LED lighting represents one of the most successful energy efficiency technologies ever deployed, saving hundreds of billions of kilowatt-hours annually.
Dramatic Efficiency Gains
LED bulbs convert approximately 90% of their energy into light, compared to just 10% for incandescent bulbs. A 10-watt LED produces the same light as a 60-watt incandescent.
Longevity and Reduced Waste
Quality LED bulbs last 25,000-50,000 hours—25-50 times longer than incandescent bulbs. A single LED can last over 20 years of typical use.
Smart Lighting Integration
Connected LED systems in commercial buildings achieve additional 30-50% savings by ensuring lights are only on when and where needed.
Global Impact
The IEA estimates LED adoption will reduce global electricity demand for lighting by 50% by 2030.
Cost Competitiveness
LED prices have fallen 97% since 2010. A typical household switching to LEDs saves $100-200 annually.
