Lighting remains a significant load for electric utilities representing from 8-17 percent of total electric consumption in industrialized countries according to recent estimates. However, new lighting technology using a systems approach involving the lamp, ballast, lighting fixture, energy management controls and operational parameters has the potential to substantially improve lighting efficiency and reduce total lighting energy use. In some systems, a 3-fold increase in efficiency per socket can be acchieved. Implementing effective strategies to utilize this potential and putting it into the hands of lighting energy reductions.
