Household LED lighting more affordable

LED lights quickly replace the traditional light incandescent, energy-saving lamps. Its energy saving and environmental protection is the megatrell and a strong impetus to technological innovation.

Household LED lighting more affordable

“Now households renovate new homes, incandescent lamps have not been considered, mainly with LED lights and energy-saving lamps. LED lamp prices with energy-saving lamps, compared to more energy-efficient, more grade, generally we recommend customers to buy LED lights. District Wuzhou Street Dragon Lighting market operators Liu Jun said.

We found that the LED lights on the market not only price-friendly, but also more and more varieties. Time back to two or three years ago, when the 5-watt LED lights, the price is 3 to 4 times the same brightness of energy-saving lamps. In recent years, the upstream chip prices fell at about 30% a year, the cost of LED lights generally declined. The current price of LED lights have basically flat with energy-saving lamps, LED lights thus entering the stage of a comprehensive alternative to traditional lighting products. We see on Taobao Web, the larger sales of light bulbs are mainly LED lights, including a 3 installed Opal lighting price of 17.9 RMB for 3 watt LED bulbs, the recent monthly sales of nearly 30,000.

“LED lights are similar in price to energy-saving lamps, and customers naturally prefer LED lights.” According to market sources, as the production technology of LED products continues to mature, prices will fall further and market competitiveness will also become stronger and stronger. We have noticed that nowadays, interior decoration light source used by interior decoration households has become the mainstream. A few years ago called “high-end electronic equipment LED Light” has entered the homes of ordinary people.

It is estimated that the life of LED lights is about 3 times than the energy-saving lamps, the same brightness of LED lights, power consumption is only about 60% of energy-saving lamps. In accordance with the program of price ladder, the annual electricity consumption of residents is divided into three steps of ladder-type, progressively increases, multi-electricity will be charged at a higher unit price, which will inevitably promote the residents to use more energy-efficient LED lights.

What are the advantages of winter LED lights?

In winter, cold temperatures, gusts and snow showers swept many parts of the country. Under the snowy conditions, handling the road problems is not easy, and the security issue is real.

What are the advantages of winter LED lights?

Improve driver and pedestrian safety

Modern lighting technologies are improving the safety of pilots and pedestrians on winter roads.

Traditional high-pressure sodium lamp illumination produces a lower color rendering index (CRI <25) and distorts the driving environment, while solid-state wide-spectrum illumination provides a higher CRI (CRI> 70) and better field of view.

Solid state broad spectrum lighting uses products with higher color temperatures (CCT typically 3,000K to 6,000K) and color rendering index (CRI> 70); solid state wide spectrum illumination improves road visibility and object detection. Light with a low color rendering index may “distort” the environment.

Compared with the traditional HID lamp technology, such as the 2000K CCT high-pressure sodium lamp, vehicle and pedestrian detection can be improved with broad-spectrum illumination of 4,000K color temperature.

LED and colder climate

In the often snowing area, LED is the ideal choice for road lighting.

The LED system is designed to provide the driver with excellent object detection and contrast in snow conditions, with appropriate levels and light curtain brightness, and the reflective properties of light scattered on the snow-covered pavement increase the ambient brightness and illuminate the pavement.

A common question is that Whether LED is ideal for traffic and street lighting because it does not melt snow?

Road lighting is usually horizontal-oriented optical system, anti-snow, if the lighting design is reasonable, interference is almost no problem.

There is a similar problem with lighting in parking lots and other outdoor spaces. Parking lots and roads usually clear snow, but ambient light levels increase due to the reflective nature of white surfaces. The LEDs can be adjusted to these luminance to provide a safer environment for pedestrians and pilots.

In the weakest months of the year, LEDs are a great way to increase visibility and maintain road safety. When bad winter weather comes, strong lighting design and appropriate color temperature create the best conditions for the pavement.

US Department of Energy released the latest US lighting market characteristics

Department of Energy, DOE recently released a new LMC (Lighting Market Characterization, LMC, which includes lighting installation, total electricity usage and lumens, with data covering the pre-2015 figures.

US Department of Energy released the latest US lighting market characteristics

The last LMC was released in the United States in 2012, which shows the data before 2010. However, at that time Solid-state lighting, SSL just started, so the report mainly for the use of fluorescent lamps instead of incandescent.

The latest report shows the LED influence on the general lighting market, as of 2015 LED installation volume of 8%. Information from 2015 shows that the lighting electricity consumption is 64.1 billion kilowatt hours, accounting for 17% of the total electricity consumption; a decrease of 5.9 billion kilowatt hours of lighting electricity compared with the data in 2012.

The new report also provides in-depth analysis of the use of different lighting markets, including outdoor lighting, residential lighting, commercial lighting and industrial lighting, of which the highest proportion of outdoor lighting LED application accounted for 23%, up 15% over 2010, followed by commercial lighting accounted 10%, an increase of 8% over 2010.

Jim Brodrick, director of the DOE SSL program, said that many would expect the installation of more lighting throughout the country with the introduction of CFLs, which is also known as the lighting paradox. However, Brodrick pointed out that the number of luminaires in the United States increased by 500 million from 2010 to 2015, but the reason for this increase is mainly attributed to “new home users” rather than the original home users.

Overall, LED lighting has made great strides since 2010, reaching 8% by 2015 and 7% more than in 2010.

2018 China’s automotive LED lighting market will explode

As consumers pay more attention to driving safety and the impact of better road lighting demand growth and other factors, and further promote the growth of the automotive lighting market. State-of-the-art automotive lighting systems are glare-proof, use infrared and ultraviolet light to identify obstacles, and market suppliers continue to introduce signals that adapt to changing environmental conditions and respond to emergency braking signals.

2018 China's automotive LED lighting market will explode

New trends in the automotive lighting market have opened up new opportunities for businesses, especially in the lighting segment. Environmental lighting is one of them, can be installed on the vehicle to create a different experience, which make users physically and mentally pleased.

The global automotive lighting market can be technically divided into halogen lamps, LED lamps, and xenon lamps.

According to OFweek Industry Research Center’s “2017 LED Automotive Lighting Market Research Report” (hereinafter referred to as the report), the penetration rate of domestic LED lamps and lanterns is about 10% -15% in 2016. The overall market size of LED lamps and lanterns is more than 5 billion RMB, According to the 20% penetration rate of LED lamp 60%, the domestic auto market in the next few years’ sales growth rate of 5% compound estimated that by 2022, the domestic LED lamp market is expected to reach 76.6 billion RMB.

LED car lighting market growth rate has been rising year by year, but the automotive supply chain industry ecological are conservative, product certification need a long time. Most of the current supply of automotive components are monopoly by a small number of international companies. Though Taiwan factory deliberately breaking barriers, the proportion of supply is still limited, and the rear access to the maintenance market is relatively low barriers to entry, more conducive to new entrants into the supply chain. The recent Mainland LED industry stars such as China, Hongli has been actively snatched into the strategic alliance with the mainland lamp factory, and Taiwan-based LED plant, such as Everlight, Ronda, Edison, United Carnival, etc. also continued layout, will have the opportunity to grab business opportunities.

Although the mainland car repair market will show a multiple growth, all the businesses have to get into, will lead to the initial product into fear of mixed good and bad, and price competition will lead to less profits than expected, challenging the thinking of car LED orders with higher gross profit fans. It is expected that will enter a new round of industrial knock-out, testing the cost control of various businesses and technical capabilities.

Horticultural lighting industry will be a new LED lighting industry opportunities

The competition in the global lighting market is becoming fiercer and fiercer. The horticultural lighting industry may be a new opportunity for the LED lighting industry. Using LED technology to develop high value-added products will gain more profit. Of course, veteran LED makers still face competition from new entrants, mostly start-ups and small and medium-sized businesses, who are struggling to snatch their market share in this market of growth opportunities.

Horticultural lighting industry will be a new LED lighting industry opportunities

Until the fourth quarter of 2017, the market for the LED horticultural lighting industry is still small, with fewer than 50 vendors offering LED lighting specifically for the market.

Focusing on the future, the development of horticultural lighting industry is closely linked with the market dynamics. In fact, the marketing and communication of major industry players mainly focus on two main applications:

1, the cultivation of medical crops, is currently the main market drivers;

2, vegetable cultivation, growing “low-end / volume of large-scale products.”

Some established mature lighting system manufacturers may not be involved in the first application (at least not involved in the public) to protect the brand image. This opens up new opportunities for many new entrants to quickly reap revenue and enhance their expertise and experience in the horticultural lighting market.

At the device level, most LED manufacturers tend to adopt “technology-driven strategies” to quickly provide horticultural lighting solutions and related marketing tools using their traditional LED product lines, such as UV, visible and near infrared (LEDs) Such as a dedicated data table, etc.). In the future, with the in-depth study of the impact of LED lighting on crop growth, these vendors will begin to provide solutions specifically for horticultural lighting (eg, carefully modulated wavelengths, multiple wavelength combinations, etc.).

At present, the missing part of the industrial chain is mainly in the module level. There is no real module-level supplier in the horticultural LED lighting industry in 2017, so the market is still an emerging market with a young industry and a lack of relevant Standards and regulations. In this context, lighting system manufacturers are designing their own LED lighting modules with specific wavelength combinations / solutions.

Some vendors are positioning themselves as solution providers, offering not only lighting systems but also global solutions with integrated sensors (humidity, oxygen content, etc.) as well as data management software. The goal of these smart lighting systems is to further increase the production of greenhouses and urban farms.
