LED prospects are questioned again: the overall production of LED lights has the purpose of energy saving?

Recently, the development prospects of LED light sources have been questioned again, "energy saving does not save money", "no energy saving and no money", "carnival sequela highlights", "repeated the photovoltaic industry, "full application of public lighting is dangerous", etc. Frequently speaking, the LED light source is in a stalemate in the future, and it is urgent for the professionals in the industry to answer questions.

LED light source is stuck in the future
Recently, Taiwan’s Taichung City Council decided to delete the central government’s subsidy of 79 million LED funds after reviewing the budget. It is understood that the city councilor Li Zhong said that the LED street lamp illumination is insufficient, and the failure rate is very high. It is necessary to prepare maintenance fees in the future, and it has not really achieved the purpose of saving money.

Coincidentally, Guangdong's efforts to promote public lighting in the past three years have been strongly questioned. The industry believes that the regional mandatory replacement technology is not mature, and the LED lighting products with low technology content cannot be ignored. More critically, the product needs to consume a large amount of non-ferrous metal resources, which is not in line with the national environmental protection concept of energy saving and low carbon. Therefore, the application of LED to public lighting has certain risks.

In addition, after the media re-explosion, the aftermath of the LED industry, the LED industry's sequelae continue to emerge, the LED industry's reshuffle period may continue until the middle of 2014, if LED companies do not see the market environment in time, it is even possible to repeat The photovoltaic industry is overshadowed.

For a time, the LED light source that has been optimistic about the government and the industry has been caught in a deadlock. At the same time, from another perspective, after the chaos, the industry began to calmly think about the future direction of LED light source.

The government is wary of "good deeds"

A few days ago, the reporter went to Shanghai to investigate the development of the LED light source market. According to people familiar with the matter, LED lighting was once the “sweet spot” in the eyes of the government in Shanghai, and it gave huge subsidies to LED upstream chip companies. However, this year, subsidized companies have not achieved any results, and the source said that Shanghai began to curb the development of LED lighting. In 2009, the Yangzhou Municipal Government of Jiangsu Province introduced the MOCVD subsidy policy, which enabled other local governments in China to follow suit. However, as early as last year, Yangzhou stopped the MOCVD subsidy policy, and the MOCVD subsidies were gradually stopped. Obviously, if the person disclosed by the insider reveals that Shanghai will begin to curb the development of LED light sources, then this is likely to be a microcosm of the development of LED light sources in the country. The development plans of LED light sources by various governments have gradually returned to rationality.

Since the development of LED, the policy subsidies have been introduced one after another, from upstream equipment to downstream application procurement. However, how many enterprises are really rushing for research and development, for expanding production, and contributing to the development of the industry, rather than treating themselves as “pocket money”? If subsidies are in place, enterprise development is not effective, what should the government take? Means to save? Does it need to go through legal procedures? Or does it mean that the people’s hard-earned money can be lost without paying attention? In addition, what kind of situation will the subsidized enterprises face when the huge financial subsidy policy is terminated? What is the impact?

From a glimpse to the current "bamboo baskets to fight water," government subsidies are understandable, but the path of choice should obviously be rethought, and vigilance evolved into "good deeds."

The overall production of LED lights has the purpose of energy saving?

As we all know, LED lights only need a small amount of energy to produce the same amount of light as incandescent bulbs, but this is only a small part of what most people know. In March last year, Carnegie Mellon University's research report pointed out that LED lights can save energy, but the researchers also pointed out that this does not take into account all aspects of the production process, the overall production process of LED lights It may be quite energy intensive, not far from the energy efficiency of a typical energy-saving light bulb. According to foreign media reports, LED lamps, which have always been known for their energy-saving, consume more energy than the general light bulbs in the process of production and recycling. Obviously, the function of “energy saving” cannot be achieved.


During the past two years, the reporter heard that many people in the industry said that the higher the demand for chips, the higher the waste caused in the production process, and the energy consumption is quite terrible. Then assume that the energy consumption of the entire LED production process is much greater than the overall energy consumption of incandescent lamps or compact fluorescent lamps, so how to achieve the energy-saving effect of LEDs?

In addition, the small size and easy control of the LED light source will lead to the diversification of the future design of the luminaire. Instead of the single appearance of incandescent or compact fluorescent lamps, in this case, more energy and materials will be consumed. To realize the needs of diversified design, from the perspective of life, LED light source will definitely bring more colorful visual experience to the world in the future, but industry insiders also claim that it is understandable to pursue a better life experience, but whether it is true or not. It takes time to calculate the need to spend more resources to achieve this goal. After all, LED light source has always emphasized the effect of “energy saving and environmental protection”.

In summary, whether the overall production of LED lamps has the purpose of energy conservation, more authoritative research experts, production companies and related institutions are required to jointly investigate and analyze the total amount of energy consumed in various stages of the production process, for unsuspecting industry professionals. Even the mass consumers solve their doubts.
