Lighting in European non-residential Lighting in European non-residential sector sector

• 1/3 of total electricity consumption in commercial buildings

• ~ 1 TWh/year in service sector

• Rare use of electronic ballasts

• Low understanding level of control system for lighting

• High energy-saving potential

(30-50%)


– Objectives:• to reduce energy consumption for lighting

need throughout Europe;

• to reduce polluting emission volume;

• to limit the global warming;

• To improve the quality of working conditions...

…while saving money !

A new EU program started in February A new EU program started in February 2000: GreenLight2000: GreenLight


Energy efficiency lighting can be installed:

1) where it is profitable;2) where quality of existing lighting is maintained or improved.
