The number of LED street lamps installed has doubled

LED lighting took off this year, and one of the kinetic energy was the street lamp replacement. In terms of the 100 thousand lights in Taiwan last year, the revenue was 0. 8 billion yuan; It is estimated that the number of street lamp installations will increase fourfold in the next five years, including Europe, the United States and the middle school, however, the potential is still emerging markets such as Southeast Asia and West Asia. Ye Yufu, chairman of the LED packaging and lighting brand, said that the governments of various countries are aware of the energy-saving effect of LED street lamps. Take the United States as an example, through the Recovery and Investment Act (ARRA) Under the item, it not only subsidizes LED road lighting projects, but also encourages the use of locally manufactured products in the United States. According to LEDinside data, by the end of 2013, 600 cities in the United States had prepared or installed LED street lamps, of which New York City announced that 250 thousand LED street lamps would be replaced by 2017, it can save electricity and maintenance costs of 14 million US dollars per year, and it is expected to return to the cost in 6 years. Europe has a 20/20/20 carbon reduction and energy saving target, which is implemented by each country; For example, the London city government recently announced that it will replace 3. By 2016. With 50 thousand LED street lamps, the penetration rate will approach. As early as 2009, China put forward the plan of ten cities and ten thousand lamps, but due to the lack of national standards, the quality is mixed, street lamp failures are frequently transmitted, and the progress is behind Europe and the United States; At present, the installation progress in the rich city is relatively fast. For example, the six major cities in the Pearl River Delta of Guangdong province installed 300 thousand LED street lamps last year. The listed companies of Taiwan's LED street lamps include Yiguang and Delta, and there are professional manufacturers such as Hexi and Guanglin. Taiwan installed 250 thousand street lamps in 11 counties of 5 capitals last year, and then there are 800 thousand street lamps to be replaced. Based on the unit price of each 8000 yuan, the business opportunity is also NT $6. 4 billion. However, the big market is still in emerging regions such as Southeast Asia, the Middle East, South America and other places. At present, there is no national standard for LED street lamps in these countries. The Taiwan factory has the experience of bidding in Taiwan, can be exported to the local area. The LED industry said that although Taiwan's five street lights can be used to pay attention to revenue, the profit is not good, mainly used as a demonstration performance to open up foreign markets. Last year, it was originally agreed that the cost per lamp was NT $8000 plus NT $5000 for maintenance. Later, the county and city governments removed NT $5000 for maintenance. Recently, the future street lamp bidding case has been reported. Due to the lack of government finances, the manufacturers may first pay for the construction costs, and then pay the electricity bills saved year by year. Hu Yaozu, deputy director of the Institute of Green Energy of the Industrial Research Institute, pointed out that the new street lamp standard is still under discussion and has not yet been finalized. He said that Taiwan has a complete LED supply chain. In order to help manufacturers attack the market, ITRI proposed 1st LED street lamp standards in 2008 and promoted them to Poland, Thailand, Philippines and other countries, in 2012, the specifications of LED street lamp power supply were unified, giving Taiwan street lamps a standard heart, and manufacturers can reduce costs.
