China's LED industry is rapidly growing cake

LED industry is rapidly becoming one of the most popular industry. Ten years later will be the world of LED. As a kind of power can be converted into light energy semiconductor light-emitting devices, LED (light-emitting diode) power consumption is only 1/10 of incandescent lamp, energy-saving fluorescent lamp 1/3, and life is 100 times the incandescent lamp. Compared with the traditional light source, LED does not use mercury, lead and other pollution elements, but also can be recycled, is a green light source.

China's 2009 LED industry sales value reached 60 billion yuan, an increase of more than 30% against the trend, so that China has become one of the fastest growing areas of the global LED industry. China's LED market, is currently in the billions of dollars from the magnitude of the magnitude of a major leap in the process. In the creation of energy saving and environmental protection of low-carbon economy, China's LED industry is rapidly growing cake.

Analysis of relevant institutions, in 2010, China's LED lighting industry output value will be more than 150 billion yuan, more than doubled in 2008. Is expected to be the fastest in 2015, LED lighting market share in China will reach 20%, driven by industrial scale of up to $500 billion, China will enter the world's top three LED lighting market.

In October 2009, the national development and Reform Commission, Ministry of science and other six ministries jointly issued the "semiconductor lighting industry development opinions" put forward a clear goal: by 2015, the output value of the semiconductor lighting industry with an average annual growth rate of around 30% to around 20%: functional lighting: innovation capacity significantly enhanced, the upstream chip scale production enterprises: 3-5 industry concentration significantly increased. With its own brand, the backbone of the backbone of the market impact of more than 10 companies: to achieve annual saving of 40 billion kwh, equivalent to an annual reduction of carbon dioxide emissions of 40 million tons.

The world formed in Asia, North America, Europe's three largest regional center for the LED industry in Japan, TOYOTA, Nichia American Cree, Lumileds synthesis, Osram and the European patent for core technology competition. U.S. and Japanese companies in the epitaxial chip, chip technology, equipment has a monopoly advantage, European companies in the field of application of technology advantages.

From 1999 to 2009, in the United States to apply for 3312 patents related to LED, Japan ranked first, accounting for about 50%, the United States accounted for second, accounting for 30%, China Taiwan, third, 11%.
