It is estimated that LED usage in 2011 will grow by 20% compared with 2010. In 2010, LED backlighting and lighting total revenue will be 7.2 billion U.S. dollars, and in 2014 it is expected to reach 12.7 billion U.S. dollars. The increase in demand for the lighting market is the main driving force for the strong growth of LED. Currently, LED's main applications include lighting and backlighting applications, such as LCD TVs.
"The overall LED market demand continues to increase, but the demand for LED backlighting has gradually decreased and it has begun to shift towards LED lighting applications." Leo Liuu, senior analyst at DisplaySearch, said that due to LED backlighting in the fourth quarter of 2010, the first quarter of 2011 and the second quarter of 2011 TV inventory is high and sales are slow, so the demand for LED backlighting is reduced. Currently, LED backlighting is used in all small and medium-size LCD products. The penetration rate of mobile PCs is nearly 100%, and the penetration rate of LCD monitors and LCD TVs continues to increase, but the number of LED packages per LED is reduced.
DisplaySearch data points out that the total demand for LED backlighting in 2011 was 45.9 billion. Since 2010, LCD TVs have become the main application of LED backlighting, accounting for 50% of the demand, and is expected to reach the highest value in 2012. However, as the number of LED packages per unit decreases, TV demand will decline slightly in 2013. In the field of lighting, Japan is currently the world's largest LED bulb market, and the domestic LED lighting market is also rapidly heating up. The National Development and Reform Commission had previously released the draft of the “China's Roadmap for Phase-out of Incandescent Lamps†for consultation. From the perspective of the roadmap, the year after October 1 this year is the transitional period. Starting from October 1, 2012, it is prohibited to sell and import incandescent lamps for general lighting of 100 watts or more; 60 watts from October 1, 2014. And above prohibition; from 1 October 2016, 15 watts or more are prohibited. According to sources, the final version of the "China's Roadmap for Phase-out of Incandescent Lamps" will be officially released on October 1 this year. Make room for the rapid expansion of LED.
Before China, the EU, the United States, and other countries have already proposed incandescent lamp elimination schedules. On March 9, 2007, EU countries reached an agreement to gradually replace energy-consuming incandescent bulbs with energy-saving lamps within two years. The British government announced plans to completely abolish traditional tungsten bulbs by 2011. According to DisplaySearch, between 2011 and 2014, LED bulbs in China, North America, and Europe will grow faster than the rest of the world.
China is a major producer and consumer of incandescent lamps. Last year, incandescent lamp production and domestic sales were 3.85 billion and 1.07 billion, respectively. According to calculations, if all the incandescent lamps in use are replaced with energy-saving lamps, China can save 48 billion kilowatt hours of electricity, which is equivalent to reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 48 million tons. According to DisplaySearch, China will become the largest LED street lamp market in 2011, accounting for 55% of the world's market share, but it will decline slightly to 50% in 2014.
