Japan lighting appliance industry will be down for director of mud, according to Canon Japan lighting appliances do you currently have about more than 900 million, including about 20 million sets of LED lighting, calculated at the rate of Japan LED the penetration rate of only 2%.
Japan as early as 10 years ago began production and sales of LED lighting appliances, why now penetration is still low? Canon is introduced, the main reason is the quality of the LED lighting has yet to reach the ideal state, high-end LED lighting energy saving performance this year just good and fluorescent lamp, but most of the LED energy saving performance is still inferior to the fluorescent lamp. Although the life of the LED lighting is much longer, and fluorescent lamps but the price is a fluorescent lamp 2-3 times, price is no advantage. And the government is still promoting LED lighting,, because the future has very big improvement space.
It was reported that the Japanese economy, trade and industry since 2009 to develop the next generation lighting technology, as one of the project to increase the competitiveness of industry, the related grants, scientific research institutions to support research and development new LED lighting technology, fiscal year 2012 budget of the project is 1.67 billion yen. In addition, the Japanese government also provide subsidies for consumers and encourage residents to use LED lighting products.
Especially after the nuclear leak event caused by the Japan earthquake happened in 2011, people complained about the nuclear which is mainly power of the Japan. The electricity crisis increased after that and LED lighting product is a very green and energy saving product, though the prices is a little high at present, people will also need the LED lamp very much, this will also increase the spreading of LED lighting products in Japan.
