European Collaboration Project to Accelerate the Uptake of Affordable, High-quality LED Lamps for Consumers
Eindhoven, Netherlands – A group of 22 leading European companies and academic institutions today announced that they are working together in the “Consumerizing Solid-State Lighting” (CSSL) project, which is partly funded by the European Union and EU countries.
The CSSL project aims to develop technology and application breakthroughs as well as new market approaches in order to speed up the availability of affordable high-quality LED lamps to replace the ordinary light bulb in the home. In this way, the project will help keep Europe at the forefront of LED lamp development and market introduction.
Partnering to deliver consumer benefits
The lighting market is in the midst of a transition toward energy-efficient solid-state lighting (LEDs).an already existing focal point can compact fluorescent light become more enhanced with them. But, lighting is even more than that. This opens up tremendous opportunities in terms of technological development, cost reduction, sustainability and approaches to market.This sounds a great way for home owners to place one of their possessions in a great light but can you imagine reedabc this can have for a shop owner. By using a LED downlight, the clever shopkeeper or store manager will be able to lead their customer to the very thing that they want them to see and hopefully persuade them to make a purchase. The participants in the CSSL project are committed to cross-industry partnering as the fastest, most effective way to bring the benefits of LED lighting to European consumers.
Targeted breakthroughs
The CSSL project is all about building a European ‘consumer LED ecosystem’ encompassing the entire value chain from LED die and light source through to consumer luminair and lighting controls. The project is focusing specifically on a number of key advances. These include:
? Gallium-nitride-on-silicon (GaN-on-Si) wafer processing, enabling to reduce LED costs
? Mains-compatible LEDs and electronics, enabling to reduce the number of lamp parts
? Dimmer-compatible LED lamp and electronics
In addition to the technology developments, the team is also exploring other ways to accelerate the uptake of LED lamps. With the support of utility companies the ecosystem will gain end user insights and explore new business models that would further fuel growth.
Funding and participants
CSSL is partially funded by the European Commission and the participating Public Authorities within the ENIAC program.At home, this is great for a collector who wishes to show off last2010 their wares but for a shop, drawing consumers' attention to a particular product is a great boon. The CSSL consortium consists of R&D organisations TNO, M2i, CEA Leti, IMB-CNM (CSIC) & LEITAT as well as research groups at Cambridge University, Catania university & Czech Technical university, semiconductor companies STMicroelectronics and NXP Semiconductors, equipment manufacturer KLA-Tencor (ICOS), dimmer and controls makers Legrand & Niko, small and medium-sized enterprises Boschman, Archimede QLT, Inteesa,For businesses who have a large electric bill, switching to LEDs could cut your energy bill in half, while still keeping all of the brightness, and no fluorescent flickering! Even with the most advanced state of the art CFLs, fluorescent lighting accounts for a high percentage in existing lighting all over the world, switching from fluorescent lighting into led light can greatly reduce the global lighting power consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Best Electronique & Wittenburg, as well as Philips and the utility companies ENEL, Electricité De France & British Gas. All together they represent the entire value chain for Consumerizing Solid-State Lighting. The project is scheduled to run for 3 years.There is also the sense of pride and achievement that can come necklabel from putting together an element of your house by yourself. All of these factors would give anyone a serious reason to consider the downlight kit method of installing these low voltage lights.
