According to the US Department of Energy's 2006 statistics, lighting accounted for 11.6% of US residential electricity consumption, and commercial buildings consumed 24.8%. At present, LED lighting in the United States has reached a standard that can compete with traditional lighting. However, in terms of promotion, the biggest problem is that the price is too high, and OLED lighting is not yet in mass production.

Based on the results of the workshop in San Diego in February 2005, the US Department of Energy set a multi-year development plan to increase solid-state lighting performance and lower its selling price by 2020. The plan clearly pointed out that the average luminous efficiency target of cold white LED lamps in 2020 is 219lm/W, the OEM price target is 1 US dollar per thousand lumens; the luminous efficiency target of OLED lamps is 127lm/W, and the OEM price target is per thousand lumens. $6 or $80 per square meter.

According to DIGITIMESResearch, as the ultimate goal of solid-state lighting development is to replace traditional lighting and become a product commonly used in daily life, in addition to the above technical development goals, the Solid State Lighting Development Planning Committee has also set a market-oriented solid-state lighting by 2020. Development milestones, the goal for 2020 is to sell luminaires with a general-grade LED luminaire with a luminous efficiency of more than 140 lm/W and a price of less than $100 (this is in consideration of US price standards and consideration of lighting design and other factors).

In addition to setting solid-state lighting development goals, the US Department of Energy also provides subsidies from research and development to manufacturing, and support programs for promoting solid-state lighting products in the market. Although the current investment-to-manufacture investment distribution is still average, LED products The proportion of subsidies in manufacturing technology development has increased, indicating that the United States has begun to pay attention to the production of LEDs, and hopes to achieve the goal of reducing costs by improving production technology.
