At present, energy and environmental issues are increasingly attracting attention from the international community. The phasing out of incandescent lamps and the promotion of energy-saving lamps have become one of the important measures for energy conservation and emission reduction. Many countries have introduced policies to formulate energy-saving policies or standards for energy-saving lamps to ensure the energy efficiency of energy-saving lamps, and prohibit products that do not meet the minimum requirements from being sold in the domestic market. For example, in order to encourage consumers and businesses to replace incandescent lamps with energy-saving compact fluorescent lamps and continue to promote energy-saving plans, the United States introduced the CFLs-4.0 version of the Compact Fluorescent Energy Star Code on March 7, 2008 to replace 2004. CFLs-3.0 version that took effect on January 1st. The European Union has started the implementation of Regulation No. 244/2009/EC on the eco-design of compact fluorescent lamps in phases starting from September 1, 2009.
Since China is a major producer of compact fluorescent lamps in the world, the United States and Europe are major export markets. The promulgation of these regulations will have a major impact on the export of fluorescent lamps in China. Since energy-saving lamp projects in different countries have their own product access standards or specifications, it is very urgent to understand and track the various policies of lighting products in other countries in the world, especially the lighting of the US “Energy Starâ€. Relevant directive policies and certification standards for product certification.
This article will focus on the differences between the current US Energy Star compact fluorescent lamp applicable specification CFLs-4.0 version and the replaced CFLs-3.0 version, and study and compare the energy efficiency and performance indicators of the current compact fluorescent lamp standard in China. The requirements on the packaging are similar to those of the current US Energy Star compact fluorescent lamp CFLs-4.0.
First, the difference between the US Energy Star CFL-4.0 version and the CFL-3.0 version
The US Energy Star compact fluorescent lamp is available in CFLs-4.0 and March 7, 2008 to replace the CFLs-3.0 version that took effect on January 1, 2004. The new CFL-4.0 version is improved over the CFL-3.0 version both in terms of product coverage and energy efficiency specifications (see Table 1).
