Since 2010, the global LED general lighting has developed rapidly, and several countries have introduced relevant policies to promote its application. our country has introduced a series of LED lighting application promotion measures, such as 'ten cities and ten thousand lamps', the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, the Ministry of Transport jointly carried out semiconductor lighting product application demonstration project bidding, etc., the industry's most concerned LED lighting lamp price subsidy policy is also about to come out, LED lighting lamps have gradually entered the large-scale application stage.
One. our country's lighting market is huge, and the products are mainly traditional light source lamps such as incandescent lamps and fluorescent lamps. According to the sales volume of lamps, the share of LED lighting fixtures in the general lighting market is less than 1%, and it is far from becoming a mainstream lighting product. In addition to the application of street lamps and tunnel lights, our country's LED lighting applications are more widely used, and on the whole, the application lags behind the main lighting markets such as Europe, America, and Japan, and the application market still needs to be supported and promoted. In addition, the specific implementation of standards and specifications is still insufficient compared to market demand, which has created obstacles to the promotion of LED lighting applications.
Two. The lighting industry foundation is very strong, and our country is the world's largest producer of lighting sources and lamps. According to the statistics of China Lighting and Electrical Appliances Association, in 2010, the output of incandescent lamps in China was 3.8 billion, and the output of fluorescent lamps was 6.69 billion, including 1.83 billion straight fluorescent lamps, 1.8 billion ring fluorescent lamps, and 4.43 billion CFLs. In 2010, 174 million HID lamps were produced in China, including 56 million high-pressure mercury lamps, 54 million high-pressure sodium lamps, and 63 million metal halide lamps. At the same time, the consumption of lighting fixtures in our country is mainly provided by domestic manufacturers, with imported products accounting for less than 5% of the domestic share and nearly 70% of domestic production for export. A good lighting industry foundation not only provides reliable product supply for the domestic LED lighting market application, but also provides very good support for the domestic LED lighting industry to improve the cost performance of LED lighting fixtures through scale effects.
