In comparison with the previous sodium lights on the bridge

The Wanganui District Council embarked on a trial of different led linear high bay light sources as an alternative to conventional lighting technology for Wanganui City Bridge. The council was looking for an energy efficient solution that would improve illumination. Evolve NZ Ltd provided the District Council with a solution using GE’s 80W R150 LED lamps. The fittings have the backing of a local supplier in New Zealand, and the support of GE Lighting.

In comparison with the previous sodium lights on the bridge, the GE LED lights deliver a 52 per cent power saving. The new luminaries direct the light to where it is needed while reducing the glare from the fitting to less than 5 per cent. There is no wasted upward light leakage from the new fittings.

Mr. John Birks, General Manager of Evolve NZ Ltd said: “The white LED light makes for a more modern and vibrant atmosphere in the night space, a space where it is easier to see the real colours of life. We are expecting that this type of lighting will bring more people out to enjoy the city where we live.”

Councillor Ray Stevens, Chair of the Infrastructure and Property Committee of Wanganui District Council added: “There are clearly a range of potential benefits and savings for the public. The public will notice that the new led high bay light fittings create a ‘white light’ rather than an ‘orange glow’ from the sodium lights which were previously installed.”

The specialty crop industry plays an enormously important part in American agriculture

The USDA Specialty Crops Research Initiative Award will include $2.44 million from the USDA and an equal amount of in-kind contributions of equipment and services from industry partners. The project is titled "Developing LED Linear high bay light Technology and Practices for Sustainable Specialty-Crop Production." Merrigan pointed out that” The specialty crop industry plays an enormously important part in American agriculture and is valued at approximately $50 billion every year. These projects will be key to providing specialty crop producers with the information and tools they need to successfully grow, process, and market safe and high-quality products." In the process of the project, Mitchell will test led high bay light on high-wire tomatoes. He believes that using LED lights on the sides of plants will increase photosynthesis and flowering, improving yield. Roberto Lopez, an assistant professor of horticulture, will work with about 20 species of bedding pla...

We expect global sales to be about 60 percent of YAHAM going forward

Rice has served customers, built partnerships and done deals around the world for more than 20 years.He will be responsible for all non-U.S. markets with particular emphasis on high-growth markets such as China, India, the Middle East and Brazil where he will accelerate LED Linear high bay light efforts to meet customer needs with GE’s leading technology and services. In many of these markets, this includes GE’s “company to country” growth strategy in which GE works directly with governments to meet local needs. According to GE Chairman and CEO Jeff Immelt, “We expect global sales to be about 60 percent of GE going forward. Our global growth has expanded by about 15 percent a year for most of the past decade and we expect it to continue in the future,” Rice will oversee 12 integrated local organizations that will include business development, commercial teams, finance, led high bay light controllership and legal. This will include China, India, Southeast Asia, Latin/South America,...

automation solutions for the semiconductor industry

Taiwan semiconductor and panel equipment maker Gallant Precision Machining (GPM), reported November revenues of led high bay light , which was of NT$319 million in October. GPM's revenues for the first 11 months of 2010 increased 57.4% from a year earlier to total NT$2.96 billion. The company estimated its equipment for panels, solar energy products and semiconductor would account for 40%, 25% and 25%, respectively, of 2010 revenues. GPM mainly produced back-end automation solutions for the semiconductor industry, and supplied equipment for the FPD and LED industries . Also, the company made equipments for the production of solar cells. The company estimated the revenues would grow 20-30% in 2011, not include the revenues from the semiconductor business sales. At present, the company had transferred its semiconductor business to LED Linear high bay light , its wholly-owned subsidiary in China specializing in semiconductor manufacturing equipment.
