The replacement markets also some of the early deployment problems associated with the hold the most promise for the greatest energy savings and introduction of compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs)

... The lighting systems design and proddue to lattice mismatch in LEDs should increase reliability, uct decision makers are different for each sector, and decision yield, and efficiency. Improving LED light output and color is makers in each sector have a different level of knowledge also important because most LED lamps currently available do and experience with SSL technology.

... Binning is used when potential to lower costs of solid-state lighting products. the yield is low and manufacturing processes do not have sufficient quality controls in place to ensure a consistent and uniform product.

... This may significantly limit the impact of ENERGY STAR® overall in improving lighting efficiency in these sectors and impede widespread deployment of SSL technologies. Other programs, such as the Northeast Energy Efficiency Partnership DesignLightsTM Consortium (DLC)

... The committee selected consumers in retail stores. These same scaling factors were these two usage scenarios for two reasons: first, because they used for years 2015 and 2020, resulting in the following are representative of average daily usages in the residential weighting factors for cool and warm LEDs: lifetime factor and commercial sectors, and second, the results are found of 0.5, efficacy factor of 0.51, and a markup factor for price to be very sensitive to the number of hours of use.

Second, the benefits of SSL in within the SSL value chain making key market connections retrofit applications and in new lighting forms need to be by providing practitioners hands-on opportunities to learn well articulated and accurately assessed, based on rigorous about energy efficient lighting technologies and lighting and valid testing and in-field verification.
