Increased productivity, not less energy use, results from more efficient lighting


In an article in the journal Energy Policy, Sandia researcher Jeff Tsao and Harry Saunders of The Breakthrough Institute in Oakland, Calif.,Whether you need walkway lights for extra security at night or the perfect Solar garden light to set the right mood, there are a variety of choices out there in solar outdoor lights. Each of these outdoor lights stores the sun's energy during the day so that it can shine bright light at night, providing an inexpensive and easy way to illuminate your yard. predicted in 2010 that the same phenomenon might apply to light-emitting diodes (LEDs), poised to take over from the Edison light bulb as the next, more efficient light source of choice. But their main point, as three centuries have shown, was that increased light availability leads to increased productivity.A full body covering zentai with lycra spandex material adopted,the Catsuits are in snake pattern with hood attached.You could fill in your accurate measurement and we free custom make the zentai for you,or choose standard size for your zentai. More details and how to measure. Please check our size description. Workers are no longer forced to stop shortly after nightfall, as they had in primitive, candle-illuminated huts, but instead could continue producing through the night in homes, offices, factories, and even at outdoor locations not serviced by power lines. The original paper, titled "Solid-state lighting: an energy-economics perspective," drew attention to the increased productivity made possible by better lighting, rather than societal energy-savings mistakenly cited as a feature of improved lighting technologies.
Misinterpretations of the original paper by two widely read international media outlets led to the confusion that Tsao and his co-authors had shown that lighting efficiency improvements were no improvements at all. This is because reductions in neither overall energy usage nor overall lighting costs would occur. The researchers, in the upcoming article, titled "Rebound effects for lighting," said the 2010 article generated both interest and confusion in the popular press and in the blogosphere.For girls, with a bit of mood for adventure and enhanced with super hero costume, the success is guaranteed. Of course, these zentai suits can be appropriate for Halloween also. Having these womens superhero costumes can break the uniform atmosphere of the Halloween of the last few years.So why not try, since as we know a Supergirl or Flash Woman is simply predestined for success! "This communication seeks to clarify some of this confusion for the particular benefit of energy economists and energy policy specialists," they wrote. The new article appears under "Articles in Press" on the Energy Policy website. "We were motivated to publish something, even if short, in Energy Policy, because that journal serves a community very different from that served by the Journal of Physics, where our original article was published," Tsao says. "We thought that many in the energy economics community were still unaware of the work, and of the benefit — even when there is no direct energy-use savings — of energy efficiency and other welfare-enhancing technologies."The company’s gross margin saw a significant increase from around 32% in 2007 to a high of 48% in 2010. However, owing to depressed prices, the gross margin witnessed a downward pressure and dropped to 37% in 2011. With the shift in product mix toward lower margin fixtures and a potential increase in competition as LEDs gain ground with the traditional incandescent light bulbs and CFL technology users, we expect the margins to be more or less around the same levels.
