LED Will Replace Incandescent

In order to reduce carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions, address global warming, many countries set off a wave of out inefficient incandescent light.

EU 2007 launched a energy saving lamps use plans, the office and street lighting facilities, household or other forms of incandescent lamps made ​​more stringent energy efficiency requirements, target in the phasing out of incandescent in private households previously 2009. Its Member States have adopted a related move, such as the UK announced in 2011 to phase out incandescent; Irish Government has set out a timetable for incandescent lamps; Belgium, Portugal, Switzerland, France has done a similar declaration.

U.S. will phased out the use of incandescent light bulbs from December 2007. Federal standards will be conducted in two stages, the first stage is from 2012 to 2014, banned 100 watts lamps, covering all commonly used lamps, up to about 25-30% energy savings objective. After 2020, the U.S. Department of Energy and other departments will take more mandatory measures. In April 2007, Canada announced in 2012 before phasing out inefficient incandescent light bulbs.

In Asia, Japan announced with local retailers, such as convenience stores, supermarkets and electronics stores to promote the use of fluorescent on September 21, 2007, and called upon citizens change incandescent into energy saving lamps. Thailand, the Philippines, has begun to take measures to promote the use of energy-saving light bulbs instead of incandescent bulbs.

Cuba is the world's first country eliminate incandescent lamps, each incandescent lamp will be replace by energy saving lamp between 2006 and 2007, and to prohibit sale and production of incandescent. Australia is also in action eliminate incandescent country, as early as February 2007 announced that the relevant laws and regulations, and in 2010 a comprehensive ban incandescent. Egypt, Argentina, Indonesia, South Africa and Vietnam are considering similar programs eliminate incandescent. Ghana has been proposed ban on imports of incandescent lamps and other high energy-consuming draft. Brazil and Mexico are all taken to promote the use of energy saving bulbs replace incandescent initiatives.

Incandescent era has gone, LED lamp is lighting the world. The current global incandescent disabled FMCT will be triggered by alternative lighting such as energy-saving lamps and LED to create a huge market demand. LED lighting demand is quickly upgrade to the relevant requirements offers great opportunities of Materials. LED lighting demand is quickly upgrade offers great opportunities to the relevant requirements of rare metal materials.

LED core material is gallium (Ga) and arsenic (AS), phosphorus (P), made ​​of a compound semiconductor indium chip light-emitting material. The rapid development of the global LED lighting, will drive demand for gallium and indium rapid growth, will drive more and more businesses and individuals concerned about this rare metal indium and gallium.
