the pilot project following with other kinds of LED lighting

Mr. Sutat Patmasiriwat, Governor of LED high bay light, said “During the past 19 years, EGAT has done everything it can to raise energy awareness. In 2012, EGAT noted that LED lighting will be the new innovation that can reduce energy losses in the country. Hence, EGAT launched the “LED Lighting Campaign” in order to encourage the use of high quality electrical lighting system, starting from the development and certification of the MR16 LED Label No. 5 as the pilot project following with other kinds of LED lighting.

In order to promote the campaign, EGAT will host the international exhibition on LED lighting products and technology under the name “LED Expo Thailand 2013” during 23th -25th May, 2013 at Hall 4 - IMPACT Muang Thong Thani. This is the first LED Lighting Expo in Thailand. The event will present the latest LED technology and inventions from international entrepreneurs. It will also act as a center for exchanging technology and academic knowledge between manufacturers and consumers.” Mr. Sutat added.

LED Expo Thailand 2013 is one project to promote LED lighting by EGAT.  The LED lighting has high quality with long lifespan. The LED lighting can reduce energy consumption 30-85%. It is also mercury free and therefore safe for the environment. Research from EGAT shows that using 500,000 MR16 LED lighting, energy consumption will be annually reduced by 12 million units or 36 million Baht in energy cost saving. Meanwhile, it will also annually reduce 6,600 tons of carbon dioxide emission. In 2011, LED lighting for lamps growth was 50% expecting another 30% per annum increase for the next 5 years.

Mr. Loy Joon How, General Manger of IMPACT Exhibition Management Co., Ltd, revealed “IMPACT and MEX Exhibitions are preparing over 5,000 square meters so that the LED Expo Thailand 2013 will be the perfect stage for top electric companies to show their LED products directly to consumers, including buyers from industrial sectors and among other businesses from domestic and overseas markets. 5,000 visitors are expected including buyers who will engage in negotiations such as designers and architectures, hotels, resorts, housing and condominium operators, industrial factories, local organizations, and both private and public sectors which are the target groups the organizing party aims to promote more LED products for their projects.

In order to take maximum advantage of opportunities

Recently, China government promoted LED solid state lighting and listed Beijing as a level-one city for demonstration. Meanwhile, BOE's 8G plant scheduled to start mass production in 2011, LED backlight unit (BLU) demand from BOE was expected to surge. Additionally, Everlight was listed as one of BOE's backlighting suppliers. In order to take maximum advantage of opportunities, Everlight decided to set up a production plant in Beijing. Market sources noted, Currently all LED Linear high bay light notebook products were LED backlit. BOE's overall LED demand from its 5G and 6G plants was expected to exceed one billion chips in 2011, and to over seven billion chips when BOE's advanced production lines came online in the future. If BOE's 8G line fully adopted LED backlighting, BOE would need the support of about 20 LED production lines, or five billion LED chips per year, and generate CNY10 billion (US$1.5 billion) worth of industry value. The vertically-integrate...
