The government subsidy policy stopped the LED lighting industry

The financial subsidy policy for LED lighting industry in Yangzhou will end in July 2011. One stone provoked a thousand layers of waves and caused a chain reaction. Local governments that have also introduced similar subsidy policies are also observing whether they need to follow up. On March 4, an insider of the Yangzhou City Finance Bureau disclosed to the correspondent that subsidies for MOCVD equipment did not continue indefinitely, but the time to stop was still being discussed.

According to the amount of the first phase of the 2.5 billion yuan subsidy fund of the Yangzhou Municipal Government and the average MOCVD subsidy of 10 million yuan, the number of MOCVD units corresponding to the fund is about 250, and as of March 2011, the Yangzhou government’s external The number of publicly signed MOCVD investment agreements was 198, and there were 52 targets from the target.

Zhang Liansheng, deputy director of the Administrative Committee of Yangzhou Economic and Technological Development Zone, once revealed to the media that as long as the registration is completed before the deadline, even after the equipment purchase plan is in place, policy preferences can still be enjoyed.

Obviously, some of the comments made by relevant persons of the Yangzhou government earlier revealed some "meaning beyond words." One industry official also pointed out the mystery: "Under the investment thinking, the angle of local government's consideration of the problem is certainly not the same. The attitude expressed by individual governments means that there may be a wave of new layout booms in the first half of this year. "The key to the round of investment in government public lighting such as domestic street lamps in the first half of 2009 was officially due to the following factors.

On September 20, 2009, the National Development and Reform Commission jointly issued a Notice on the Development of Semiconductor Lighting Energy-saving Industry Development Opinions (hereinafter referred to as “Opinions”) jointly with five ministries, including the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and the Ministry of Finance. The notice pointed out some major issues to be solved for the current domestic semiconductor lighting (LED) industry development status, including domestic LED epitaxial materials and chips mainly in the middle and low; 80% of power LED chips and devices rely on imports; there are blind With the phenomenon of investment and low-level construction, some local governments have blindly reconstructed road lighting regardless of economic efficiency, excessively investing in landscape lighting, leading to unregulated industry competition, and so on.
