With my eMonitor kw usage measurements in hand its pretty easy to see the difference in energy used between any of my blend LED, Compact Flourescent and dated Incandescent. The sooner LED costs come down the better, its the easy low hanging fruit of energy consumption.
EERE article... Energy Secretary Steven Chu today announced nearly $15 million to support eight new research and development projects that will accelerate the development and deployment of high-efficiency solid-state lighting technologies like LEDs and OLEDs. Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) have the potential to be ten times more energy-efficient than conventional incandescent lighting and can last up to 25 times as long. The projects selected today are located in four states across the country and are focused on advancing core R&D goals, developing new products, and expanding domestic manufacturing capacity to help the U.S. remain competitive in this growing technology market.
