LED solar street light is the future direction of the lighting industry
With the continuous development of energy-saving technology for solar street lighting, the protagonist of the traditional street lighting market is being converted from incandescent lamps to LED solar street lamps. In 2020, the global output of LED lamps has exceeded 7 billion, and now it is popular on various roads in large and small cities, urban and rural areas.
China is an important production base for LED solar street lighting products in the world, and its output accounts for more than 80% of the world's total output. China's LED solar street lighting industry has developed for several years and has a large number, but manufacturers with brand and channel advantages are the main force in the market.
With the wide application of new-generation information technologies such as the Internet of Things, the next-generation Internet, and cloud computing, smart cities have become an inevitable trend and have been gradually realized in various practices. Smart solar street lighting has received extensive attention from LED companies.
We interpret the smart city part to see that smart solar street lighting is the main development direction of LED solar street lighting. China's smart solar street lighting market is still in its infancy, the industry is in chaos, the standards have not yet been perfected, and the business model is still being explored. The industry needs to overcome these difficulties before it can develop healthily.
In the field of visible light communication, many giant companies have already laid out. Some industry experts believe that LEDs, which are emitting light sources for visible light communication, are ubiquitous, and their number is more than 10,000 times that of current wireless communication base stations and access hotspots. It will play a huge role in promoting the marketization of visible light communication. Visible light communication with deep integration of communication can also expand the LED market scale and further enhance the added value of the industry.
As a leading technology in the field of automotive lighting, LED solar street lighting technology has become an important trend in the development of automotive lighting in the future with its strong technological advantages. All major LED manufacturers are exploring new blue ocean markets one after another, seeing the broad development prospects of LED automotive solar street lighting, and accelerating the deployment of automotive LEDs.
Throughout the international solar street lighting giants, Philips solar street lighting has successively created a new model in the field of smart cities, collaboratively built a smart city backbone network, and promoted the construction and application development of smart city infrastructure in China. An Osram spokesperson once said: Osram will focus more on the needs of "smart cities" and "smart buildings" to meet the growing demand for smart interconnected solar street lighting solutions.
