DOE anticipates energy savings related to expected SSL quality improvements

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) has published the results of a US Department of Energy (DOE)-funded study intended to project the impact on planned solid-state lighting (SSL) technology innovations.

The research focused on improvements in LED lighting that could be driven by PNNL technology research initiatives. The study reveals significant energy savings attributed to coming advanced SSL products even if some of the advancements demand modest tradeoffs in energy efficiency.

The new study h attempts to gauge potential savings that will result from installation of improved SSL products. And the new research seems to be, in part, justification for technology research that PNNL ma
