December 31st, 1879 -
a day of monumental significance to mankind. The day Thomas Alva Edison
invented the electrical bulb which has since then held a glorious history as
the only reliable source of artificial light. But its glory days are coming to
an end and rightly so. We have to let go of the inefficient incandescent lights
and switch over to more energy efficient lights. Energy inefficient lights mean
more power consumption which means more amount of coal being burnt and by
default more carbon emissions into the environment. To break this vicious cycle,
innovating and adopting new energy
efficient lighting systems is necessary.
The benefits of energy efficient lighting are many – it
reduces the demand on power systems, it consumes less electricity but reflects
more light, it cuts down electricity bills considerably, it has long life, it
is eco-friendly, etc. They use 80% less energy than traditional lights to
produce the same amount of light, significantly emit less carbon dioxide into
the air which is the main cause for climate change. Traditional lighting waste
90% of energy consumed in the form of heat radiation, use only 10% to produce
light. Of course emery efficient lighting cost more but lasts very long.
Energy efficient lightens are florescent
lights and LED. Florescent lights are very expensive, but highly emery
efficient, use 80% less energy than incandescent lights, last 4 -10 longer.
They are ideal for living room and kitchen. They produce less heat , so keep
the room cool. They come in two types – CFL and florescent tubes. CFL’s come in
different shapes, sizes and colors. They come in cool white for bathroom
lighting, white for living room, etc.
LED’s comes in sheets and strips , cost high, last 50 times more than
traditional lights, but one drawback is they have low light output.
Energy efficient lighting companies are facing up to the challenges
of innovating and creating new technology that provides ideal lighting
solutions to residential, commercial and industrial applications. They have R
and D team to maintain, produce, develop efficient lighting designs that have
lasting life, top quality and reduce carbon footprint. Energy efficient lighting supplier company also make special hazardous
lighting solutions as per specifications for oil refineries, etc.
Commercial lighting products services have enormous range in designs and
applications - from stylish architectural lighting to functional lighting in
factory and warehouse to attractive and appealing lighting fixtures for homes,
hotels and parks. They can light up any place – office, school, retail,
restaurant, hospital, car parks, conference rooms, etc. Commercial lighting
products include LED down lights, fire rated down lights, high bays, flat
panels, bulkheads, wall lights, track and spotlights, bollards, flood lights,
recess wall and ground lights, lanterns, etc. Ontario commercial lighting products include miniature lamps, area
lighting, industrial lighting, hazardous lighting, special purpose lighting –
lighting solutions for every place and purpose is available.
