Summary: | 碩士 === 國立中央大學 === 高階主管企管碩士班 === 102 === Many governments from different countries in the world have listed the LED lighting industry as an important industry which is worth developing due to LED lighting products with energy saving, environmental protection and other good features and made relevant policies to assist the development in the LED lighting industry since there were the increase of environmental awareness and the threat of the energy crisis in recent years. In contrast, the Taiwan government obviously lacks of relevant measures to assist the LED lighting industry and there have been a huge amount of firms in the global market because of the industry with low entry barriers. Accordingly, if there is no good policy which can help our domestic firms to compete with foreign firms, our firms will face a tough industrial environment which isn’t beneficial to exist in the LED lighting industry for them.
Fortunately, many researches and studies have paid a lot of attention on the development of the LED lighting industry in Taiwan. However, these works seldom focus on the impact of the industrial policies made by the government on the development of the LED lighting industry. It's a pity because understanding the policies how to affect the LED lighting industry is a reasonable way to provide our government some suggestions of making and implementing the relevant policies. Hence, the main purpose of this paper is exploring the impact of government policies on the LED lighting industry. In order to discuss and analyze the relevant industrial policies which come from different countries whether to be applicable to the development of Taiwan's LED lighting industry, we adopt the following methods. Firstly, we use the Structure-Conduct-Performance model to understand the characteristics of the LED lighting industry in Taiwan. Next, we collect and summary the relevant industrial policies which is made from different countries. Lastly, we do practice-based research by interviewing with the relevant experts and scholars of the LED lighting industry.
Finally, we find that the main reason why the Taiwan government has not made aggressive policies about the LED lighting industry is that he questioned how much energy the LED lighting products can save. And the major finding of this paper shows that the LED lighting products can undoubtedly reduce our reliance on nuclear power. Thus, developing the LED lighting industry can not only protect our environment and save energy but also prevent the life-threatening from nuclear power, so it is truly worthy to make some decisions to assist its development for Taiwan government, even everyone on the earth. With regard to the most appropriate policy for Taiwan, it is to subsidy the end-users in order to enhance the willingness of consumers in using the LED lighting products.
