various LED lighting applications demand is soaring. Expects 2015 global LED lighting market will reach $ 21.7 billion, and is expected to drive the power supply to 40 million units sold in 2016 scale, output value reached $ 10 billion.

2 Asian LED industry ranks first in the world, Japan, Korea, market development can be expected

In 2010, Asia has become a major production base of LED, Japan, South Korea and China's overall market share of 81.3%. Asian countries, South Korea's fastest growing, investment in the development of LED industry in 2002, in 2009 to create the LED backlight LCD TV market, in order to ensure grain source, positive expansion to 2010 market share approaching 10%. Japan with strong quality and technical development capabilities, ranking leadership position in the global LED industry, from 2000 to 2005 reached more than 50% market share in 2006 to 2010 in Taiwan affected economies of scale and low-cost strategy, coupled with the ROK actively leading seize the market, its global market share fell to 41.5 percent. For China, the Taiwan market share between 2003 and 2006 were maintained at about 20%, after growing year by year, until 2010 reached 25.3%; in China continued to grow slightly in 2010, the market share of only 5 %. Expected in South Korea and mainland China's continued growth in the context of the global LED industry in Asia will continue to lead. It is estimated that in 2012 global high-brightness LED market value growth rate will be 13.4%, the scale of $ 10.1 billion, Japan, Korea, China Taiwan high-brightness LED market will reach 61.3% share of the total. Only by grasping the overall development of the LED industry in Asia, in order to better grasp the global LED industry development context.

3, the high price of European culture with a special light, power LED lighting industry to take off

Europe overall lighting market is relatively mature, but its high price and special light culture, making commercial lighting and outdoor architectural lighting applications situational demand for LED continued unabated. In 2012, the European LED lighting market has exceeded $ 3 billion. Meanwhile, a comprehensive ban incandescent light bulbs by the EU policies, the market growth is expected to rise significantly, in 2015 the European LED lighting industry will reach $ 10 billion, the annual compound growth rate between 2011 and 2015 is expected to reach 49 percent, will become Japan after the next fast-growing LED lighting market maturity.

European high-price policy and special light culture is an important factor to promote its rapid development of LED industry. High price for LED lighting is a universal good, to be able to replace a traditional 40-watt incandescent bulb 7 watt LED bulb, for example, if the point of 8 hours per day, and EU-27 price, the monthly one LED bulb will save $ 2 than traditional incandescent, higher consumption of commercial outdoor lighting or lighting will be able to save more money. Europe's focus on creating a culture of light light environment, rather than simply to emphasize the kind of lamps or brightness level. In Lyon, France, for example, the government has come up with an annual budget of some light into the building, and organized Festival of Lights, the establishment of an international urban lighting joint households (LUCI), the lighting and urban culture together, both tourism and economic benefits.

4, China's LED industry boom unabated growth in the low-profit record

Although the development model of severe crush China OEM LED corporate profit margins, but the domestic business confidence in the future of the industry has not diminished. 1 to July 2012, China's LED industry still plans to add a total investment amounted to 125.6 billion yuan, of which more than 40% of the funds are invested in a number of industrial sectors, and even the whole industry chain investment. It is noteworthy that non-LED business investment into the LED industry has become the LED industry conducted to obtain an important part of the investment, these projects accounted for more than the 45% of all investment projects, worth more than 65% of the total investment amount.

China LED industry boom is closely related to government support. March 2012, China's National Development and Reform Commission clearly will spend 40 billion yuan for the purchase of LED lights, and provide 30% of the users of financial subsidies LED lights. Local governments also will respond, Guangdong Province said that since March 1 this year, the province's lighting all financial investment in the construction and development of new regional planning in all areas of public lighting using LED. In addition, the degree of capital market favor of the LED market is not reduced, as one of venture capital and private equity industry's most favored investment. In 2011 the country has seven LED industry in the A-share companies to achieve IPO, total financing amounted to 3.625 billion yuan. February 2012 the Commission published the list of enterprises IPO application in the trial, at least nine are LED industry related companies.

China LED companies win in a low profit growth. Data show that during the "Eleventh Five-Year", double the size of the integrated circuit industry, production and sales, respectively, from 2005's 26.58 billion and 70.2 billion yuan, increased to 65.25 billion in 2010 and 144 billion yuan, accounting for global IC market share increased from 4.5% in 2005 to 8.6% in 2010. Domestic market scale of 380 billion yuan from 2005 to 2010, 735 billion yuan, accounting for 43.8% of the global IC market share. In 2011, under the European economic downturn, China's LED and other energy-saving products exports are still adverse economic growth 25%, LED indoor lighting products production increased 75 percent, prices fell 22%, the output value of 18.6 billion yuan, an increase of 38 %. According to the agency predicted, thanks to government support and lower prices this year, China LED interior lighting output will reach 30.6 billion yuan, an increase of 64%; in 2015 will reach 99.3 billion yuan in the next four years of indoor lighting production value CAGR reach 52%.
