Many countries in the world will rise to the legal height of green lighting

On June 2009, President Obama and U.S. energy secretary, Zhu Diwen, announced a new standard of lighting efficiency in the magnificent hall of the white house. "Now, I know that efficient incandescent lamp may look attractive, but it changed this simple action with great potential," said Obama, "by the way, we will start from the White House, Secretary Zhu Diwen has begun to check our lights, we will need to know which light bulb replaced energy-saving bulb. "

Zhu Diwen, the two time to win the Nobel prize, is expected from 2012 (the new regulations will come into effect) to the year 2042, the new standard will enable consumers to save electricity costs $4 billion per year. In fact, the U.S. Congress has passed a law in 2007, the energy independence and security lighting device, authorized the phasing out of low efficiency (such as incandescent lamps), more specifically, from 2012 to 2014, general lighting all flux between 3ro a 2600lm device must be more than 30% energy-saving incandescent bulbs at present. This efficiency standard began to take effect on the loow incandescent bulb in January 2012 and began to take effect on the 40W incandescent bulb in January 2014. By 2020, regulations on the second level effect, require all general-purpose lighting device luminous efficiency reached 451 W (approximately and compact fluorescent lamps at the same), however, some products will not be subject to this restriction, including floodlights, three incandescent lamp, incandescent lamp, lamp holders color etc..

Many other countries in the world pay more and more attention to the green lighting, are making regulations to reduce the number of allowable wattage lamp. Australia became the first announced completely prohibit the use of incandescent state, the regulations went into effect in 2010, the country's environment minister Malcolm Turnbull (Malcolm Tumbull) said, by prohibiting the use of incandescent lamp, Australia two annual reduction of carbon dioxide emissions of 4 million T. In early 2005, Brazil and Venezuela began phasing out the incandescent lamp, then Argentina also joined the team, Russia and the EU is gradually stop using incandescent lamps, Canada in 2012 plans to limit the use of incandescent lamp.

Toshiba Co recently announced it would stop production in the past 120 years has produced more than 4 billion incandescent lamps. According to the "Mis - Asia" magazine and the TreehuggeLcom website statistics, Toshiba Co last year produced 7 million incandescent and compact fluorescent lamps, 14 million. The company decided to focus on more energy-efficient lighting products, including the ratio of lights.
