With the continuous emergence of emerging application markets, the LED market has rapidly increased in recent years. In 2005, China's LED output reached 26.21 billion, and the market scale exceeded 10 billion yuan to reach 11.49 billion yuan.
Application 1: The display is the main application market for LED, and the full-color display has a strong growth.
China's LED display market started earlier and there are a number of LED display manufacturers with strong capabilities in the market. Currently, LED displays have been widely used in stations, banks, securities, and hospitals. In the LED demand, the LED display is second only to the LED indicator, accounting for 23.1% of the total sales of LED. Because the LED used for the display screen has higher requirements on the brightness and life than the LED indicator, the average price is above the indicator LED, which leads to LED display screen market size reached 3.24 billion yuan, exceeding the indicator light to become the first to become LED's main application market. With its unique advantages, LED full-color displays are widely used in stadiums, municipal squares, concerts, stations, airports and other places.
Application II: The market for small-size backlights is slowing down, and the medium and large size will become new concerns.
LED has long been used in the small-size LCD panel backlight market dominated by mobile phones, and the continued growth in mobile phone output has driven the rapid development of the backlight source market. In particular, the emergence of color mobile phones in 2003 is to promote the rapid development of the white LED market. However, as the production of mobile phones has entered a stage of steady growth and technological improvements have led to a decrease in the number of LED backlights used in mobile phone LCD panels, LED usage in mobile phone backlight sources has slowed down. In 2005, the number of LED used in backlight sources exceeded 1.2 billion. The growth rate for several years will also remain in single digits. The slowdown in the growth rate of the number, coupled with the continuous decline in the average price, eventually led to the lack of growth in the small-size backlight market. At the same time, although the medium and large-size backlight market is the new darling of manufacturers, it cannot be scaled in 2006. Under the influence of the above two factors, the backlight market will see negative growth of 1% in 2006. In 2005, the backlight source market exceeded 1.5 billion yuan.
Application 3: The automotive lamp market has great potential, but it is difficult to start the market in the short term.
In 2005, the market size of China's LED automotive applications was 0.29 billion yuan, of which the automotive lamp market was 0.21 billion yuan. From the perspective of the entire LED application market, the automotive application market is still in its infancy and the market size is very small.
As a car headlight, LEDs mainly benefit from low power consumption, long life, and correspondingly high speed. Statistics show that when a car is driven at a speed of 100 kilometers per hour, a vehicle with an LED brake light will be reduced by 7 feet from a vehicle without an LED brake light. At present, LED has been gradually applied to the third brake light of the car. Although LED is still faced with low lumens per unit wattage and related policy restrictions, it will take some time before entering the tail lamp and headlamp market. However, as the cost performance ratio decreases and the luminous efficiency increases, eventually LED will gradually realize The shift from the interior of the car to the rear to the front eventually occupied the entire car headlight market. With the huge capacity of automobiles, the LED lamp market is facing tremendous potential for development.
Application No. 4: The market for interior decorative lights has gradually started, and the traffic light market has entered a period of steady growth.
The interior lighting market is another emerging market for LEDs. Through the control of the current, LEDs can achieve hundreds or even thousands of color changes. In the era of individualization at this stage, the diversification of LED colors helps the development of the LED decorative light market. LED has begun to make small decorative lights, decorative curtain wall used in hotels, homes. In 2005, the interior decoration lamp market reached 158 million yuan.
After years of replacement work, the replacement of traditional traffic lights with LED traffic lights in major cities across the country is nearing completion. After years of high-speed growth, the market for LED traffic lights reached 1.52 billion yuan in 2005. However, with the completion of the replacement work, the LED traffic light market will no longer maintain rapid growth. It is expected that in 2006 the LED traffic light market will only achieve a growth of 5.8% to 1.61 billion yuan.
Application 5: The rapid development of the landscape lighting market, and the market growth rate reached its peak in 2007.
The landscape lighting market is dominated by decorative lighting in public places such as streets and squares, and the driving force comes mainly from the government. Affected by the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games and the 2010 Shanghai World Expo, Beijing, Shanghai and other places have accelerated the pace of landscape lighting. Due to low LED power consumption, they have a strong market competitiveness in the landscape lighting market where the power consumption is huge. At present, LED has been increasingly applied to the landscape lighting market. In 2005, the scale of China's landscape lighting market exceeded 700 million yuan. Driven by these two major activities, the landscape lighting market will reach a high growth rate of 72% in 2007.
In addition, the main role of the Olympic Games and the World Expo is far from being driven by the growth of the landscape lighting market itself. What is more important is its role as an example. In order to welcome the opening of the Olympic Games and the World Expo, Beijing, Qingdao, Shanghai and other places will be built a number of LED landscape lighting projects, these projects will also play a demonstration role in decorating the streets. Other cities are seeing the outstanding performance of LED in landscape lighting will reduce the concern for the use of LED landscape lighting, accelerate the use of LED in landscape lighting applications. The LED will be rapidly expanded from the first-tier cities to the second and third-tier cities.
Application 6: The general lighting market has a long way to go.
For entering the general lighting market, in addition to the problems such as low luminous efficiency, poor heat dissipation, and high cost, power white LEDs will also face the integration of optics, institutions, and electronic control, as well as the development of common standards for LED lighting products. . It will take a long time to solve the above problems. CCID Consulting does not expect LED to enter the general lighting market until 2010.
Due to the low sensitivity to prices, commercial venues such as hotels, business clubs, and high-end commercial office buildings are low. At the same time, these high-end venues pay more attention to highlighting the status of quality and honor and have greater interest in emerging products. These have lowered the threshold of LED lighting entry. CCID Consulting expects that LED lighting will be the first to enter the commercial market and gradually expand to the civilian market.
