Lighting for the home and outdoors - energy savers

Compact fluorescent light bulbs can replace the incandescent light bulbs in most light fixtures in your home, and they are now widely available. Compact fluorescent lights use one-fourth the amount of electricity that incandescent lamps use, and they last seven times longer. Another reason to get rid of incandescent lights is that they give off heat, increasing the need for cooling in hot climates. Because compact fluorescents use less electricity, they reduce carbon emissions, which is good for the environment. For a detailed analysis of the lights in your house to see which ones should be replaced, see Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory's homeenergysaver.lbl.gov.

Torchieres are a fashionable and inexpensive means of lighting a home, but they are large energy wasters. Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has developed a torchiere that uses compact fluorescent light bulbs to significantly cut energy use. These are now commercially available.

For outdoor lighting, consider combining energy-efficient light bulbs with motion sensors that only turn on the lights when people are present. This approach provides convenience and security while greatly reducing energy use
