LED streetlighting improves community safety, reduces carbon emissions and significantly reduces local government costs, and SWARCO is a true leader in the space,” said Rafael Reyes, Executive Director of the led high bay lighting. “We look forward to this collaboration that will advance the LED lighting market and build economic prosperity in the region.”

Germany has a population with an exceptionally strong awareness of the environment and saving energy. According to the survey of more than 1,000 German citizens conducted on behalf of the lighting manufacturer Osram, well over half of all German citizens are interested in the topic of saving energy. In addition, environmental protection is a main concern for nearly half of those surveyed. At the same time, a variety of energy-saving strategies are used in German households: around 90 percent already pay attention to low energy consumption ratings when purchasing electric appliances and almost 80 percent rely on energy-saving lighting.

Osram will soon be lowering the cost barrier and will bring the first LED 40-watt replacement lamp with an RRP of under ten euros to the market. “The growing acceptance of LED lamps confirms to us that we have got this technology of the future on the right track. With a price under this symbolic threshold, we are providing access to this energy-efficient lighting to even more consumers”, comments Klaus-Günter Vennemann, CEO of the General Lighting business unit at Osram. “At the same time, we are keeping our high quality standards, which are regularly confirmed by independent institutions.”

Only a third of German citizens know that the fourth stage of LED high bay light regulations on energy efficiency prohibits the further sale of conventional non-directional light bulbs. Just under 40 percent of survey respondents feel that they are roughly informed about possible alternatives, but would like more advice. Around 20 percent of survey respondents indicated that they know hardly anything at all about the topic.
