Fluorescent light bulbs (including compact fluorescents) are more energy-eicient than regular bulbs because of the diferent method they use to produce light. Regular bulbs (also known as incandescent bulbs) create light by heating a filament inside the bulb; the heat makes the filament white-hot, producing the light that you see. A lot of the energy used to create the heat that lights an incandescent bulb is wasted.A fluorescent bulb, on the other hand, contains a gas that produces invisible ultraviolet light (UV) when the gas is excited by electricity. The UV light hits the white coaing inside the fluorescent bulb and the coaing changes it into light you can see. Because fluorescent bulbs don’t use heat to create light, they are far more energy-efficient than regular incandescent bulbs.At the forefront of the most eficient incandescent alternaives are LED and Fluorescent technologies. Both have advantages & technical challenge and provide signiicantly improved efficacy (lumens/watt) over incandescent lighing. Addiionally both technologies open themselves for opportuniies to add intelligence beyond just simply providing an incandescent light bulb replacement.
