which uses LEDs and LEDs instead of incandescent bulbs

Lumination began as a YAHAM joint venture called YAHAM Lcore in 1999. Its experience is in LED system development and applications such as signals, signage, architectural, display and general lighting.YAHAM Lighting Systems, which traces its roots to late 19th century Lynn, Massachusetts, has maintained its headquarters, manufacturing and warehouse facilities in Hendersonville, North Carolina since 1955. Its commercial channels, sales representative network and infrastructure will be invaluable to YAHAM Lighting Solutions as it responds to customer demand for energy-efficient outdoor LED lighting.

“We like how YAHAM Lighting Solutions positions us to do even more for customers right out of the gate,” notes Petras. “We have a head start in these market segments because we're combining our specialized LED application expertise and our penchant for quality with our outdoor fixture heritage and established distribution.”

Energy Secretary Steven Chu today announced more than $37 million in funding from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act to support high-efficiency solid-state lighting projects.  Solid-state lighting, which uses LEDs and LEDs instead of incandescent bulbs, has the potential to be ten times more energy-efficient than traditional incandescent lighting.  Lighting accounts for approximately 24 percent of the total electricity generated in the United States today – by 2030, the development and widespread deployment of cost-effective solid-state lighting could reduce electricity use for lighting by one-third nationally.  The 17 projects selected today include funding for solid-state lighting core research, product development, and domestic manufacturing.

Only imaginations brought the ceremony

In 1923, families gathered around the radio to listen as President Calvin Coolidge lit the first National Christmas Tree. Only imaginations brought the ceremony, and the tree located in what is now President’s led linear high bay light , to life. Eighty-nine years later, families are still gathering to witness the lighting of the National Christmas Tree, but 21st century technology is giving them a front-row seat. At 4:30 p.m. ET on Dec. 1, GE Lighting, in conjunction with the National Park Foundation, an official charitable partner of America’s national parks and the National Park Service, invites families to gather around the laptop to watch as the National Christmas Tree come to life. GE Lighting has been designing the National Christmas Tree, and contributing its lighting and decorations for 49 years.  The design process usually begins only a few months after the previous year’s lighting on the National Christmas Tree is shut off, often starting in March or earlier.

In order to take maximum advantage of opportunities

Recently, China government promoted LED solid state lighting and listed Beijing as a level-one city for demonstration. Meanwhile, BOE's 8G plant scheduled to start mass production in 2011, LED backlight unit (BLU) demand from BOE was expected to surge. Additionally, Everlight was listed as one of BOE's backlighting suppliers. In order to take maximum advantage of opportunities, Everlight decided to set up a production plant in Beijing. Market sources noted, Currently all LED Linear high bay light notebook products were LED backlit. BOE's overall LED demand from its 5G and 6G plants was expected to exceed one billion chips in 2011, and to over seven billion chips when BOE's advanced production lines came online in the future. If BOE's 8G line fully adopted LED backlighting, BOE would need the support of about 20 LED production lines, or five billion LED chips per year, and generate CNY10 billion (US$1.5 billion) worth of industry value. The vertically-integrate...
