Low Energy Bulbs
It Must Be Green | Energy Saving | Low Energy Bulbs
The government has proposed, as an illustrative schedule for the phase out of inefficient lamps:
By JAN 2008: cease replacing stock of all inefficient (General Lighting Service, GLS) A-Shaped incandescent lamps of energy rating higher than 100W (predominantly 150W lamps.)
By JAN 2009: cease selling all inefficient GLS A-shaped lamps of energy rating higher than 60W (predominantly 150W lamps, 100W lamps, plus some 75W lamps)
By JAN 2010: cease selling all inefficient GLS A-shaped lamps of energy rating higher than 40W (predominantly 60W lamps)
By 31 DEC 2011: cease selling all remaining inefficient GLS A-shaped lamps and 60W “candle” and “golf ball” lamps. (predominantly 40W and 25W A-shaped GLS bulbs, and 60W candles and golf balls)
| 3 = 15 watts | 5 = 20 watts | 7 = 30 watts | 9 = 40 watts | 11-12 = 60 watts | 15-16 = 75 watts | 20 = 100 watts |
