only trace amounts of heat unlike the halogen bulbs they replace

Lighting accounts for 22% of the United States' energy use and up to 60% of the power used in commercial buildings. By switching to Lighting Science Group's long-lasting LED bulbs, each upgraded Villa led linear high bay light store will see a significant reduction in energy usage, in addition to saving money on maintenance and cooling costs, as the company's bulbs have an expected lifespan of 50,000 hours and emit only trace amounts of heat unlike the halogen bulbs they replace.

"By advancing the science behind LED technology, Lighting Science Group's products are a shining example of the innovation and possibility that arise when a commitment to quality fuses with formidable environmental stewardship—they are completely recyclable, extremely long-lasting and will significantly reduce businesses' lighting energy bills," said Jim Haworth, chairman and chief executive officer of Lighting Science Group. "Villa is now moving in right direction and other businesses can easily follow in their footsteps by installing our LED lighting products."

We have evaluated LED street lights for five years and determined exactly what we would need from an LED solution to be able to make a 100 percent conversion cost justified. Only one fixture and company met our requirements,” noted David Ferguson, Welland Manager, Traffic, Parking, and Bylaw Operations.  “We are excited to be moving ahead with the led high bay light and the Energy Solutions program that makes it worry-free for a city like Welland, with lower than average utility rates, to immediately begin realizing significant energy cost and maintenance savings. We believe that with Welland leading the way under the Energy Solutions program and the ALLED? SL4, switching to high-quality LED street lighting can now be a ‘no-brainer’ for any municipality.”
