New Energy-Efficient Lighting Infographic by Precision-Paragon

(25/07/2012)

With all the different lighting technologies available, it can be difficult to decide which technology or mix of technologies is right for a specific project. To help people figure out the right technology to use, leading energy-efficient lighting manufacturer, Precision-Paragon [P2], has released an infographic that allows users to compare technologies from a 10,000 ft. view.

For those interested in a lighting retrofit or upgrade, the infographic is a great starting point.
“With any lighting project, the first step is to define your goals, then develop a lighting solution to help you meet those goals. Our infographic gives you a general idea of the technology that might be best for your application,” said Joe Martin, [P2] Vice President and General Manager.

The infographic provides a broad overview of four common lighting technologies: HID, Fluorescent, Induction and LED, showing the general characteristics of each technology.
“In the lighting industry, technologies are constantly changing. Companies may produce fixtures that are better or worse than those depicted in the infographic. The point is to get people talking about the different technologies, asking questions and ultimately finding the best technology for their specific application,” Martin said.

Though the energy efficient lighting infographic shows people the important factors to consider, i.e. cost, lamp life, etc., it is not meant to replace the advice of a lighting professional. Because every situation is unique, talking with a lighting pro is essential to getting the most effective technology. For this reason, [P2]’s Service Hub team is available to discuss technology options and answer any questions related to lighting retrofit and upgrade projects.

“At [P2], our mission is to help people get the greatest energy and cost savings out of their retrofit or upgrade, and the new infographic will help them with that effort. We encourage people to share it with their friends, colleagues and customers,” said Martin.

Available on the company’s website, the tool can be easily incorporated into other websites by copying and pasting the html code provided on the [P2] site. In addition, individuals can share the infographic via email as well as Facebook, Twitter and other social media sites.
