Global LED bulb penetration will increase to 12.5% ​​in 2013

Market research firm DIGITIMES Research analyst and project manager Lin Fenhui pointed out that although LED lighting accounted for only a small amount of output value in the overall lighting market, the estimated penetration rate in 2010 was only about 3.2%, but due to environmental protection awareness, various policies to promote, it is expected that LED bulbs will Become one of the products that are given priority to import energy-efficient lighting. If you do not consider the technology category, the current global light bulb market size is about 20 billion, with the 40W and 60W mainstream specifications of traditional light bulbs gradually being replaced, it is expected that by 2013, the global LED light bulb shipments will reach 2.5 billion, out The volume penetration rate is expected to increase to 12.5%.

According to the development schedule of LED lighting set by the US Department of Energy (DOE), the luminous efficiency target for 2010 is 140lm/W, and it will increase to 243lm/W by 2020. Due to the fact that many manufacturers have developed products with a level of 140 lm/W, it is estimated that if the luminous efficiency is raised at a rate of 15%-20% per year, the 2020 luminous efficiency standard set by the US Department of Energy should have an opportunity to be realized in advance. .

In terms of output value, DIGITIMESResearch emphasizes that in the past LED lighting applications were mainly based on portable lighting, decorative lighting, and indirect lighting. However, due to the fact that the traditional incandescent light bulbs will enter the ban on sales in 2012, it is expected that LED bulb shipments will grow significantly, and the output value will increase to 8 billion US dollars, pushing up the market share of LED lighting output by 10%.

With LED manufacturers such as Philips, Osram, and Cree actively expanding the general lighting market business, and many countries have begun budgeting to replace LED street lights, LED lighting prices have been declining year by year, and it is estimated that by 2013, The market share of global LED lighting output value is more likely to approach the 20% water level.
