Latin America Market Review and Forecast          Direct from ElectroniCast regional office in Peru, this report provides the research findings of our study of Latin American consumption of Light Emitting Diode (LED) lamps (also known as “consumer-level bulbs”), which are used in luminaires in stationary/fixed location (non-vehicle/non-portable) solid-state lighting (SSL) General Lighting applications. The lamps are lamps are used in new construction, as well as retrofitting/ replacement of existing (installed-based) lamps.

General Lighting provides the main illumination of an area.  In this study, we provide a market review for the year 2010 plus our forecast and analysis (2011-2015) of LED lamps used for general lighting, including interior and exterior decorative and functional lighting for residential, commercial and government areas.

For the purposes of this study, ElectroniCast Consultants includes Directional Lighting, Supplementary Lighting, Street Lighting and Architectural Lighting in the General Lighting category. 

LEDs are used in both functional and decorative light fixtures, with an advantage of energy savings. Compared to incandescent lighting, LED-based solid-state lighting (SSL) delivers visible light with reduced heat. In addition, its solid-state nature provides for greater resistance to shock, vibration, and wear, thereby significantly increasing its lifespan.

LED Level Quantified in the ElectroniCast Study               Below, are five levels (or “food chain”) pertaining to the LED marketplace.  For the purposes of this ElectroniCast study, we quantify and provide a market forecast for “Level 4”

Level 1 - The chip or die

Level 2 - The LED component (component-level bulb)

Level 3 - LED array; may include optics, heat sink and/or power supply

Level 4 - Lamp

Level 5 - Luminaire (light fixture/lamp holder)

This report provides the 2010-2015 market data by the following functions:

·         Consumption Value (US$, Million)

·         Quantity (number/units in Millions)

·         Average Selling Prices (ASP US$, each)

The value is determined by multiplying the number of units (lamps) by the average selling price (ASP) in US Dollars. The ASPs are not retail prices; the prices are based on the price of the LED lamp at the initial factory level (prior to FOB – Free On Board; therefore, no shipping expenses are included).  The value is then based on the end-use application in the Latin American region.

ElectroniCast Consultants studied the markets for LED Lamps in the following countries in the Latin American region and segmented them into two categories: “Major” and “Rest of Latin America.”  This report provides our 2010-2015 market forecast of the consumption (use) of LED Lamps in the “major countries” and “Rest of Latin America” counties as a group.
