Description

This two-part series discusses solid-state lighting and its envisioned use and benefits in U.S. buildings. This article covers solid state lighting's current and emerging applications. In several specific lighting applications, light emitting diode (LED) products are at least as efficient as traditional technologies. Also, LEDs have a longer life span, require less maintenance, are vibration-resistant, contain no mercury, and do not emit infrared (IR) or ultraviolet (UV) light. Incandescent bulbs convert 8% of their power to visible light, while fluorescents convert 21% and LEDs convert 15% - 25%, with projections of 50% in the coming years. (1) With their benefits over conventional lamp technologies, LEDs are being engineered to be superior solutions in several applications.
