LED lighting is very energy-saving climate organizations with PHILPS released the Clean Revolution Report

Climate group to join hands with PHILPS recently released the Clean Revolution report shows that LED road lighting can save up to 85% of energy. The report calls on governments to promote the large-scale application of LED lighting in the city, and to invest in order to take advantage of this market trend and create a large number of high-value jobs worldwide.

It is reported that the data and views of this report by the organization of climate and PHILPS jointly conducted a LightSavers called LED independent test of lighting. The pilot project lasted two and a half years, in 12 cities in New York, London, Calcutta, Sydney and Hongkong, respectively, conducted a total of 15 experiments. The results show that the LED technology is now mature enough to meet the majority of outdoor lighting applications, so as to create economic and social value for the public.

LED lighting is a very durable technology, maintenance demand is very low; LED products within 6000 hours of the failure rate is about 1%, while the same time range, the traditional lighting products failure rate of about 10%.

At present, the global LED lighting market is developing rapidly. It is estimated that by 2020, the global LED lighting market will grow by 60%. The latest report released by the international labor organization shows that the green economy can create 60 million jobs. According to statistics, 19% of the world's electricity for lighting, while the world's greenhouse gas emissions by 6% from the lighting. If doubling the global lighting efficiency, the impact on climate is equivalent to half of all greenhouse gas emissions from the EU's electricity and heat production. Like many other energy-saving technologies, energy-saving lighting will promote global prosperity. Only in the United States, for example, if the energy demand in the lighting field is reduced by 40%, the annual energy costs will be reduced by $53 billion, reducing the energy demand is equivalent to the capacity of 198 medium-sized power stations.

Mark, chief executive officer of Kenber, said: "this report clearly shows that LED technology has a wide range of applications in cities and towns around the world conditions. We call on governments to eliminate policy barriers and accelerate the transition to low-carbon lighting. "

"The overall shift to the latest energy-efficient LED lighting solutions can save a lot of energy, reduce carbon dioxide emissions, and help to improve the urban environment. "PHILPS lighting president of global affairs and government public relations Harry Verhaar said," we believe that through the promotion of lighting market transformation, PHILPS LED lighting solutions can help the construction of livable city, to the benefit of city residents and visitors.
