Lately, Four U.S. Department of Energy Solar Decathlon 2011 teams have announced to rely on Lighting Science Group's lighting solutions for their solar home prototypes competing in final testing and judgment this fall.
The four teams are Parsons The New School for Design and Stevens Institute of Technology, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Old Dominion University and Hampton University, and Middlebury College .
According to the Parsons The New School for Design and Stevens Institute of Technology team, "The nature of the U.S. Department of Energy's Solar Decathlon competition and our partnership with Habitat for Humanity of Washington, D.C. charges the Empowerhouse design team to deliver the right amount of high quality lighting at the best value to a homebuilder and homeowner. It's reassuring to know that Lighting Science Group is an active participant in the Department of Energy's Lighting Facts program, and that Lighting Science Group provides a wide range of solid state lighting products for retrofit and new construction. Lighting Science Group products are a natural fit for Empowerhouse."
These findings aren't isolated—independent tests show that the lumen (light) output of these LED bulbs is unrivaled—outperforming comparable products by 25-30%. In addition, the bulbs are more energy efficient than equivalent CFLs and contain no mercury, are "instant on", are completely recyclable, and offer outstanding light quality.
