In the international market, the energy crisis , the world has gradually entered the "energy era" , countries actively through legislation and government guidance , etc., out of incandescent and other low energy -efficient products , to develop LED lighting industry . Today , the government and the dual push the market to environmental protection , energy saving, emission reduction targets in the rapidly growing popularity of public lighting in the area , and to commercial lighting , office lighting , home lighting market penetration positive , which also contributed to the field of LED lighting in the world share rising rapidly into the LED lighting era.

Overseas Home Lighting Market Growth Can Be Expected

Current , LED penetration in the global marketplace is rapidly improving . According to global market research firm estimates that in 2014 the output value of LED lighting market $ 35.3 billion , representing a growth of 47.8% in 2013 , 2014 LED lighting penetration rate will increase to 32.7 %, of which the most widely used light bulb and lamp penetration rate of 20 % and 15 %, respectively.

In the past, the LED lighting market , due to higher prices and other reasons, the civilian market penetration has been low . With the continuous decline in LED lighting technology to improve and prices , governments gradually released to ban incandescent and other favorable policies , the highly anticipated civilian market began to really open the door to greet the arrival of LED era. According to foreign UBS Securities noted that in 2014 the global LED lighting demand will surge 60% ​​, with the largest growth of household lighting , next year will be greatly increased 9 percent, well above the 37% and 57% for industrial use commercially . Estimated LED chip demand will drive next year to grow by 25%.

In the international market , various countries and regions of the world is now generally introduced a plan to phase out incandescent lamps , including Europe, America , Japan and China are all 2-3 year plan to completely phase out incandescent lamps. Respective countries have developed a plan to promote LED lighting and related financial subsidy policy . These plans and policies will undoubtedly accelerate the popularization of LED lighting products. Countries have introduced energy saving policies are largely civilian market has become the key to stimulate the outbreak . Today, support for LED lighting products , subsidies, applications , government procurement , not only largely stimulate market demand, but also makes the relevant companies in the development and management aspects of energy saving direction to go higher energy efficiency .

LED subsidy policy to promote the implementation of the most successful was undoubtedly the U.S. and Canadian markets , as long as the application of LED lighting products to the Energy Star certification , consumers can enjoy direct subsidies to purchase price . U.S. LED maker Cree (Cree) launched this 9.5 -watt LED bulb ( replace 60 -watt incandescent bulb ) , the retail price of only $ 9.97 , more importantly , this lamp has passed the U.S. Energy Star certification, EVERY $ 5 pieces subsidy , which represents consumers can buy with $ 4.97 , equal to the energy-saving light bulbs (about $ 2-5 ) prices are pretty , greatly stimulated the local usage and penetration of LED lighting products.

Last year the rapid penetration of LED commercial lighting upgrade , boosting the capacity utilization of the chip , but due to LED chip prices continue to fall, leading to an increase in output amplitude degrees inferior production rate is expected to grow in 2014 will be of the same magnitude , the output value will reach 992 million dollars.

In the case of the rise of mainland Chinese domestic chip manufacturers , chip manufacturers in Taiwan and international market share in China is gradually narrowing.

LED inside analyst Yu Bin said that the first half of 2013 LED commercial lighting market, strong demand , accelerate the transformation of traditional lighting speed , midstream to downstream packaging manufacturers have integrated lighting , lighting chip lead in the first half of the power once out of stock phenomenon .

Current chip-based lighting manufacturer in capacity utilization is rapidly improved. BDO Runda LED chip revenue in 2012 only 35.5 million, in 2013 reached U.S. $ 56.5 million , over half of the growth . Harmony photoelectric 2013 revenue growth is double . The three safety optoelectronics, Tongfang Optical and Hua Leiguang electricity, capacity utilization remained at a high level.

As originally based monitor chip manufacturers have also increased investment in the lighting area. This is due to the display chip market in 2013 showed a downward trend in price rapidly , resulting in lower prices profits slump , this is the display chip maker will add one of the reasons illuminated chip investment. The proportion of revenues HC SemiTek LED lighting chips is gradually increased, by the end of 2013 reached five percent , while Silan Azure new production machines, lighting will also be used to produce chips .

According to LED inside data show that in 2013 China -made LED chip rate has reached 80%. In the case of the rise of mainland China 's domestic chip manufacturers , chip manufacturers in Taiwan and international market share in China is gradually narrowing.

Since 2013 , LED full business orders , increase product yield, synchronous growth in sales , business at full load or overload, capacity utilization gradually put l . The next generation of LED lighting products have become the development direction of the new light source , the product has been further promoted through demonstration and application of energy saving effect is increasingly significant. 2014 How will the development of LED industry ? Us in several ways , the middle and lower reaches , and other equipment for the industrial development trend analysis and forecasting .

Upstream: the price war is turning into a battle LED technology increasing output without increasing the chip industry , and sapphire prices will continue , so the chip is not much room for price cuts .

Say the beginning of the 2013 war and the merger price war , then, after 2014 , LED upstream industry will gradually shift technology warfare and patent battle . 2013 LED chip industry has been in a state of increasing output without increasing , and sapphire prices will continue , so the chip is not much room for price cuts . If there is no breakthrough in technology, the next two years the price cut will be slowed down.

After 2013 the major corporate mergers , consolidation, expansion, domestic chip companies already have large-scale production capacity. Meanwhile , a preliminary patent issues also emerged , each company by strengthening R & D , the formation of patent pools and other ways to avoid the risk of patent brings . 2013 a wholly owned subsidiary of Sanan Optoelectronics LighteraCorporation to $ 22 million acquisition of U.S. LuminusDevices, Inc ( hereinafter referred to as the United States lumens ) 100% equity . American lumens in the world with 151 patents , covering all aspects of LED chips, packaging , systems and applications , the company's main high-power chips, committed to the development of a large area of ​​high-efficiency LED chip . Acquisition will significantly enhance American lumens three optical chip technology strength in power , but also solve some of the patent issues , the international development of its open windows.

Midstream : lighting market growth driven by large-scale package .

Being squeezed on both upstream and downstream packaging business through alliances, mergers and other methods , with large-scale production to ease the pressure of survival .

In 2013 the global LED lighting market is growing rapidly . Data show that in 2013 the output value of LED for lighting applications reached $ 3.7 billion , the total output value of LED packaging ratio reached 29%. Lighting accounts for 2014 the proportion of the overall package will reach 33 percent , becoming the highest proportion among all LED application category . 2014 expects the global LED lighting product shipments will grow 68% , the output value reached 17.8 billion U.S. dollars . LED lighting needs by the good influence , many packaging companies in 2013 exceeded the value of the highest level . In light of the current market penetration becomes saturated , China LED packaging companies how to grasp the opportunity of rapid development of the global lighting market , will become an important factor in determining the success or failure of the enterprise .

Currently wafer is a gradual transition from 2 inches to 4 inches , gradually reduce chip cost , if the technology is mature, the next few years, chip prices have declined or space , so companies are forced to engage in technological breakthroughs upstream work . And when the technology has reached a bottleneck when it can only compress industry chain . Chip companies began to extend the package , and some chip manufacturers have even started manufacturing lamps directly .

Meanwhile, many companies have begun to do the downstream package, subject to both the upstream and downstream extrusion packaging companies can only go upstream or downstream . However, the scale of investment upstream LED industry , the technical threshold is much higher than the middle and lower reaches , the possibility of packaging companies to upstream expansion is small, so many choose to expand downstream packaging factory to make lamps.

Thus , packaging companies will go in both directions . First, the horizontal, vertical integration , and take the road of scale . The form and size of the package according to the needs of downstream customers to produce, resulting in lower customer demand for many packaged product model more, and so many product models do not meet the requirements of large-scale production . So some aspect of packaging companies began merger , through alliances, mergers and other methods , with large-scale production to ease the pressure of survival . Large companies formed a strategic alliance with the downstream , eat small enterprise market space, which are concentrated market area , large-scale performance. Second part of the packaging companies will extend downstream . Packaging switch to lighting companies can do their own package , and then do the product , and then the high cost and large-scale production and improve the competitiveness of enterprises, but the weak market channels is the biggest problem facing these packaging factory .

Downstream: high low-end products targeted specifically because most companies will channel funds to build the high cost and large enterprises at home and abroad choose to do OEM or ODM.

2013 global lighting market is the most important feature of LED lighting products , with the rapid decline in prices and the elimination of incandescent and other factors, the global outbreak of the LED light source to replace the traditional tide . Bulb and lamp which is its most popular alternative source. 2014 , lower product prices, actively seeking tenders , and vigorously promote the construction and reconstruction of road lighting , intelligent lighting and promote the brand image , etc., will become the main development strategy for the global LED lighting manufacturers .

On the domestic market, with the rapid start indoor lighting market , the traditional lighting companies gradually fought LED lighting market. Transition quickly, there are channels resources traditional lighting companies have great advantages, but most LED companies will channel funds to build because of the high cost of domestic and foreign manufacturers choose to do OEM or ODM. The strength of the LED companies began to look for a wide range of channels, scale advantages of enterprise integration, or the formation of strategic alliances.

Equipment : Domestic MOCVD Charge Pending

Equipment not only to large capacity , have made ​​out a good product consistency , so as to allow the chip companies to accept domestic equipment.

MOCVD epitaxial furnace is the heart of LED production equipment , we generally put the number of MOCVD equipment as a measure of capacity. By the end of 2012, domestic equipment MOCVD equipment 1050 sets , the real mass production of less than 500 units, the operating rate of less than 50 %. LED market in the first half of 2013 to the good , LED enterprises continue to open MOCVD equipment has been purchased , and gradually reach full production ; companies are integrating through cooperation , mergers and acquisitions , and further release of production capacity.

With the rapid development of the domestic chip industry , chip localization rate continues to improve, demand for equipment increases. Domestic LED industry needs to have the strength of their own country's emergence MOCVD equipment manufacturing enterprises to upgrade technology and innovation capacity of the entire LED industry. The success of domestic MOCVD equipment , mainly in independent research and development and innovation , domestic enterprises must understand the advantages and disadvantages of foreign equipment , in order to achieve technological breakthroughs to achieve localization in the true sense . After years of research and a strong research and development of core technologies , domestic enterprises launched with its own characteristics of domestic MOCVD equipment , also marks the Chinese enterprises have made in the core of the LED chip production equipment at home on the road some results. MOCVD equipment made by means of long-term monopoly of foreign technology is broken, many domestic companies will bid farewell to the LED entirely dependent on foreign equipment.

2014 , domestic MOCVD equipment manufacturers will improve their strength following aspects : First, to improve the consistency and stability of the device , the device not only to large capacity , have made ​​out a good product consistency , so as to allow the chip companies to accept domestic equipment. The second is to enhance the production scale , can accept big orders at home and abroad , there are industrial production capacity of enterprises in order to achieve sustainable development. Third, improve technical support capabilities for the timely and chip corporate communications , customer needs to customize the device. Fourth, the localization of the core components of research . Parts processing involving gas control many aspects boxes , heaters, graphite trays , real mature these several parts is very difficult to do , so many of the core components of domestic production using MOCVD equipment manufacturers or imported from abroad. From a long-term perspective, the country lacks precision machining technology , many components require precision machining, so important for the study of key materials also make domestic enterprises to invest more effort. If we can break through these bottlenecks in the coming years MOCVD domestic manufacturers will accomplish much.
