Lighting – Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow!

Did you know?

That 22% of the electrical consumption in the USA is used on lighting. A substantial amount of energy can therefore be saved by converting to LED lights. Since the primary source of energy in the USA is the burning of fossil fuel and thus generation of CO2, the environment will benefit from a reduction in the amount of CO2 emitted for every kilowatt of energy saved. Every mW-hr of electricity saved will reduce CO2 emissions by 1 ton.

Excessive CO2 emissions are a key reason for the partial destruction of the earth’s ozone layer and onset of global warming. Landfills will also benefit from the implementation of LED lighting due to the long useful life of the LED lights. One LED light can last has long as 50 conventional incandescent light bulbs. This is a true savings of waste.
