Demand for Lighting Stagnates During Second Quarter of 2010

NEMA’s Lighting Systems Index (LSI) dipped 0.3% on a quarter-to-quarter basis during the second quarter of 2010.

On a year-over-year basis, the index registered a 5.3%gain versus 2Q 2009.

However, since that quarter marked the lowest reading ever recorded for the LSI, this rate of year-over-year growth indicates that lighting equipment demand remains at a very low level.

When broken down by the underlying product mix, shipments of miniature lamps, large lamps, and fluorescent ballasts expanded on a year-over-year basis while fixtures and emergency lighting systems posted sizable declines.
