Citing estimates that the global LED lighting industry's output will grow by a compound annual rate of 32 percent between 2010 and 2020, the Alliance said the brisk growth will drive the sector's expansion in the next few years.

In 2011, Taiwan accounted for about one-fifth of the production value of the global LED business, making it the third largest LED supplier in the world.

Alliance convener Alex Tong said the LED lighting business has flourished in the past few years on demand for street lights, but that demand has now extended to indoor lighting and even family living rooms, creating more opportunities.

Tong, the director of the Green Energy and Environment Research Laboratories under the government-financed Industrial Technology Research Institute, said he expects LED lights to account for half of the global lighting business in 2020 if its current pace of growth continues.

Analysts said several Taiwanese LED product suppliers, such as Delta Electronics, Chicony Power Technology, Lite-On Technology and Edison Opto, have devoted increasing resources to penetrating the LED lighting market to lift their sales.

Delta’s LED lighting division to see its sales double in 2013

Chiang Wen-hsing, head of Delta ' s LED lighting operations, said his company's revenue from LED lighting grew an estimated 30 to 40 percent in 2012 on strong demand for LED bulbs, tubes and lighting fixtures from the Europe, the United States, and Japan.

In 2013, Chiang said, Delta ' LED lighting division is likely to see its sales double because of even stronger global demand.

He said Delta will install an automated manufacturing process during the 2013-2014 period to further strengthen its production and cut operating costs.

Everlight Targetes doubling its LED lighting sales in 2013

Everlight said its LED lighting sales were better than expected in Q4 because of demand from Europe and the U.S. ahead of the Christmas holiday, said Hsu Hsi-chuan, head of the company's lighting research and development division.

The strong fourth quarter revenue also reflected rush orders from China, where buyers were eager to restock their inventories ahead of the peak Lunar New Year holiday buying season in mid-February.

Hsu said that judging from the orders the company has received, the LED lighting business is unlikely to feel the sales slowdown the industry traditionally faces in the first quarter.

Everlight has targeted doubling its LED lighting sales in 2013, and LED lighting is expected to make up 15-20 percent of the company's total revenue this year, compared with about 10 percent in 2012, Hsu said.

Chicony Power’s LED lighting accounts for 10% of total sales
Despite being a newcomer in the LED lighting industry, Chicony Power said it has entered the supply chain of two or three major global buyers and expected to expand its shipments to other major clients soon after they certify its technology.

Chicony Power said LED lighting is expected to account for 10 percent of the company's total sales for 2013, compared with about 5 percent in 2012.
