Tie-nan, the main drafter of the national road lighting standard, the implementation of China's green lighting project "began in 1996. An important step to achieve this plan is to develop and promote efficient, energy-saving lighting fixtures, saving electricity for lighting, reduce environmental and keychain flashlight pollution, the establishment of a high quality and efficiency, economic comfort, safe, reliable, environmentally friendly lighting systems. In particular the establishment of the working group of the Chinese semiconductor lighting in 2003, marking the government for the development of the field of LED lighting high hopes for the LED as the portable lamp source into the general lighting market to become the core of future industrial development.
The promotion of the "National Semiconductor Lighting Project", Shanghai, Dalian, Nanchang, Xiamen and Shenzhen have formed semiconductor lighting industrial bases. Min Delta Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta, as well as the northern region become a gathering place for the development of China's LED industry.
At present, China's LED industry has formed a relatively complete industrial chain, experienced buying the device, to buy chips, buy the road epitaxial wafers, has been achieved in the production of epitaxial wafers and chips. At this stage, the number of people engaged in the industry of more than 50,000 people, more than 20 research institutions, more than 4,000 enterprises; upstream firm more than 50, more than 1,000 packaging companies, more than 3,000 enterprises downstream applications, and the emergence of a number of innovation, strong technology, advanced enterprises.
