What & Why

Energy Savings

LED is a highly energy-efficient lighting technology with the potential to change the future of lighting in the United States fundamentally. LEDs — especially ENERGY STAR-rated products — use at least 75% less energy and last up to 25 times longer than incandescent lighting.

The widespread use of LED lighting has enormous potential for energy savings in the United States. By 2035, most lighting installations are anticipated to use LED technology, and energy savings from LED lighting could top 569 TWh annually by 2035.

Reasons to Consider LED:

Increasingly Efficient

In the U.S. alone, the use of LED lighting could save up to 348 terawatts of energy by 2027.

90% More accessible

The LED prices have dropped more than 90% since 2008

$30B in savings

Switching to LEDs could save the economy up to $30B in the following decade in the U.S. alone.

LED Is Easier On The Eyes

LEDs are easier on the our eyes, which can help eliminate productivity loss caused by headaches from fluorescent lighting

Advanced LED lighting controls

Advanced LED lighting controls SAVE 50%+ compared to manually controlled systems

Decades of use

The potential lifespan of LEDs may reach up to several decades.

83% Cheaper

LED Lighting is 83% cheaper than incandescent.

Rebates Available In Some States

Some states offer rebates for upgrading your lighting fixtures, drastically reducing any out-of-pocket expense! Plus, you'll be reducing your organization's carbon footprint!

How LEDs are Different

 

LED lighting differs greatly from other lighting types, such as incandescent and CFL. Key differences include:

Light Source: LEDs are the size of a speck of pepper and can emit light in a range of colors. A mix of red, green, and blue LEDs is sometimes used to make white light.

Direction: LEDs emit light in a specific direction, reducing the need for reflectors and diffusers that can trap light. This feature makes LEDs more efficient for many uses, such as recessed downlights and task lighting. With other types of lighting, the light must be reflected in the desired direction, and more than half of the light may never leave the fixture.

Heat: LEDs emit very little heat. In comparison, incandescent bulbs release 90% of their energy as heat, and CFLs release about 80% of their energy as heat.

Lifetime: LED lighting products typically last much longer than other lighting types. A good quality LED bulb can last 3 to 5 times longer than a CFL and 30 times longer than an incandescent bulb.

LED Products

 

LED lighting is available in various home and industrial products, and the list grows yearly. The rapid development of LED technology has resulted in increased product availability, improved manufacturing efficiency, and lower prices. Below are some of the most common types of LED products.

Industrial and Commercial Lighting
LEDs’ high efficiency and directional nature make them ideal for many industrial uses. LEDs are increasingly common in street lights, parking garage lighting, walkway and other outdoor area lighting, refrigerated case lighting, modular lighting, and task lighting.

Under-Cabinet Lighting
Because LEDs are small and directional, they are ideal for lighting tight spaces such as countertops for cooking and reading recipes. Since there can be variation in light color and directionality, it is important to compare products to find the best fixture for your space.

Recessed Downlights
Recessed downlights are commonly used in residential kitchens, hallways, bathrooms, and in many office and commercial settings. DOE estimates more than 600 million recessed downlights are installed in U.S. homes and businesses.

LED Replacement Bulbs
With performance improvements and dropping prices, LED lamps can affordably and effectively replace 40, 60, 75, and even 100-watt incandescent bulbs. Reading the Lighting Facts Label is essential to ensure the product has the proper brightness and color for its intended use and location.
