It is estimated that the total consumption of electricity for lighting social power than about 20%, in 2014, China's total electricity consumption 55,233 kwh, scaling down the lighting electricity consumption reached 1.1 trillion kwh. Office of the Executive Director of the Asia-Pacific Regional Environment Programme card Wei · Zahedi (Kaveh Zahedi) Prior to an interview, said the promotion of efficient lighting, for the country dependent on imported fuel for power generation is important, help to reduce power consumption, fog haze generation and carbon emissions, lower electricity bills, thereby reducing the thermal power station construction.
It is understood that each 1 degree savings (kWh) of electricity, accordingly saving 0.4 kg of standard coal, while the toner dust emissions 0.272 kg, 0.997 kg of carbon dioxide. Compared with ordinary incandescent, LED Bulbs 80% energy saving. In 2013 the lighting power consumption (629.4 billion kWh), for example, if the entire replaced with LED lights. So one year, can save 125.8 billion kWh, corresponding savings of about 50 million tons of coal, emissions of about 34.2 million tons and 100 million tons of carbon dioxide carbon dust.
According to the plan eliminated incandescent table, starting October 1, 2012, 100 watts and above ordinary incandescent lighting has banned the import and sale; from October 1, 2014, to prohibit the import and sale of 60 watts and above ordinary incandescent lighting ; October 1, 2015 to September 30, 2016 for the mid-term evaluation period; from October 1, 2016 banned the import and sale of 15 watts and above ordinary incandescent lighting, or, as the mid-term evaluation results to adjust.
Analysis, LED lights and more energy efficient than energy-saving lamps and more environmentally friendly, energy-efficient LED if gained popularity in China, is expected to reduce lighting power consumption than half. The LED current penetration rate in China is not enough, in order to reduce the potential for LED haze is still much to contribute.
