Global Efficient Lighting Forum by UNEP and the Global Efficient Lighting Technology Center jointly organized, held yesterday in Beijing. United Nations Environment Programme by more than 150 countries around the world lighting market research indicates that the current electricity for lighting accounts for over 15% of global electricity consumption, emissions of carbon dioxide, accounting for 5% of the world; and to LED lighting technology as the representative of the advanced applications, You can reduce carbon dioxide emissions, more than half of the global lighting electricity generated, equivalent to emissions throughout Australia.
2011, China issued the “China to phase out incandescent roadmap”, and in October of this year by prohibiting the export and sale of more than 60W incandescent. Promotion of energy-efficient lighting products, is conducive to the sustainable use of energy and environmental protection, but also contribute to the formation of a new economic growth point. China as the world’s largest lighting production, consumption and export countries, rapid growth in the size of the domestic LED industry, in 2013 the market size of over 260 billion yuan.
China’s LED industry output rate of about 30% growth, mainly luminous efficiency of the device is close to the international mainstream level, basically complete industrial chain. But there are also some problems, in addition to the overall technological gap with the international advanced level, quality and safety performance lighting is a major problem. He believes that if further cooperation with international companies and research institutions to address the problem of good and bad quality in the next 3-5 years, LED lighting products market will fall within an acceptable range of Chinese people.
In addition, deputy director of the NDRC resource conservation and environmental protection department expects 2015 LED lighting market share of 20% of the target will be achieved ahead of schedule.
