On the whole, the growth of LED bulb in lighting market can be divided into 3 stages: incandescent lamp, fluorescent lamp and energy-saving lamp are the main lighting source. The price of LED is higher and is still at the stage of demonstration and mainly to substitute incandescent lamp before 2012. From 2012-2014, with the international implement of incandescent forbidding policy, the incandescent lamp is gradually disappearing from the market after 2012. At this stage, energy-saving light market is expected to enter into the growing fastigium and will hold the main market share of lighting. But by 2014, LED bulb is hopefully to massively substitute incandescent lamp and fluorescent lamp and become more mature. At the same time, the cost is declining and it will be even faster because of the increasing factories entering LED industry. The explosion of LED market may be 1-2 years in advance.
The bright future of LED indoor lighting is without any doubt. How should domestic act to wait for the right time facing with the future market? At present, they need to focus on patents and technology and do some promotion to improve the understanding of customers. At the same time to carry out standardization and normalization to let the customers to choose between 20-50 standard products but not among thousands of products. Or the customers will feel annoying not finding the substitutional product, Zhangli said.
Zhouxiang, General manager of Sanghai research center of Leishi lighting said that as to enterprises, they should strengthen the ability of research and development, mastering more competitive technology. Second, enterprises need to get settled down to make good-quality products. Facing with the large LED lighting market, the enterprises may not be perfect in every aspect. Shen Jinxiang, the president and general manager of Zhejiang Shenghui Lighitng Co., Ltd stated that it was quite important to capture and give full play of the own advantages either for traditional lighting or LED lighting enterprises.
