  LED development history has been decades, but the application in the field of lighting is still new technology. With the rapid development of LED technology and the gradual improvement of its luminous efficiency, the application market of LEDs will become more extensive. Especially in the context of rising global energy shortage concerns, the prospects of LEDs in the lighting market have attracted global attention. The industry believes that becoming the most promising market and the largest market in the next 10 years will be the products with the greatest potential to replace incandescent lamps, tungsten lamps and fluorescent lamps.

   At present, lighting consumption accounts for about 20% of the entire power consumption. Greatly reducing lighting power consumption is an important way to save energy. To achieve this goal, the industry has researched and developed many energy-saving lighting appliances and achieved certain results. However, the requirements for "green lighting" are far from enough, and it is imperative to develop and apply more efficient, reliable, safe and durable new light sources. LED is attracting the attention of the world with its inherent superiority. The United States, Japan and other countries and Taiwan have forecasted the benefits of LED lighting. 55% of incandescent lamps and 55% of fluorescent lamps in the United States are replaced by LEDs, saving US$35 billion in electricity bills and reducing 755 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions each year. The replacement of 100% incandescent lamps in Japan with LEDs can reduce the power generation of 1 to 2 nuclear power plants and save more than 1 billion liters of crude oil consumption each year. In Taiwan, 25% of incandescent lamps and 100% of fluorescent lamps are replaced by white LEDs, saving 11 billion kWh of electricity each year. Japan compiled the "21" Century Plan" as early as 1998 to conduct practical research on LED light sources for lighting in the new century. In recent years, Nichia Chemical, Toyoda Gosei, SONY, Jiayou Electric, etc. have all come out with LED lighting products. World-renowned lighting companies such as Philips, Osram, GE, etc. have also invested a lot of manpower and material resources in the research, development and production of LED lighting products. The United States GE and EMCORE have jointly established a new company to develop white LEDs to replace incandescent lamps, compact fluorescent lamps, tungsten halogen lamps and automotive lamps. Osram of Germany and Siemens cooperated to develop LED lighting system. Taiwan’s current LED output is second only to Japan before the United States. Since 1998, Taiwan has invested 600 million Taiwan dollars in related development work.
