  1. Why Should You Upgrade CFLs to LEDs? If you own a house or are renting out in Victoria and have been paying hefty electricity bills, there may have been a very practical reason you have not upgraded your old CFLs to LEDs just yet. Under the Victorian Energy Upgrades program, the state government is helping Victorian businesses and households to cut power bills and also reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The government’s VEU rebate scheme is providing access to discounted energy-efficient LED products and if you don’t a have a solid reason, you should avail the benefits right now. Of course, you can have a concern that only years back you upgraded from incandescent globes to CFLs – why LEDs now? That’s a valid query, we will try to address in this article. For a briefer, this change is to do with two things – one, the development and innovations in lighting technology and two, the benefits of Victorian government rebate scheme.

  2. Advantages of upgrading CFLs to LEDs: By replacing CFL lights with LEDs, you can immediately start reducing your electricity bills by up to 80%. Since, LEDs consume 75% less energy than traditional light bulbs and do not produce any heat (like CFLs and incandescent do) when lit,which lead to energy loss. LED lights consume very less electricity to emit “better”brightness, leading to lesser power bills. Plus, LEDs run on cool temperature, meaning almost zero energy loss as heat. LEDs have a long lifespan LED lights, after installation require very little to no maintenance at all, this is primarily becauseLED lights have a far longer lifespan. CFL lights have a maximum of 15,000 hours lifespan whereas LEDs last up to 50,000 hours. Zero heat emission helps in reducing the risk of fire, making them safer to use.

  3. LEDs are easy on the environment As mentioned, LEDs consume very little energy in comparison to traditional lights. It’s not just this, some LEDs are made from recyclable materials, which ensure they are easier on the environment and help lower your carbon footprint. LEDs are more appealing to the eye LED lights are the latest revolution in lighting industry, which means there is more time and money being spent in ensuring performance and aesthetics of each LED light that is made. LEDs are more beautiful in design than conventional lights and come with sleeker and more appealing form factor. Advantages of VEU scheme Switch from CFLs to LEDs is imperative in Victoria because the LED product replacement is done under the VEU scheme free of cost for households and at discounted rates for commercial and industrial setups.
