Save energy
LED light engines use 30-60% less energy than other light sources, with no loss of light output, which represents considerable cost savings as well as major reductions of greenhouse emissions. Furthermore, LED technology allows designers to create fittings that utilise light far more efficiently, delivering light uniformly and only where it is needed, with minimal glare.
Colour performance
LED light engines provide light quality that is second to none, with a CRI value of over 70 that yields high quality colour rendering. This enables realistic colours to be seen when objects are lit at night - a big advantage for architectural and security lighting. And, importantly, colour quality is maintained right to the end of the LEDs rated life.
Long life
With 50,000 hours of life, LEDs can last up to 4 times longer than other light sources, which means reduced maintenance costs. During the life of an LED luminaire a comparable metal halide fitting would be relamped four times. Electrical gear on an LED system may need servicing as little as once during this time.
Environment
LEDs require less material to manufacture them and their extended life means far less frequent replacement. And when it finally comes to disposal, the hazardous waste considerations of mercury-free LEDs are far fewer than with other light sources. Light pollution is also greatly reduced, as the superior optics of LED fittings means light goes only where it is required. LEDs are also more controllable, with instant on switching and dimmability.
GE has many technical innovations to its name and in the field of lighting these include the first incandescent lamp, fluorescent tube and halogen lamp.
There is no company better qualified to lead the lighting industrys challenge to reduce environmental impact.
This philosophy is embodied in ecomaginationsm, GEs initiative to create a better quality of life for all the worlds citizens and create long-lasting environmental solutions through the use of technology. ecomaginationsm is at the core of many of GEs technologies and GE Lighting has made a major contribution with high efficiency products right across the range. But there is more to it than efficiency. GE aims to produce products which have the least possible environmental impact during production and also when their useful life is finished. There is no better example of these qualities than the LED conceived by GE in 1962. Efficient and exceptionally long lasting, it has no mercury content and presents a far lower risk for disposal and recycling than many other light sources.

Optical
GE LED fixtures have carefully designed optics that ensure that light only goes where it is needed. This reduces wastage and cuts down light pollution. In addition to the quality of the optics, GE also focuses on providing a wide choice of optics so that lighting designers can light many different types of application as efficiently as possible.

Managing heat
The management of heat plays an important part in the performance of a luminaire. Heat sinks inside fittings, together with outer surface areas equipped with features such as heat fins, ensure that luminaires are as heat-efficient as possible. In addition, interior layout is always carefully planned by GE engineers to minimise heat build-up.

Application
LED outdoor lighting systems from GE are designed as a long term commitment to efficiency and low maintenance. By creating products that are versatile and have a wide range of applications, GEs engineers ensure that they will deliver efficient service, wherever they are used. GE LED light sources enable the design of highly efficient optical systems that only light the desired area. The less precise control of larger, non-LED light sources often results in light spillage. Also, the extreme long life of the LED light source typically 50,000 hours - drastically reduces the time and cost of maintenance compared to other light sources.

Environmental
While the efficiency of GE LED systems is paramount, they are conceived with the complete environmental audit trail in mind, including manufacturing and disposal. The WEEE and RoHS directives place a responsibility on manufacturers to minimise the environmental impact of the construction and disposal of electrical products and among other things they address concerns about mercury entering the environment. GE LEDs contain no mercury or glass, which greatly reduces the burden of disposal or recycling.
