efficiency standards

The Congress of the United States House of Representatives voted against the repeal of the bulb energy efficiency standardsStock lighting
The White House bill 2417 ( light bulbs use optimization bill, hereinafter referred to as Bill 2417 ) although obtained a majority vote in the U.S. House of Representatives, but did not reach the repeal of the act of 2007 required 2/3 votes. 2007 signed by bill ( energy independence and security law ) regulation, 2012-2014, light output in the range of 310-2600lm general lighting will be the new energy standards limit. At present, 100W, 75W, 60W and 40W incandescent lamp in light output under the condition of constant energy consumption will be limited to not more than 72W, respectively 53W, 43W and 29W. Rise from 2012 namely, must use LED lights, such as more efficient 100W bulb.
Tuesday, the United States House of Representatives on the Republican 2417 vote, Republicans say that Zheng Fu should not be citizens should buy what type of bulb for legislation. This proposal did not get 2/3 votes, not enough to the abolition of 2007 through the use of efficient light bulbs from 2012 the legislative provisions, the LED solid state lighting supporters is a good news.
House of Representatives by 233 votes to 193 votes in support for the bill. The vote results basically follow the ratio of the number of house parties, although 10 Republicans voted against, and 5 Democrats voted for.
The new proposals and the growing green movement counter. In the United States, lighting energy consumption in total energy consumption of more than 20%. Most people will reduce lighting energy consumption as the most simple one of the ways to save energy. But due to the solid state lighting product prices higher, must reach a longer service life was enough to make up for the expensive replacement cost.Corner strobes
Energy independence and Security Act ( EISA ) promulgated by the Republican Party
Ironically, just like is, energy independence and Security Act ( EISA ) is a Republican -- President W Bush signed in 2007 by the bill, the bill requires the use of more efficient light bulb. Bill, 100W or luminous flux reaches up to 1700 lumens luminaire efficiency should be improved more than 30%.
In the next few years, luminous efficiency requirements will be gradually expanded to 75W, 60W and 40W lamp. A set of use efficiency requirements are more demanding standards in the next ten years to carry out. Energy independence and Security Act does not prohibit the use of incandescent lamp, but the energy efficiency standards only solid-state lighting products and compact fluorescent lamp can reach.
By including Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck, the conservative celebrity pressure, although in fact efficient lighting products can save large amount of energy just like, but the Republican Party is still trying to let citizens freedom of choice of lighting products right. One on the BostonHerald.com web editor working joined the opposition, and called for the adoption of new ( can use incandescent bulb bill ).
In fact, a lot of opposition in the lighting energy * * and Security Act ( EISA ) people, and not fully understood the legal details. Although in the majority of cases, it also did not mention the use of bulb type, recently" New York Times" an article on people began hoarding incandescent lamps were reported. In fact, energy independence and Security Act ( EISA ) allows including three road lamp and decorative lamp inside a variety of lamps use.
Energy independence and Security Act ( EISA ) supporters
Energy independence and Security Act ( EISA ) also have a strong supporters, they make the vote Tuesday defeat conducted a large lobby. Lighting Science Group President Jim Hawort said," lighting is a simple and easy method for reducing energy consumption. Lighting energy consumption accounted for 19% of energy consumption in the world, the United States, this ratio reached 22%; 60% public and commercial building energy consumption for lighting, 80% of Gao Da's office in the use of outdated and inefficient lighting; lighting electricity accounts for 15% of household electricity. Only 4400000000 of traditional lighting for efficient lighting, will be able to quickly save billions of dollars in the cost of energy.
Of course, the majority of supporters have certain interest. Lighting Science Group ( LSG ) will hope to become a major player in the market LED replacement lamp. In addition, the National Electrical Manufacturers Association has been lobbying to support the energy independence and Security Act ( EISA ).Photo source emits
California and Texas reaction
Whether this is the official energy independence and Security Act ( EISA ) theory, is unclear, but the United States federal states have begun to legislation -- from respective direction. California state legislation has been passed, the energy independence and Security Act ( EISA ) to the beginning of the year transition. Conversely, Texas has made it clear that allows for the continued production and sales of incandescent lamp. In July, the United States Federal passed a motion, make Texas production lighting principle in the energy independence and Security Act ( EISA ) of immunity.
