There is considerable focus on technology manufacturing locations and the value in funding innovation when upstream products are not manufactured within a domestic economy. Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are such an upstream product. Here, we evaluate the value added along the supply chain of luminaires, a product that utilizes LEDs, using bottom-up cost modelling. Coupling the results with analysis of shipping cost and time, this analysis examines how advances in LEDs can incentivize LED luminaire adoption leading to the potential for significant domestic manufacturing effects even if the upstream products are produced in other economies.

研究报告：LED 照明——一家全球性企业

当上游产品不在国内经济中制造时，人们相当关注技术制造地点和资助创新的价值。发光二极管 (LED) 就是这样的上游产品。在这里，我们使用自下而上的成本模型评估了灯具（一种利用 LED 的产品）供应链的附加值。将结果与运输成本和时间的分析结合起来，该分析研究了 LED 的进步如何激励 LED 灯具的采用，从而即使上游产品是在其他经济体生产的，也可能对国内制造产生重大影响。
