Metrology for Solid State Lighting
Annotation in Czech
Solid-State Lighting (SSL) has the potential to revolutionise the efficiency, appearance and quality of lighting as we know it. SSL is evaluated as the most efficient lighting technology; it is predicted to be typically twice as energy efficient as fluorescent lamps and ten times more efficient than incandescent lamps, although current products are still in their early stages. As the world electricity consumption for lighting is one fifth of the global grand total, considerable reduction of energy consumption is obtained when replacing conventional lighting products by SSL technology. However, both professional users and consumers have so far been reluctant to embrace solid-state lighting, often due to unjustifiable or simply false claims about SSL product performance, partially relating to poor metrology.

Project results evaluation
This project supported the large scale implementation and application of energy saving SSL through the development, validation and dissemination of adequate metrology for the unambitious and reliable characterization of solid state lighting products, including parameters based fair-trade.
