DOE Report Compares Life-Cycle Energy Consumption of LED Lamps with Incumbent Lighting Technologies

The discussion about LEDs as an energy and environmental cure-all has led to some skepticism about whether LEDs are truly big energy-savers and green when one considers the total lifecycle energy and environmental cost of the product, including manufacturing and transportation. To its credit, DOE took this seriously enough to commission a study. The first [...]
