A Whiter LED Light Technique

White LEDs show promise as a brighter, longer-lasting and more energy-efficient light source than conventional lighting, such as incandescent and fluorescent lights, which they may replace in the future. But scientists have had difficulty producing white LEDs that are suitable for practical use. Existing technologies produce tinted shades of white light, require complex components, and become unstable over time.


Researchers have developed a new, simpler white LED that shows promise as a more efficient and stable source of pure white light for improved illumination of homes and offices. (Credit: The American Chemical Society)

White-light-emitting single molecules are promising materials for use in a new generation of displays and light sources because they offer the possibility of simple fabrication with perfect color reproducibility and stability. To realize white-light emission at the molecular scale, thereby eliminating the detrimental concentration- or environment-dependent energy transfer problem in conventional fluorescent or phosphorescent systems, energy transfer between a larger band-gap donor and a smaller band-gap acceptor must be fundamentally blocked.

Orange + Blue = White

A new, simpler white LED that is the first to achieve stable white light emissions using a single molecule. Their specially engineered molecule combines two light-emitting materials, one orange and one blue, which together produce white light over the entire visible range. In laboratory studies, the scientists showed that light production from an LED using the new molecule was highly efficient and had excellent color stability and reproducibility, features that make it a practical white light source.

EPD: Environmental Product Declaration overview


An EPD is a standardized (ISO 14025/TR) and LCA based tool to communicate the environmental performance of a product or system, and is applicable worldwide for all interested companies and organizations.

A declaration is based on a Life Cycle Assessment. It includes information about the environmental impacts associated with a product or service, such as raw material acquisition, energy use and efficiency, content of materials and chemical substances, emissions to air, soil and water and waste generation. It also includes product and company information.

Certified EPDs are open for all products and services. There is no evaluation of the environmental information since no predetermined environmental performance levels are set. Instead it builds on well-structured and quantitative data certified by an independent third part

An Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) presents quantified environmental data for products or systems based on information from a LCA conducted according to the ISO-standards for LCA. EPD is voluntarily developed information and the purpose is to provide quality-assured and comparable information regarding environmental performance of products.

The information presented in this section is based on the framework developed by the Swedish Environmental Management Council.

This system is the most internationally recognized of its kind. Certified EPDs can be found and downloaded from the web site link above.

Documents for EPD Calculation

Two documents control how the calculations and data collection behind an EPD should be conducted and what information the EPD must contain;

Requirements for the EPD system (MSR) The MSR contains general requirements for all EPDs


Product specific requirements (PSR) The PSR contains more detailed requirements for each product group.

EPDs are:

Objective, due to the requirement that scientifically accepted and valid methods are used for life cycle assessment (LCA)

Non-selective and neutral, due to the absence of valuations and predetermined environmental performance levels that must be met

Flexible, since the contents of an EPD can be amended as necessary and as required by the company/organisation after due external review and verification


Using EPD Certifications

For those using the information, EPDs can be used as a source information for factual-based and comparable environmental information about the environmental performance of products and services along the supply chain and for end-products. Specific attributes of EPDs are:

Comparable, since the information in the declarations is collected and calculated based on common harmonized calculation rules.

Credible, due to the requirements for inspection, review, approval and follow-up by an independent verifier.

Continuously up-dated, through the requirements concerning routines for documentation and follow-up procedures


ISO 14025:2006

ISO 14025:2006 establishes the principles and specifies the procedures for developing Type III environmental declaration programmes and Type III environmental declarations. It specifically establishes the use of the ISO 14040 series of standards in the development of Type III environmental declaration programmes and Type III environmental declarations.

ISO 14025:2006 establishes principles for the use of environmental information, in addition to those given in ISO 14020:2000

Type III environmental declarations as described in ISO 14025:2006 are primarily intended for use in business-to-business communication, but their use in business-to-consumer communication under certain conditions is not precluded.

Will LED Lights Become Plastic Waste?

I appreciate many of the benefits of LED lights.  They ARE smaller.  They ARE less toxic.  They DO use less electricity. 

But, they are also potential contributors to the plastic proliferation plaguing our world -- and our oceans.  Manufacturacturers can nip the potential problem in the bud by designing effective "take-back" programs from the beginning of the industry.    Here' why:


This is serious...because much of the world depends on ocean life for food. Because we depend on the plankton and phytoplankton to replenish our oxygen supply -- yes, even far inland!

And we are the ONLY people who can solve the problem. What solutions can you provide?

Richard Karney, Energy Star Program Manager for Solid State Lighting for the DOE, issued a memo to Energy Star Stakeholders to "address a disconcerting trend the Department is seeing in promotional materials of LED products."

Certification Mark
The confusion, deliberate or otherwise, stems from the use of the Certification Mark and the Partnership logo.

The familiar Certification Mark should be used only in conjunction with products that have received Energy Star qualification.

Meanwhile, the Energy Star Partnership logo is designed to communicate a partner's commitment to energy efficiency and to the environment and is allowed in general publications such as stationery, annual reports, and general company-related websites, says Karney. "The Partnership logo should not be used in connection with any product or component," he says. "The Certification Mark is used for qualified products only."

Partnership logo
"While Partners may use the Energy Star Partnership logo in a wide range of uses, it is not allowed to suggest, imply, or denote that a product has earned the Energy Star label," adds Karney.

The Energy Star logos are being used by certain companies to imply that their integral LED lamp products (a.k.a. replacement LED lamps) are qualified, but this cannot be the case since the Integral LED Lamp Criteria is not yet final.

Karney says that violations in the use of the Energy Star logos confuse the market and jeopardize the integrity of the Energy Star brand. Failure to use the Energy Star mark appropriately could result in the termination of an organization's partnership with the Energy Star program.

Instructions on the correct use of logos can be found at www.energystar.gov/logos,

LED City Initiative Saves Welland Energy and Maintenance Costs

Welland has joined the LED City® initiative, an international program that promotes the deployment of energy-efficient LED (light-emitting diode) lighting. The city has converted many of its lighting applications to LEDs, including streetlights and traffic signals, and has additional projects underway. Welland has also amended its municipal standards to facilitate LED lighting for all future streetlight installations.
 
Street and Pedestrian Lights
Welland has installed 50 LED streetlights along the revitalized area of Fitch Street and is formalizing plans for the installation of 50 additional street and pedestrian lights. The city’s growing use of LEDs is targeted to help decrease the CAN$550,000 per year cost of operating its streetlights. The city plans to eventually retrofit all streetlights with LEDs, which could yield a savings of $253,980 per year.
 
“The City of Welland is committed to high-quality LED lighting that reduces energy and maintenance costs,” said Mayor Damian Goulbourne. “Welland has been immersed in the testing of LED street lighting and aspires to become a green community, improving life for our residents. We look forward to promoting the benefits of our installations and sharing our experiences within the LED City program, helping to build a global municipal community committed to energy-efficient lighting.”
 
“We welcome Welland into the LED City community. Welland city officials have carefully evaluated LED lighting options and are responsibly deploying LED lighting to provide better light while reducing energy and maintenance costs,” said Deb Lovig, Cree’s LED City program manager. “Welland is joining the LED lighting revolution and taking a leadership role in helping other cities learn the benefits of LED lighting in their own communities.”
 
Welland has considerable experience with LED lighting:
  • In 2005, the city converted all of its incandescent traffic signals to LEDs, resulting in a 66 percent reduction in power consumption.
  • In 2007, Welland installed 50 LED streetlights along Fitch Street – showing notable improvements on a street that was named one of the top 20 worst roads in Ontario in 2005.
  • In January 2008, Toronto’s greenTbiz organization administered a public-perception survey of LEDs in Welland. In the results, 73 percent of all respondents preferred the new LED streetlights.
The responses listed energy savings, cost savings, brighter light, whiter color and decreased glare as some of the reasons for this preference.
 
Welland city staff has specifically recommended that the city convert more of its lights to LEDs, citing the benefits of LED technology improvements. The city plans to convert its downtown decorative pedestrian lighting to LED as part of the city’s downtown revitalization project. The 50 LED streetlights to be installed in Welland are based on the K56-EAR LED Series made by King Luminaire, and contain LED light engines from Welland-based CRS Electronics. The light engines use the performance-leading Cree XLamp® LED.
 
About LED City
The LED City is an expanding community of government and industry parties working to evaluate deploy and promote LED lighting technology across the full range of municipal infrastructure to:
 
* Save energy
* Protect the environment
* Reduce maintenance costs
* Provide better light quality for improved visibility and safety.
 
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, 22 percent of electricity used in the U.S. powers lighting. In a world with soaring energy prices based on the availability and control of fossil fuels, and with growing concern about sustainability of the environment, a revolution in lighting is long overdue.
