Semiconductor lighting inspection standards lag affects industrial development (Figure)

Recently, Wang Jinwei, chairman of the China Lighting Association, said at the press conference of the 2011 China (Beijing) International Lighting Exhibition that in recent years, in line with the development policy of national energy conservation and emission reduction, the lighting industry has moved towards a new era of energy conservation and environmental protection. Semiconductor lighting has many advantages such as rich color, long life, easy control, power saving, no secondary pollution, and has broad development prospects. However, the current industry standards and testing systems for semiconductor lighting are not perfect, which has become an obstacle to the development of the semiconductor lighting industry.

With the rapid development of the economy, the proportion of lighting electricity to the total energy consumption of the society is increasing. Increasing lighting efficiency and saving energy have become an important means of alleviating the tension of electricity consumption. Semiconductor lighting products do not contain mercury, lead and other substances harmful to the environment and the human body. Under the same brightness, the power consumption is only 1/10 of that of ordinary incandescent lamps, and the life can be extended by 50 times. It is precisely because of this that the country has vigorously promoted semiconductor lighting products since the new century. In 2003, China launched the “National Semiconductor Lighting Project”. In 2009, it launched the “Ten Cities and Ten Thousand Cities” program to promote the application of LEDs. Some experts predict that by 2015, the promotion of semiconductor lighting products can achieve annual energy saving of 40 billion kWh, equivalent to 40 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions per year.

Wang Jintao told the author that the standards and patents related to semiconductor lighting products are becoming the focus of competition among the world's major producers. The establishment and improvement of relevant testing and testing systems is also crucial for China. He also revealed that through the "863 Program", the Ministry of Science and Technology is actively establishing a semiconductor lighting product testing platform.

At present, China's semiconductor lighting industry chain has been gradually improved, the industry has begun to take shape, and the localization rate of chips has been continuously improved. However, Wang Jinyu reminded domestic enterprises that the international lighting giant not only focused on upstream manufacturing, but also exerted great efforts in downstream product applications, and began to acquire application manufacturing companies including chips, Philips, Osram, GE and other companies. This is the case.
