Having successfully raised £5 million of venture capital to fund the pay-as-you-save scheme, Light Planet is offering businesses LED lighting solutions worth up to £50,000, giving them the power to reduce their energy bills and carbon footprint without having to produce upfront investment or commit to loan schemes.
As LED technology has matured and the movement towards energy efficiency has intensified, the impressive benefits that LED lighting can deliver are being demonstrated on a wide scale. In addition to the energy and maintenance savings that LEDs bring to almost all kinds of buildings, they offer unique advantages in a number of sectors that range from enhancing patient wellbeing by mimicking daylight in hospitals to protecting precious artworks in galleries.
Despite these wide ranging and significant benefits, it is often difficult to secure upfront investment – particularly for retrofit projects – and this problem has been compounded by the current economic climate. Rather than expecting organisations to bear the brunt of investment, Light Planet will simply recoup 80% of the financial savings achieved as a result of installing this energy efficient technology.
Simon Leggett, Managing Director of Light Planet, commented: “At Light Planet we have complete faith in the potential of LED solutions to deliver both significant energy and monetary savings. Our new finance initiative will give more businesses and organisations access to the many benefits of the technology and encourage increased adoption of energy efficiency measures.”

the way traffic signals are being converted to LEDs
The agency is converting lane-use signals at the Bay Bridge and the Harbor and Fort McHenry tunnels to LED-type signals and is beginning to design a new LED-based lighting system to replace the 8,680 fluorescent tubes in the Fort McHenry Tunnel.
Next year, the State Highway Administration will begin its first LED streetlight project along U.S. 50 on Kent Island. Agency spokesman David Buck said that as the technology continues to improve and costs drop, LED conversion projects will be incorporated into the budget, much in the way traffic signals are being converted to LEDs.
It's not just governments making the switch. Two years ago, the National Aquarium converted its landmark 350-foot wave sign from neon to LEDs. The result was a deeper shade of blue and a pile of green — about a 70 percent reduction in electricity costs, aquarium officials said.
Lately, a research team from Taiwan's National Defense University has been utilizing nanocarbon materials to develop lightbulbs and tubes that are more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly than currently available products.

who had camped on the lawn for nearly two months
Existing growth technologies that produce large-area sapphire crystals are incapable of generating the thickness required for demanding defense applications. Rubicon’s new technological platform will grow panels approximately two inches thick, which can be cut into multiple windows of varying thickness to meet the needs of the industry. The platform developed through the led high bay lighting project is distinct from Rubicon’s highly regarded ES2 crystal growth technology, which will remain the platform for Rubicon’s C-plane sapphire used in the LED industry and R-plane sapphire for Silicon-on-Sapphire RFIC applications.
The company attributed the record monthly high to many positive factors including additional orders from customers for new products, increasing demand from LED backlighting modules, increasing shipments of LCD TVs and tablet PCs from Taiwan-based EMS (electronics manufacturing services) providers, increasing shipments of Chinese TV makers, and increasing penetration of LED bulbs in Taiwan due to major 3C (computer, communication, and consumer electronics) chain-stores promotions etc.
When the park surrounding Los LED high bay light reopened after eight months of repair work, sustainability and energy conservation were among a variety of articulated criteria for its restoration. City Hall Park was cordoned off by chain-link fence last year after police cleared hundreds of Occupy L.A. demonstrators who had camped on the lawn for nearly two months.
“We were presented with a choice — Reinvest in a park that is greener, smarter and more sustainable,” proclaimed Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa at the official reopening ceremony in July.The nearly $1 million in renovations included a smart irrigation installation, water retention schemes, turf reduction, replanting with water-stingy native vegetation, and investing in “energy-efficient LED lighting,” said the mayor.

its LED technology is to be in the lead of worldwide lighting industry
Toyoda Gosei has undergone a hard time in the first half of 2011, but its revenue firmed up till second half, to 4th quarter was fully restored. And yet its Q1 revenue of 2012 also keeps the very successful performance just like Q4 last year, even the company increase profit forecast for Q2.
The LED department of Toyoda Gosei had hard time when Q3 of 2011 as well. Until the new LED product line which Saga factory lead in goes into MP and the demands of Tabled PC backlighting with LED potted elements increased, Q4 revenue recovered remarkably. Besides, the revenue of this department is greatest within 7 quarters. Toyoda prospects that revenue of LED department will up to 55 billion yen in 2012.
Backlight package is still the leading products of Toyoda Gosei's LED dep. up to now. But according to the company’s outlook for 2020, its LED technology is to be in the lead of worldwide lighting industry before then, marking Toyoda Gosei will focus on the development of LED product.
What's more, in this June, the company announced that its high brightness LED grain, which is 3 times brighter than common grain, could take place of mercury vapor lamps. It will be a breakthrough in LED lighting technology with successful mass production.

quality LED solution for their fixtures
light pole distributors and a commercial fixture vendor, exemplifies the benefits and business growth NORImark partners consistently experience. Prior to joining the NORImark program Light Poles Plus only offered HID lamps due to the difficulty of finding a reliable and quality LED solution for their fixtures.
NORImark program, the distributor is able to make a comprehensive range of LED luminaires available to their customers, resulting in increased sales and industry relevancy. Since joining the program, LightPolesPlus has strategically collaborated with Noribachi on more than seven different projects. The NORImark alliance has not only increased LightPolesPlus’ fixture sales, but it also gives them a competitive edge in the LED market by creating additional product development opportunities through Noribachi’s premium, U.S. manufactured, solid-state lighting solutions.
“Joining NORImark has been a huge advantage for our company. We were getting frequent inquiries about LED area lights, but didn’t have a reliable solution to add to our product line. We didn’t want to use low-quality imported LED fixtures because we didn’t trust them to work over the long run. Noribachi was a perfect fit– not only are they U.S. made like our commercial light poles, but their adaptability into the fixtures we already stock made it very easy for us to have a worry free, high quality solution at a value-creating price,” says Pat R., Sales Executive at LightPolesPlus.
Noribachi engineers a unique, scalable modular light engine that is able to integrate with any existing industrial fixture, even luminaires intended for HID, fluorescent or induction lighting. Noribachi’s unique manufacturing model allows Noribachi to offer these solutions at extremely competitive pricing and lead times as rapid as 24 hours, while strategic vendor relations gain Noribachi access to the highest quality chips available commercially and world class engineering resources.

We have introduced a unique production process quality management system
The report was designed to assist airports as they decide if and when to install LED runway and taxiway lights. According to Bullough, “LED runway and taxiway lighting systems can save airports time and money. The largest area for savings by airports was in terms of reduced maintenance requirements, followed by lower energy use. LED airfield lighting uses much less energy than incandescent, but airfield electrical systems are optimized for incandescent lamps, not LEDs. Even more energy can be saved if electrical systems are designed with the reduced loads of LEDs in mind.”
The Baltic Crystal company announces that operations are under way at its new synthetic monocrystalline sapphire plant, whose investment total is USD 15 million. According to volume planned, Baltic Crystal is a mid-level crystal producer, supplying material for light-emitting diode-makers in Southeast Asia.
During the initial stage of Baltic Crystal operations, the plant’s end-product will be 4" and 6" (in diameter) cylindrical crystal ingots. Long-term plans also include producing as-cut wafers. The plant’s average production capacity could reach around 30 tons of crystals per year, turnover - USD 13 million.
We have introduced a unique production process quality management system, which considerably increases the output of crystals suitable for industrial production and guarantees clients constant volumes of high quality production. Moreover, a high level of automation of our production technologies helps us to anticipate how many crystals would be of good quality before their growing process finishes, so it means we can satisfy any volumes of supplies. We believe that we are competitive newcomers on the world’s market of sapphire producers,” emphasizes Andrey Mikhaylov, CEO of Baltic Crystal.
