13 billion LED sales caused Shenzhen investment boom

LED

LED is short for LightEmitterDiode, namely a light-emitting diode, it is a component made of semiconductor materials, which can convert electrical energy into light energy, not only has the advantages of small size, and has long service life, low driving voltage, fast reaction rate, good shock resistance, low power consumption, low heat, color purity higher, at LED mainly used for general lighting, semiconductor light display, landscape lighting, traffic signs, automotive lighting and other fields, known as the mainstream of the next generation of lighting industry.

The year 2005, China's LED (light emitting diode) industry is expected to total market demand will reach about 13000000000 yuan, the application market will be more than 25 billion yuan. Reporters recently learned that the interview, the huge business opportunities and huge market prospects, is stirring up a wave of investment in the LED industry in Shenzhen.

70% national LED enterprises in Shenzhen get together

"According to a survey, more than and 500 LED enterprises in our country, there are nearly 300 countries gathered in Shenzhen, accounting for about 70% of the total number of enterprises; Shenzhen City Lighting Association member units, and nearly 1/3 in the LED project or product development. Shenzhen LED lighting industry is indeed very rapid development momentum." In the recently held "the fourth China (Shenzhen) lighting electrical exposition", with more than 40 years of experience in the industry of Shenzhen, vice president and Secretary General of the lighting Pang Yunfan introduction.

Reporter was informed that in 2003, Shenzhen LED enterprises is only twenty or thirty. But in the past two years, with the LED market is optimistic, technology matures, LED companies in the deep get together and explosive growth, has achieved significant economic benefits. Last year, Shenzhen city's semiconductor lighting industry output value reached 8 billion yuan, LED industry chain from the GaN based LED epitaxial wafer and chip, phosphor to the lighting engineering application of product development are involved, has formed a large industrial scale, products are exported to all over the world.

Shenzhen City Blue radium company just developed the country's first "lighting engine" integrated application system, to come to discuss cooperation, investment investors in a continuous line. Xu, general manager of the company admitted to reporters, said: the current LED investment hot, on the case of Shenzhen, there are new manufacturers to join, and a lot of orders, the momentum is very promising."

According to the Bureau of trade and Industry Secretary Wang revealed, Shenzhen city in March 2005 had to support the introduction of semiconductor lighting industry "6 new" measures, including the establishment of the Shenzhen semiconductor lighting project coordination leading group and the group of experts, to promote the rapid development of LED industry in Shenzhen.

In order to cope with fierce competition, to seek the bigger Shenzhen LED industry, Shenzhen is planning LED industry development program. It is reported that the Shenzhen municipal government has decided to set up a 3.3 square kilometers of Baoan semiconductor lighting industry park, the core park has a total area of about 1 square kilometers.
