Based on a continuing influx of fresh funds, Taiwan is expected to keep its lead in the global rush toward the LED Linear high bay light market in the coming years.
According to Semiconductor Equipment and Materials International (SEMI), the total investment in the Taiwanese LED industry will top US$600 million in 2010, the largest amount in the world.
Some heavyweight electronic firms such as the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC), AU Optronics, and Chimei Innolux Corp. are steping into the LED sector.
TSMC is scheduled to complete the NT$5.5 billion first-phase engineering work for its LED R&D and manufacturing center by year-end and to begin mass production in Q1 of 2011, possibly with technology licensed by Philips.
It plans to create own-brand LED lighting sources and led high bay light engines on vertically integrated production lines which will also handle epitaxy production, packaging, and module making.
