factories that are more energy efficient than traditional incandescent


The BluGlass technology allows the production of GaN-based semiconductor wafers considerably cheaper than existing processes. GaN-based wafers are used in high performance LED general lighting devices for use in homes, offices and factories that are more energy efficient than traditional incandescent or fluorescent bulbs and tubes.CIPS Executives visited led high bay light pilot manufacturing plant in late December before the distribution deal was signed. BluGlass CEO Giles Bourne said BluGlass was progressing well on its long-stated plan to commercialize the GaN technology, which was developed by scientists at Sydney’s Macquarie University.

BluGlass will sell their semiconductor manufacturing equipment to the Japanese market through Itochu. They are also hoping to negotiate strategic collaborations with Japanese corporations so that they can further develop uses for their technology.Energy efficient lighting pioneer BluGlass Ltd and Itochu Plastics Inc. (CIPS), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Japanese trading company Itochu Corp. have signed a sales and distribution agreement. That means CIPS has won the sole rights to market BluGlass’s gallium nitride (GaN)-based LED manufacturing technology in Japan.

The challenging combination of ambitious carbon reduction commitments

We continue to experience strong economic headwinds on a global scale, which affect growth going forward. Our Accelerate! program is helping to mitigate some of these pressures, and we have full confidence in our ability to continue improving the operational and financial performance of the company. Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust expect to achieve savings in the region of ￡21,000 after retrofitting LED lighting in several areas of the building, and payback in some areas is projected to take less than 2 years. The retrofit programme, delivered by advanced LED specialists Light Planet, has also reduced energy consumption by 68% and significantly lowered maintenance demands. The challenging combination of ambitious carbon reduction commitments and increasingly restricted budgets faced by the healthcare sector makes the appeal of energy-efficient lighting solutions stronger than ever. Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust identified LEDs as “a technology th...

The acquisition expands Johnson Controls lighting services beyond the school

Patriot Taxiway Industries, Inc stepped into aerospace and aeropart manufacturing a little over 20 months ago in Omro, Wisconsin, then transferred to a superior manufacturing plant in Lomira, Wisconsin. Patriot Taxiway president and vetrepreneur, Steven A. Smits, who served in the U.S. Air Force and is still enlisted in the Air National Guard, had a lot weighing on the fulfillment of their first contract. The team comprised of more than 70% veterans, produced and delivered all 2,000 remotely controlled lighting systems on schedule to their international destinations. Smits credited their manufacturing efficiency and the quality of the LED products they provide to the veterans and other team members. The acquisition expands Johnson Controls lighting services beyond the school, healthcare and government markets it currently serves as NES provides lighting upgrade and maintenance solutions largely for retail, commercial, and industrial customers. Johnson Controls also will provide effecti...
