U.S. market research firm Freedonia (Freedonia) research report predicted that by 2016 the U.S. lighting market will reach $ 25 billion. It is expected that U.S. demand for lighting will increase by 7.4% annually to reach $ 25.1 billion by 2016.
U.S. LED lighting TBT notification Convocation mainly against the United States recently released LED lamp test procedures TBT (Technical Barriers to Trade Agreement) Bulletin (G/TBT/N/USA/698 number) commenced deliberations, the test procedure provides for measuring lumen LED lights output, input power and relative spectral distribution approach. In addition, the measure also provides LED light lumen maintenance methods to predict LED lamp rated life.
These provisions are closely related with LED lighting products, while the U.S. is one of the main export markets for China’s LED lighting. In 2011 China’s exports to the U.S. amounted to hundreds of billions of LED lamps. The United States formally notified the regulations once implemented, it will make great impact for China’s energy efficient lamps.
The Commercialization of LED lighting also have a significant impact on the industry, the longer life of LED, the more energy efficient it will be, but there is only a small share of demand. Is expected to close in 2016, LED-based lighting needs will be particularly strong growth, rapid pace of technological progress. LED light source also make them more energy efficient, brighter and more affordable. In addition, lighting manufacturers are also developing a device designed for LED to optimize its performance, and to be the first-class works of art in lighting products.
Energy efficient lamps include portable and non-portable devices, as well as the separately sold parts and accessories such as aftermarket lamp ballasts, fittings, switches, etc., the demand for lighting is dominated by non-portable devices, which is accounting for nearly two third of lighting. Non-portable lighting lamps are mainly from a full range of widely used in lighting applications in buildings and vehicles. It is expected to 2016, benefiting from the rise in construction activity and put the whole vehicle demand increases, the demand for non-portable device is also expected to be increased in the after.
It expected between 2013 and 2016 the demand for non-portable lamps nearly doubled, we look at the major market segments, reducing energy consumption lighting brand will get the best growth prospects. This can be largely attributed to the 2007’s Energy Independence and Security Act of demand for energy-efficient lighting products: Limit the sale of incandescent light requirements. These regulations will strive to promote fluorescent lamps, halogen lamps, high intensity discharge lighting and energy efficient lamps needs.
