The "authoritative" and "feasibility" problems of domestic LED standards need to be broken

At present, the rapidly developing LED lighting industry in China is facing increasingly serious standard constraints. Although the relevant departments of the country have already introduced relevant standards for LED lighting, enterprises, design agencies and some experts from LED lighting do not agree with these standards. They believe that they are “invisible” and their Achilles heel is that they fully refer to traditional lighting. The standard does not have a product standard that is truly effective with LED lighting characteristics.

In addition to national and industry standards, local governments such as Guangdong, Shenzhen, Shanxi, and Jiangxi have also launched a series of local standards to guide the development of the LED lighting industry. Unexpectedly, however, the market does not buy for these standards. According to industry analysts, these standards are not designed for LED lighting at all, nor can they meet the development needs of enterprises.

During the just-concluded Guangzhou International Lighting Exhibition, the reporter learned during the interview that LED companies are very concerned about the development of current domestic LED standards. Many interviews indicate that domestic LED standards seriously restrict the development of the LED industry, especially downstream. The field of lighting. It can be said that the lag in the development of domestic LED lighting standards has an important causal relationship with the current chaos in the field of LED lighting. Then, from the perspective of enterprises, what is the current development of domestic LED standards? What do companies think about domestic LED standards?

Missing standards are common features of emerging industries

In response to the current domestic LED lighting market chaos, Sun Zhijiang, general manager of Jucan Optoelectronics Technology (Suzhou) Co., Ltd. said that there are several aspects of the current chaos, the most important of which is the lack of LED standards, the current LED standards. The development lag has seriously affected the development of the LED lighting market. Most of the thousands of LED companies in China are in the field of lighting. The lack of LED standards has led to the lowering of the industry threshold, which has brought potential hidden dangers to the development of the entire market.

Mr. Sun Zhijiang also said that the lack of LED standards should also be treated rationally. The lack of standards is a common feature of any emerging industry in the early stage of development. Facing a booming sunrise industry, various capitals have poured in and out. This will definitely affect the development of the industry's initial standards. Of course, in order for the LED lighting industry to continue, healthy and stable development, LED standards will become essential. Mr. Sun Zhijiang called for the introduction of a strong and enforceable national standard as soon as possible so that the market can be regulated and the entire domestic LED lighting industry can be upgraded to a higher level and enhance its international competitiveness. This requires the government and industry associations to work together with LED companies.

Domestic LED standards can be drawn from international standards

Mr. Wang Jian, general manager of GE Lighting Asia Pacific LED products, said that the construction of LED standards in China is a big problem. From a more objective point of view, the speed of China's LED standards is overall higher than that of other international companies. Slow, especially relative to European and American countries. For some standard products, such as LED bulbs, LED tubes, etc., there is still no same standard in China, which has brought a great degree of influence to the development of the industry.

Mr. Wang said that the reason for the slow development of domestic LED standards is that the current development of the LED industry has not yet reached a state of consensus among industry players. After all, there are many domestic LED companies and the technology development between enterprises is not balanced. At the same time, the rapid development of LED technology has made the LED standard face a large degree of frequent updates, making the standard update speed unable to keep up with the speed of technology advancement. Therefore, it can be said that the current LED standard formulation is difficult to adapt to the development of LED technology. The impact of the lack of LED standards is obvious. Without standards, companies can claim product performance according to their own wishes. This will mislead consumers to a certain extent, which will bring disadvantages to the development of the entire industry. The lack of energy-saving time for domestic energy-saving lamps is caused by the lack of domestic LED standards.

Looking forward to the introduction of common standards for LEDs across the Taiwan Straits

Due to the rapid development of the LED industry, the current LED industry, especially the downstream LED lighting industry, is in a chaotic situation. In the field of LED lighting, due to the lack of national LED lighting standards, there is no uniform standard in the industry, and there is no consistency in the product's nominality. At the same time, this has caused the threshold for entering the LED lighting field to be very low. The influx is the main cause of the current chaos.

Lin Zonghui, deputy general manager of Taiwan's Edison Optoelectronics China, said that China's LED industry market is too big for both current development and future prospects. This is also the reason why a large number of enterprises and capital are pouring into the LED lighting industry. This momentum cannot be stopped. What the state can do is regulation, such as in terms of policies and standards. In response to the current LED standards, Mr. Lin said that there are too many companies engaged in LEDs all over the country, and each place has different local standards, which has a great impact on the development of the entire domestic LED industry.

At the same time, the existing domestic LED standards lack independence. In the process of formulating domestic LED standards, the standards of European and American countries have had an important impact on their formulation, and the existing LED standards have more IEC standards for the EU. And the factors of the US Energy Star standard. This is very unfavorable for the development of domestic LED companies, especially for export-oriented enterprises. In this regard, Mr. Lin said that he expects the two sides to strengthen cooperation in LED standards and launch a set of common LED standards for the two sides of the strait, which will promote the development of the entire Chinese LED industry.

to sum up:

In view of the current domestic LED standards, we need to look at the status quo from a rational perspective and objectively. However, it is undeniable that from the perspective of enterprises and industries, the LED standard has already affected the development of the entire LED industry. Whether it is viewed from the customer or rationally, the national LED standards need to catch up with the industry demand has become increasingly high.

At the same time, the LED standards formulated by the state need to be based on the actual needs of enterprises and the development of the entire industry. It is the most important to formulate LED standards that have practically promoted the development of the entire LED industry. It is necessary to clearly grasp the industry in the process of formulating LED standards. The only way to develop a practical LED standard is to develop a trend. As long as the standards conform to the development trend of the industry and play a role in promoting and standardizing the development of the LED industry, the authoritative and enforceable issues of standards can be fundamentally solved.

In response to the existing global LED standards, Mr. Wang said that China's LED lighting standards have a large similarity with European IEC standards and the US Energy Star standards. In the current round of LED standard development, The US Energy Star standard is at the forefront. According to Bi, the US Energy Star standard has clear regulations on the performance of LED lighting products. This has certain reference for the development of LED standards in China, such as the development of LED standards in Korea and Taiwan. In essence, it is an IEC standard, but there are also a large part of the US Energy Star standard factor in the development of its standards.
