6月9日到10日，照明行業年度盛會——“2016阿拉丁照明論壇”在全球最大照明展廣州國際照明展期間隆重舉行，阿拉丁照明網作為大會報道的官方媒體，特邀全球照明協會秘書長Bryan Douglas先生來到我們新聞直播現場，與大家共同探討照明及LED產業發展大計。

　　阿拉丁照明網：今年全球照明市場有哪些明顯的變化?這些變化給我們哪些啟示?

　　Alighting：What changes impress you most in the global lighting market this year? What are the implications of these changes?

　　Bryan Douglas：I have been impressed by the way in which the global lighting industry has responded to the opportunities and challenges presented by solid state lighting. On the one hand traditional lighting companies are adapting to the new technologies and committing investment. On the other hand I am very impressed by the way that emerging major markets in Asia, and in particular China, have responded to the changes. Ledification is truly a global phenomenon and is not confined to places like Europe or North America. Chinese manufacturers have embraced the change to LEDs and for several years now years have been the dominant force in global LED production.

　　是的，全球照明行業在應對半導體照明帶來的機遇和挑戰的方式，給我留下了深刻印象。一方面，傳統照明企業在不斷發展新技術和引進新投資;另一方面，正在興起的亞洲照明市場，尤其是中國在應對產業變化的過程，令人印象深刻。全球照明行業已經回應了固態照明的機會和挑戰。照明的LED化是一個全球性的現象，并不局限于歐洲或北美等地方。很顯然，中國的制造商在過去積極擁抱了LED的變化，而現在已經成長為推動全球LED生產的主流力量。

　　阿拉丁照明網：在您看來，未來全球照明市場的機遇在哪里?有哪些新的商業形態和技術值得我們關注?

　　Alighting：Where are the future opportunities of global lighting in your opinion? What business forms and technologies that we should pay attention to?

　　Bryan Douglas：There are huge opportunities. We are now living in this new paradigm of connected lighting. Everything that I have seen at recent lighting trade fairs confirms this paradigm shift. The future is definitely about connected lighting, The industry must embrace this concept. Those who ignore the concept will be left behind.

　　Connected lighting will be profoundly important in road lighting. Road lights and road lighting poles will provide a vital platform for sensors which will provide the information to transform cities into intelligent cities.

　　未來的LED照明市場蘊藏著巨大的機會。我們正生活在一個新的連接照明環境中，在我最近的照明交易會上也印證了照明的這一轉變。未來肯定是關于連接照明，照明行業必須擁抱這個概念和變化，那些忽視這一變化的人，未來將會被時代淘汰。

　　在道路照明中，連接照明將顯得異常重要。路燈和路燈桿作為傳感器的載體，為信息的交流和轉換，提供一個重要的平臺，將城市轉變為智慧城市。

　　阿拉丁照明網：隨著智慧城市的推進，跨界成為一種常態。在多種業態融合的過程中，照明產業如何發展?

　　Alighting：How do you think about the development of intelligent city? What lighting industry should do with its development?

　　Bryan Douglas：Cities will become cleaner, safer and better places in which to live because of connected lighting. Of course analytics and other technologies in processing the huge amounts of data made possible by connected lighting and lighting sensors will also be very important in the transformation to intelligent cities.

　　Lighting companies must embrace the new technologies and they must form alliances with companies which possess these complementary technologies. I suggest they must form alliances with other relevant technology providers if they want to play a role in this new world of intelligent cities.

　　因為連接照明，城市將成為更清潔，更安全，更好的人類生活的地方。有了連接照明和照明感應器，對智慧城市的大量數據進行分析處理和轉換成為了可能。

　　照明公司必須擁抱新技術，他們必須與擁有這些互補技術的公司結盟。我認為，如果他們想在這個智能城市的新世界中發揮作用，他們必須與其他相關技術供應商結成聯盟。

　　阿拉丁照明網：全球照明協會正在做什么以及未來有哪些計劃來推進全球照明的發展?

　　Alighting：What is the global lighting association doing and what are the plans for the future to promote the development of global lighting?

　　Bryan Douglas：In a program called VISTA 2025, the global lighting association has embarked on a program of articulating the changes likely to occur in lighting up to the year 2025. This is a significant challenge because of the profound changes we are going through. In connection with this work we are developing position papers on matters of importance to the lighting industry, such as quality of light and human centric lighting.

　　We are also working on environmental matters, on improving the world’s tariff codes to better reflect the changes in lighting technologies, and we are working with other stakeholders such as the CIE on matters of importance to the industry.

　　在一個程序稱為“Vista 2025”，全球照明協會已經在實施一個新的計算項目，通過這個項目，可以預測照明行業2025年將可能發生的事情和變化。這是一個重大的挑戰，因為照明行業無時無刻不在經歷著深刻的變化。在這項工作中，我們正在開發照明產業重要問題的立場文件，如光品質和以人為本的照明。

　　我們也在研究環境問題，對改善世界關稅代碼以更好地反映在照明技術的變化，并與其他利益相關者如CIE一起解決和確定照明行業的重要事項。

　　阿拉丁照明網：通過本次論壇，您有什么新的想法希望跟業界分享?

　　Alighting：Do you have any new ideas that you want to share with the industry?

　　Bryan Douglas：Embrace the changes occurring in the industry, and form alliances with other technology providers.

　　擁抱照明產業正在發生的變化，與其他技術供應商共同協作發展。
