"Xiamen will become the leader of the LED industry in the west coast of the Straits." Kong Shuguang, deputy director of the Xiamen Municipal Science and Technology Bureau, said that from 2007 to 2010, Fujian will take Xiamen as the core to form the LED industrialization base on the west coast of the Straits. By 2020, Xiamen It is necessary to form an industrial cluster in the field of color and white light general lighting, and realize an industrial scale with an annual sales income of 10 to 120 billion yuan, making Xiamen an internationally competitive LED industry cluster.
LED technology is a green light source with energy saving and environmental protection. It has long life, no heat radiation, energy saving and no pollution. Its wide application is one of the effective ways to save energy, develop circular economy and build ecological civilization. The planning of Xiamen's LED industry is in line with the requirements of the “Greater and Stronger Energy Saving and Ecological Industry” proposed by the 17th National Congress.
So, what is the development of the LED industry in Xiamen? How should we guarantee to strengthen and expand the eco-energy industry? What impact will it have on our citizens' lives? Yesterday, the reporter had a dialogue with the Deputy Director of the Xiamen Municipal Science and Technology Bureau, Kong Shuguang.

Quality takes the lead in forming "Xiamen Standard"
Reporter: As an emerging high-tech industry, LED still lacks a unified technical standard in the world. The quality of products is judged to be chaotic. Excuse me, will there be any breakthrough in Xiamen in this regard?
Kong Shuguang: Yes, as the saying goes, there is no rule. The LED industry is faced with such a "no rules" puzzle.
Since this is an emerging high-tech industry, LED products do not have a unified standard in the country and the world. LED products with different brightness and brightness, but due to the lack of uniform technical parameters, no one can distinguish between good and bad. Frequently, there are different prices, high quality and high price.
At the special consultation meeting on “Promoting the Development of Photovoltaic Industry”, everyone is most concerned about the issue of semiconductor lighting inspection platform. If Xiamen has its own "Semiconductor Lighting Inspection and Certification Center", it can not only solve many problems in the development and application of LED products. In the future, it is expected to end the chaotic state caused by the absence of “standards” in the market. Based on this testing platform, we will take the lead in forming the “Xiamen Standard” for LEDs in China and strive to make it the standard of China and the world.
At present, the Xiamen Municipal Science and Technology Bureau is stepping up efforts to build a semiconductor lighting inspection system in Xiamen. In 2007, a total of 22 million yuan was invested to build the “Xiamen Semiconductor Lighting Inspection and Certification Center”, which is expected to be put into use at the end of the year.
Promote the promotion and application of public facilities
Reporter: For many Xiamen citizens, LED seems to be synonymous with nightscape engineering. In essence, as an ecological industry, it will bring huge benefits in energy conservation and even affect the quality of life of human beings in the future. Then, Xiamen LED industry, in the promotion and application of LED, what specific actions?
Kong Shuguang: In fact, compared with incandescent lamps and fluorescent lamps, LED light sources have 10 times longer life, 10 times energy saving efficiency, safety, environmental protection, rich colors, miniaturization and other significant advantages. If semiconductor lighting technology is widely used in white light general lighting, decorative lighting, etc., it is equivalent to saving two to three Three Gorges dams each year.
As far as Xiamen is concerned, at present, the application of LED, in addition to the familiar nightscape project, all the traffic lights in the city have also been modified with LED light source. When an intersection traffic light is replaced with an LED light source, it can save about 10,000 kWh a year. The city's traffic lights are replaced by LED light sources, which can save 2.6 million kWh of electricity a year. In addition, solar LED street lights have also been promoted in some scenic spots, traffic secondary roads and new rural construction in Xiamen.
In the future, Xiamen will further promote the application of LED in public facilities. The planning of the application of LED promotion in Fujian Province emphasizes: In the future, construction, transportation, public security, traffic police and other departments should vigorously promote the application of LED and photovoltaic products in public infrastructure such as public buildings, roads and traffic lights.
Directions let LED lighting enter the family
Reporter: LED has such a superior energy-saving effect, then when will Xiamen LED products enter the home on a large scale and become a substitute for household lighting?
Kong Shuguang: It can be said that this is one of the ultimate goals of the LED industry in Xiamen. For the whole industry, whoever does this first will be a hero. In fact, the LED industry has to be really big, and the field of home lighting is definitely a key direction.
Due to the high technical requirements of white LED home lighting, from the current point of view, from research and development to real promotion and application, a process is needed. However, this is an important issue to be overcome in Xiamen in the future.
The transition from energy-saving lighting to LED lighting will be the future development trend. In the future of development, energy-saving lamps will be low-end lighting products, and LED light sources will be high-end lighting products. Therefore, in the field of light illumination, Xiamen can guide the two camps of LED lighting and energy-saving lighting in the future, and integrate and develop together to overcome the problem of white LED home lighting.
In the LED home lighting research and development, Xiamen's cooperation with large domestic and foreign companies is also very important. At present, the five major lighting giants have a cooperative relationship with Xiamen enterprises. On this basis, Xiamen will further promote cooperation with these giants in the future. Through cooperation, introduce their advanced technology and realize technology transfer. At the same time, Taiwan is also very strong in LED lighting. Xiamen can take advantage of its geographical advantages and attract Taiwan's lighting giants through various preferential measures.
In addition, considering the sensitivity of some people to light, it is also the direction of Xiamen's future efforts to study the full-spectrum LED light source that makes people feel most comfortable.
Problem night vision engineering defect is due to talent restriction
Reporter: Although Xiamen's nightscape project has greatly improved the strength and application level of Xiamen's semiconductor lighting industry, it has also exposed certain problems. For example, the application product for LED night scene engineering has serious competition for homogenization and limited design level of landscape lighting. How will Xiamen overcome these problems in the future?
Kong Shuguang: In fact, the cause of these problems is largely due to the constraints of talent.
In the early night scenery project in Xiamen, attention to aesthetics, but the feasibility is relatively poor, and needs to be strengthened in terms of lighting, color configuration, building support, etc., which reveals that Xiamen's current lighting design professionals are still relatively lacking. However, the LED night scene engineering of some road sections was damaged, and the later maintenance failed to keep up, it was related to the lack of professional high-altitude installation personnel and maintenance teams. Due to the complicated structure of the LED night scene, many of the damages are not the quality problems of the LED tube, but because the installation is not installed, there are problems such as water leakage, poor line contact or switch failure. This has also been misleading, and some people think that LED life is problematic.
In this regard, Xu Lin, secretary-general of the Jiu San Society, pointed out in the research report that there is currently no professional LED aerial work company in Xiamen, nor has it issued a formal certificate to LED high-altitude operators. Many of the existing high-altitude workers are ordinary high-altitude workers. Due to lack of experience, it often leads to waterproofing, heat dissipation and UV protection of LED installation. Therefore, sometimes after a heavy rain, the LED night scenes of some sections cannot be used. At the same time, the professional maintenance team in the later period is relatively lacking.
In the end, how to solve this situation? I believe that cultivating a wide range of LED talents is a top priority for Xiamen. Here, not only the talents in manufacturing and manufacturing, but also the talents in installation and maintenance are needed.
Goal to make Xiamen an industrial cluster
Reporter: The optoelectronic industry represented by LED, together with software and bio-pharmaceuticals, has become the three pillar industries of Xiamen's key development during the 11th Five-Year Plan period. So, what is the specific goal of Xiamen in this industry?
Kong Shuguang: The development of the LED industry will be an effective way for Xiamen to build an ecological civilization, cultivate and expand the ecological industry, and develop a circular economy. The development of the LED industry will not only produce a complete industrial chain from substrate, epitaxial chip to packaging, but also bring about the development of downstream application industry and the development of related manufacturing industries. The full application of LEDs will enable backlights, displays, and illumination sources to form a huge terminal application market. It will also bring new opportunities for the development of Xiamen manufacturing industry by grafting optoelectronic technology into traditional manufacturing industries. benefit.
According to the photovoltaic industry planning of Fujian Province introduced this year, from 2007 to 2010, Fujian will take Xiamen as the core to form the LED industrialization base on the west coast of the Straits, radiating Fuzhou, Zhangzhou, Quanzhou and Longyan. By 2020, Xiamen will form an industrial cluster in the field of color and white light general lighting, achieving an annual sales income of 10 to 120 billion yuan, making Xiamen an internationally competitive LED industry cluster.
"triple jump"
