China's LED lighting industry is at a new crossroads. What kind of attitude should we embrace the future?

At present, there are more than 5,000 LED application companies in China, of which 66.4% are distributed in the Pearl River Delta region of Guangdong, accounting for 17.3% in the Yangtze River Delta region. China's LED industry has formed a relatively complete industrial chain, basically forming five regions of the Pearl River Delta (Guangdong), the Yangtze River Delta (Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Shanghai), the northern region, Fujian Jiangxi and other southern regions.

"A new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation are creating new opportunities in history. The development environment and conditions at home and abroad are undergoing profound changes. Industrial development is also facing a new situation. Semiconductor lighting is standing at a new starting point in history." Cao Jianlin, former deputy minister of the Ministry of Science and Technology, said at the China International Semiconductor Lighting Forum held recently.

Taking the implementation of “National Semiconductor Lighting Project” as the starting point, China's semiconductor lighting industry has rapidly become the world's largest LED manufacturing base after 13 years of rapid development. The strength of the company has gradually grown and its ability to participate in international competition has been further enhanced. In this context, the capital integration and expansion of Chinese companies overseas has been repeatedly blocked. A few days ago, the US Foreign Investment Committee responsible for foreign investment informed Ai Siqiang and China Fujian Hongxin Fund, which proposed the takeover offer, that it still had security concerns about the merger and asked Ai Siqiang to abandon the transaction. Previously, the acquisition of Philips' Lumileds by Chinese companies was also blocked.

Whether it is under the general trend of China's economy entering a new normal or the adjustment of the global industrial structure, China's semiconductor lighting industry has entered a new crossroads. What new developments in the industry have been revealed in this forum? Can you point out new directions for the semiconductor lighting industry to meet new opportunities and challenges?

status quo

Rapid development and multi-party linkage

"It is estimated that in 2016, the domestic market share of LED lighting products will exceed 30%, the output value of LED lighting will exceed 520 billion yuan, and the growth rate will exceed 23%. In 2020, the overall output value of China's semiconductor lighting industry will reach 1 trillion yuan, LED lighting The product market share can reach about 60%." Wu Ling, secretary general of the National Semiconductor Lighting Engineering Research and Development and Industry Alliance (CSA) forecast.

Looking back on the rapid development of the semiconductor lighting industry, Cao Jianlin, former deputy minister of the Ministry of Science and Technology, said that in 2003, China established the National Semiconductor Lighting Engineering Coordination Leading Group and launched the “National Semiconductor Lighting Project”, which was successively in the “Tenth Five-Year Plan” and “Eleventh Five-Year Plan”. In the 12th Five-Year Plan, through the joint support of the National Key Basic Research and Development Program (973 Program), the 863 Program and the Science and Technology Support Program, we will achieve linkages between different fields and jointly overcome some core technologies that restrict the development of China's semiconductor lighting industry. Bottleneck problem. In September 2009, the Ministry of Science and Technology launched the pilot project of “Ten Cities and Ten Thousands” semiconductor lighting application engineering.

With the active cooperation and strong support of relevant departments and local governments, technological progress has been significantly improved, effectively promoting the integration of semiconductor lighting application technology, promoting the formation of market mechanisms and business models, and significantly enhancing the social awareness of semiconductor lighting. At present, China has made breakthroughs in some key technologies, and the gap with the international advanced level has been narrowing. In 2015, the power white LED chip realized the industrialized light efficiency of 150lm/W on the basis of the laboratory light efficiency of 160lm/W; the industrialized light efficiency of the power type silicon-based LED chip with independent intellectual property rights exceeded 140lm/W. Received the first prize of the 2015 National Technology Invention Award.

"At the same time, China's general lighting application technology is at the forefront of the world. The innovative application technologies such as agriculture and medical care are synchronized with the international advanced level. Visible light positioning is the first commercial application in the world. China's semiconductor lighting has great opportunities in general lighting and innovative applications. Cao Jianlin said.

Turning key to promote cross-border joint

The “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” period is the stage of accelerating the reshuffle of the semiconductor lighting industry. The major enterprises have become bigger and stronger through mergers and acquisitions, which has become an important trend in the pattern adjustment and industry development.

“Because the technology and products of semiconductor lighting are still in a rapid development stage, the speed of products entering the market far exceeds the standards, the establishment of certification systems and the perfection of market supervision mechanisms. Specifically, product standards, energy efficiency standards and applications of semiconductor lighting The norm has not yet been systematically established; the regulatory mechanism needs to be improved; consumers' awareness of semiconductor lighting products is still immature." Wu Ling said that most emerging industries have a rush of competition, disorderly competition, low standards of violations, enterprises and products. The fish industry is mixed, and the LED industry is currently going out of pain from this stage.

Wu Ling said that the "13th Five-Year Plan" is a key period for the development of China's semiconductor lighting industry. The national industry authorities will focus on promoting top-level design; promoting core technologies, high-end product development and industrialization; and guiding Chinese LED lighting companies to develop international production capacity. Cooperation, encourage enterprises to introduce new foreign technologies, digest, absorb, innovate and strengthen cross-border integration; encourage enterprises to actively explore foreign markets through various means such as overseas investment and infrastructure construction, and drive domestic LED products and technologies to “walk” Go out and wait. In addition, it is necessary to further strengthen inter-departmental collaboration and market supervision, optimize the industrial development environment, strengthen standards construction, open professional services such as analysis, testing, and evaluation, establish third-party standards, certification, and credit evaluation systems, and establish effective LED product certification. Sex and credibility, build an international certification brand; implement supervision and management of LED product testing and certification work, and give play to the technical evaluation and guiding advantages of third-party inspection and testing institutions.

Ren Shuben, Director of the Department of Environmental Protection of the National Development and Reform Commission, revealed that in order to further optimize and improve the market environment and policy environment of the LED lighting industry, the current 13th Five-Year LED lighting industry development plan is being researched and formulated, and is ready to solicit opinions from relevant departments. Strive to be released years ago.

Satisfy the need to be seen outside

“High-quality, personalized and multi-form lighting products through on-demand lighting; intelligent hardware, Internet of Things, smart city development through smart lighting; development of lighting and medical, health care, agriculture, communications and other fields through beyond lighting Closely combined, these are new topics," said Co-Chairman of the International Semiconductor Lighting Alliance (ISA) Advisory Committee, Professor Zhang National Flag of Delft University in the Netherlands.

He analyzed that in the future, multi-technology integration for the Internet of Things will become an important trend in the development of the LED industry. LED technology will be deeply integrated with intelligent sensing, recognition technology, low-power wide-area intelligent IoT technology, and can be used as intelligent hardware to support the "Internet +" artificial intelligence technology solution. Lighting may be one of the earliest applications to realize smart homes and even smart cities. “The public lighting system is the most popular urban infrastructure, and it can carry many applications beyond lighting,” said Zhang Guoqi.

Philips Lighting recently announced its latest smart connected lighting project, transforming the Madrid landmark Euro Tower (TorreEuropa) into a highly secure, highly interconnected, future-oriented smart office building. Philips Lighting partnered with major building shareholders to install 5,400 smart connected luminaires for the building, covering 19,600 square meters of office space. The new smart connected lighting system uses Power over Ethernet to connect the luminaires to the IT network inside the building. Anonymous data captured by the built-in sensors of the fixture is collected, stored, shared, and transmitted by the system. It is reported that by 2020, 70% of new commercial buildings will be equipped with smart connected lighting systems. Smart connected lighting systems with data analysis capabilities are also emerging.

"Beyond Lighting" is becoming a hot word, meaning that LEDs will meet many needs other than "be seen," such as agricultural lighting, light medical, and optical communications. Professor Yan Jia, Dean of the Eye Visual Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University, proposed that with the biological effects of light gradually recognized by people, LED as a new type of light source is gradually being applied to medicine and playing an active role, of course, facing Many challenges, such as the unclear mechanism of illumination on health, lack of a healthy lighting standard system for Chinese people and special populations, etc. In the future, we should further study the physiology, pathology and treatment mechanism of illumination on various human systems, based on big data. Quantify health assessment systems, etc.

Cao Jianlin said that to move from a big lighting manufacturing country to a lighting industry powerhouse, one must continue to keep pace with the times and grasp the new technologies, new economy and new business forms brought about by the Internet of Things, big data, medical care, health care, agriculture and communications. Opportunity; Second, we must continue to promote cross-border, innovation, integration, and development, and strive to explore the establishment of new guidance for technological innovation, new support for technology services, and new forms of technology services linked by financial capital, through cross-sectoral, cross-sector, and cross-regional Collaborative innovation channels to form a synergy; third, we must actively face the third-generation semiconductor materials and application layout; Fourth, we must continue to open our minds and embrace change.
