The Benefit of using Green energy Lighting
Why are we excited about lighting? Lighting accounts for 19% of the world electricity consumption. Thats a massive amount and a vast opening to make the world cleaner and improve our savings Whats more, the beauty of switching to energy efficient is that we can make cuts today. In terms of climate change mitigation, that is the main win of all.
Green is good, and right now, green energy light bulbs are all the rage. With the frightening phase-out of old style incandescent light bulbs in many industrial countries, population are faced with picking between a handful of energy saving forms of lighting – compact fluorescents (CFL) and light emitting diodes (LED)
With the present power capacity, South Africa is in dire strait. The country is busy trying to re-establish existing power stations, and Eskom expenditure plan over the next number of years required to keep the country on course is extraordinary.
Theres a enormous pressure to construct the power capacity. The truth is we will never be able to meet the demand over the next 10 years. So. On the other side of the coin, main users need to reduce their utilization by introducing new systems that will reduce the consumption of kW and thats were Voltex come in. There are vast opportunity within the country power crisis and the usage of energy saving bulbs has become important.
Not only has the power crisis affected the lighting sector, but the financial metldown too.
The general drop off in lighting across the world has been in area of 30-35 over the last two years.
Six or seven year ago Voltex was the first lighting company to aim at energy services,sooner before the deficiency of power capacity became an concern in South Africa. We targeted it from a strategic point of view a lot earlier than it happened. That means that when you’re pursuing energy services projects, its not economy related. If theres an recognized company thats already using green energy lighting and you can offer them an appealing pay back, which we do, then we are no reliant on new building construction taking place.
South Africa has no other alternative then to prioritize all energy programs.
It is clear that Voltex will without doubt continue to play a major role inintroducing all the new system to the industry modern advances and assured its postion of leader for years to come. We are based on sound planning and strategy building, and making sure that is reviewed.
