LED technology. The collaboration further strengthens both Philips
Hadco as a leader in sustainable LED lighting solutions and the City of
Boston as one of the greenest cities in the U.S. The conversion is
expected to save the city approximately 8.9 million kilowatt hours (KWh)
of energy each year.
Colour rendering from LED lighting
Specifying white LEDs can be far more complicated than you think
For general road lighting, Lumileds' Hechfellner
thinks streetlights need more reason and less specmanship. After all,
you will not have forgotten that the incumbent technology has a CRI of
25 max.
"Is
the objective to make cars look good, or higher energy efficiency?" he
asks. "We could see 10-15% extra energy efficiency if we went from 70
CRI to 60 CRI. We are struggling to persuade the industry." So don't
over-specify CRI if you don't need it, unless you like wasting power.
