Due to their round-the-clock operation and high lumen output requirements, hospitals devote a great deal of their energy usage to lighting. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, lighting can account for 44% of a hospital’s electricity bill – nearly double that of a commercial building’s. In this light, it is no surprise that hospitals in many parts of the world are updating their lighting systems to LEDs to reduce their operating costs.

Bringing 10% higher efficacy and unmatched “punch” to its extensive range of chip-on-board LEDs, Lumileds delivers even better options for designers of spotlights and downlights.
