A global switch to efficient lighting systems would trim the world’s electricity bill by nearly one-tenth.
That is the conclusion of a study from the International Energy Agency (IEA), which it says is the first global survey of lighting uses and costs.
The carbon dioxide emissions saved by such a switch would, it concludes, dwarf cuts so far achieved by adopting wind and solar power.
And so fellow electricians, this is the next big thing and my guess is, the one true (forgive the pun) light at the end of the tunnel.
With the updated “part L” of the building regulations, place emphasis on energy saving and effeciencies, the massive savings offered by changing lighting in the home and office to new LED lighting technologies could pave the way to more installations and more profit.
We are introducing a new course on energy effeciency in buildings soon………..watch this space and web site !
