US SSL Program: Promoting LED Development with National Power


In countries and alliances around the world, there are very few countries like the United States that focus on the development of solid-state lighting (SSL) technology and promote their industrialization. This is what we have seen in reviewing the SSL program developed by the US Department of Energy (DOE). in conclusion.

In fact, the European Union, Germany, Japan, South Korea and other places have similar plans, such as the European OLED 100.eu plan, but few are as profound as the United States. Because the United States in time, capital, human resources and the number of institutions are unmatched by other countries and organizations.

As early as 2000, the US Department of Energy began to vigorously promote research and development of solid-state lighting technology, supported many research and development projects, and achieved many achievements. It can be said that the implementation of the SSL plan has made considerable progress in the field of solid-state lighting. Why is the United States so much concerned about the development of solid-state lighting technology, based on what kind of considerations? In the current US economic recession, the financial bubble burst, today, what is the significance and role of the development of solid-state lighting?

New energy + energy-saving economy is the locomotive that leads the US economic recovery

Behind the US subprime mortgage crisis triggered by the global financial crisis is the hollowing out of the US manufacturing industry. Today, the US financial bubble has burst, and the United States urgently needs to find new locomotives to lead economic development, of which manufacturing will regain its important role.

In the end, those manufacturing industries will lead the development of the United States in the future. We can find some answers from many media and magazine reports. The new energy + energy-saving economy will focus on development.

US President Barack Obama’s energy and environmental development plan calls for the society to develop cheap, clean, and efficient energy. The Department of Energy's Office of Efficient and Renewable Energy plays a significant role in implementing Obama's plan and provides a bright future for the US's future energy strategy.

LED is a promising field where we can save energy and we can also get economic benefits and create jobs. Congressman Jeff Bingaman said. By 2012, lighting consumed nearly 10 quads of primary energy in the United States. (In 2005, the total US energy consumption was about 99.75 quads).

A nationwide solid-state lighting application program can save 32.5 quads of primary energy between 2012 and 2027, which is not possible with other lighting technologies. The Ministry of Energy has proposed a well-known SSL research and development program, which is jointly led by the government and industry. The purpose is to create a high-efficiency lighting market dominated by the United States, and to produce energy-saving, low-cost, high-quality lighting products through advances in semiconductor technology.

Based on national strategy to promote the development of solid-state lighting technology

This SSL plan in the United States is similar to the previous 863 plan in China. In fact, the United States has now raised the development of solid-state lighting technology to the height of national strategy.

The US Department of Energy DOE supports any research, development, demonstration, and commercialization activities related to SSL technology in China. As long as the goal of its advanced energy efficiency technology can be achieved, the main goal of DOE's SSL R&D is very clear, that is, to compare these New technologies that are more energy efficient with traditional light sources are ultimately commercialized.

Improving efficiency and reducing costs are important ways to achieve the US Department of Energy's great goal of zero energy consumption in buildings. Currently, 12% of household energy consumption in the United States comes from lighting, and 25% of energy consumption in commercial buildings comes from lighting. Does not include additional loads caused by heat generated by lighting. In the future, with the development of SSL technology, cost improvement and user acceptance, it will greatly reduce the generation of lighting energy consumption and ultimately reduce the total energy consumption. However, it takes a long way to achieve this estimate. The DOE deadline is 2025.

Part of the US Department of Energy's goal is to create a new efficient and comprehensive lighting product market through close cooperation between the government and industry to enhance the quality of the lighting environment, while at the same time achieving energy conservation and environmental protection. In the next few years, SSL light sources will expand their living space in the general lighting market, replacing some of the lighting technologies still in use today. DOE's development plan will ensure that US companies can maintain strong competitiveness in the next generation of lighting technology. It is vital to realize the strategic interests of the future with the power of the state.
