The advancement of technology with light-emitting diodes (LEDs, its acronym in English) has enabled the development of individual LEDs, high power, with luminous flux close to the compact fluorescent bulbs. The Electricity Journal Modern, in its August edition, published a paper describing the results of a project to develop new lamps and light sources based on LED, emphasizing the importance of design and providing a source with variable color temperature combined with high quality color reproduction.
The successful implementation of lighting solid state, such as LEDs, will provide environmental benefits and economic significance. In view of the accelerated schedule of the Department of Energy of the United States, recent estimates suggest that solid state devices can replace general lighting sources such as incandescent and fluorescent bulbs by 2025, reducing energy consumption for lighting by 29% and saving 3.5 quadrillion BTUs (British Thermal Unit). The article also discusses the sources of white light LED-based, concluded that a combination of high efficiency LEDs with high quality lighting and design of new fixtures and lamps. Thus, is being prepared the way for the integration of new technology in general lighting.
