As LED lighting industry is of huge potential economy and social benefits of LED lighting industry, all the countries around the world attach great importance to the R & D and production of LED. Advanced countries promote the rapid development of the semiconductor lighting industry from the technology, industrial policy, industry standardization promotion, and the cultivation of “four in one” consumer environmental philosophy. This has a certain reference for the development of LED industry in China.
Ensure the technology first.
LED lighting industry as an emerging industry has many major technology research. However, technology research with vast investment, long cycle, huge risk can not just let companies invest alone, the government participation is also very important. Only this way can promote the technology development.
In June, 2006, U.S. Department of Energy’s decide to support the five major LED lighting project : Listed as below: general lighting with integrated LED floodlights, solid-state lighting products, higher light rate of phosphor-based white LED phosphor systems, organic semiconductor lighting device structure, the durable and efficient the hole emitting diode. The total investment of the five projects is of $ 11 million. The main source of funding is main to government investment, accounting for 70%, the other 30% of the funds is invested by the enterprises which is responsible for developing the project.
When the LED lighting industry is rising, Chinese companies missed an opportunity to overcome the major technical problems. Many of the core technologies are occupied by foreign enterprises and some related enterprises in China seem somewhat passive. China’s LED industry how to break through the technical weakness needs the efforts and explore of the parties.
The LED industry has a huge economic and social benefits, many countries have introduced a related industry support policies, including special fiscal spending, tax incentives to encourage R & D and investment in the LED industry, and the establishment of a sound system of LED lights industry.
In recent years, China has also introduced a lot of industry support policy. Insiders pointed out that the Government should give more consideration on how to make the utility maximization policy support, and to avoid wasting resources.
