Solid State Lighting Applications, Technologies, and Market Opportunities
Energized by improvements in the technology that have produced dramatic increases in light output for both high brightness (HB) and color LEDs, as well as significant extensions of LED life spans, LEDs now have powerful and vocal proponents among local, state and federal governments, commercial industries and private citizens. All of these groups have come together to spur widespread acceptance and increasing adoption of LEDs as a viable, mainstream, "green" technology. NextGen Research forecasts the overall solid state lighting market will achieve worldwide revenues that top $22 billion in 2009, growing to $33 billion by 2013.
