Lack of LED lighting standard industry called for a postponement household LED lamps grants

Lighting industry concerns about LED lighting national standards (CNS) is not released, the Ministry of Economic Affairs intended for household LED bulbs, and every single grant two hundred dollars, and fear of bad money drives out good money, the production of low-quality low-cost products industry to become the biggest winner. Taiwan Lighting Fixture Export Association chairman Zhang the hole Cheng yesterday led calls on Bureau of Standards, urged the Bureau of Standards to accelerate the development of LED lighting national standards footsteps.

The lighting industry who declined to be named, pointed out that the Bureau of Standards of the Ministry of Economic Affairs for the implementation of the Government's energy saving and carbon reduction policies, the drafting of the Taiwan LED lighting standards for many years, but today has not been formally implemented, the lighting industry did not send the inspection and testing opportunities.
