Lighting Solutions Cut Power Usage

Filipino-owned Eco Lighting Solutions has offered lighting solutions that promise to reduce electricity consumption by as 66 percent with the use of the energy-efficient HyMOES-HGD green lighting technology.February 11, 2013, 6:33pm

Rommel Lacap, head of business development, said at the product launch that the HyMOES-HGD green lighting is a technology of Taiwan’s EcoLumina.

HyMOES-HGD promises to curb electricity consumption by delivering comparable levels of illumination using less wattage thus resulting in huge power cost savings.

“This is good news for the Philippines, which electricity cost has been found to be among the highest in the world,” Lacap said.

A study released last August by International Energy Consultants ranked the country ninth in a survey of 44 territories.

The challenge of increasing costs has pushed the lighting industry and its end-users toward the direction of reducing costs and going green.

The HyMOES-HGD technology applies patented electronics in purpose-built assemblies to maximize the output of commonly available High Gas Discharge (HGD) bulbs.

HyMOES-HGD lights have been observed to produce similar levels of illumination at one-third of regularly used wattage, cutting electricity consumption significantly and contributing to energy conservation.

Already, a number of companies in the Philippines have begun switching to EcoLumina’sHyMOES-HGD lights with impressive results. The Crown Regency Hotel and Tower in Cebu has deployed EcoLumina’s Haiperion street lights, in keeping with their resolve to go green and keep energy-efficient.

The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf chain meanwhile has started using the Ecrown lights for their warehouse.

“Reducing cost and increasing the quality of lighting in our warehouses is a critical priority, allowing us to continously provide the best products and services to our customers and to efficiently cater to our rapidly expanding business,” said Walden Chu, President of Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf Philippines.

“After careful evaluation of several alternatives, we settled onEcoLumina’sHyMOES-HGD products due their reliability, ease of maintenance, and high quality lux and lumens,” he said.

EcoLumina’sHyMOES-HGD lights have likewise proven to be cost-effective alternatives in commercial, industrial and public settings across the Asia-Pacific.

At Guam’s Outrigger Resort, EcoLumina’s 250-watt Wualightflood lights have replaced the previously installed 1000-watt conventional fixtures, and now provide comparable illumination for nighttime beachfront activities.

In Batam, Indonesia, 35-watt versions of the Wualight also replaced higher-wattage products in billboard installations, offering the same brightness at less electricity cost.

In Taipei’s National Tax Administration office, EcoLumina’s 150-watt Ecrown high bay lights replaced 450-watt metal halide lights. Even with the decrease in wattage, illumination was improved from 150 to 680 lux (the unit of measuring illumination per unit area) resulting in 66% savings in electricity costs.

All EcoLumina products are certified by UL, CE, EMC, FCC and TISI; and are compliant with ROHAS standards. EcoLumina received the Light Fair Innovation award from 2010 to 2012, as well as the Taiwan Excellence Award this year, in recognition of its work on eco-friendly, cost-reducing lighting technology.
