LED luminaires for general illumination in commercial lighting applications

Ruud confirmed the information Monday night at the Mount Pleasant Village Board meeting. "This new Neighborhood Market will be a showcase for emerging technologies," he told Mount Pleasant trustees. "To be able to have a store down the street as a showcase is great for credibility for the technology and our business as a whole."

Launched in 2008, the NGL awards are geared towards recognizing and promoting excellence in the design of energy-efficient LED luminaires for general illumination in commercial lighting applications.  In the indoor category, a total of 187 products were submitted, of which only 114 products reached the judging phase.  From that pool, 53 products were recognized worthy of specification and three were honored with the distinction of “Best in Class.”

According to the company, the first SWITCH lamps were shipped to several hotel beta-sites in the United States last November. The lamps last 25,000 hours and use 80% less energy than a standard incandescent lamp which could save hospitality properties thousands in energy and maintenance replacement costs.

In addition, SWITCH is also introducing technology for a 220/240V driver. This will expand the full line of LED A-Lamps beyond U.S. borders to the international market. The 220/240V driver lamps are expected to be released in late 2012.

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...
