Lumen and lumens per watt are two key metrics commonly used in the lighting industry to quantify performance of light sources. Lumen: The luminous flux accounts for the sensitivity of the eye by weighting the radiant power at each wavelength with the human eye response function.
Flux () = 683
V d (lm)
Lumens per watt: Luminous efficacy of a light source is the total luminous flux emitted by the lamp divided by the total lamp power (electrical) input.
Efficacy = / W (lm/W)
Incandescent
Filament heating produces light
Only 5% of the total energy input is converted to light and the rest is heat Very inefficient
Efficacy
Generally around 15 lm/W
Color
CRI = 95+ CCT = 2500K 3000K
Halogen
A halogen lamp contains an inert gas and a small amount of halogen. Efficacy
PAR and MR Lamps (line or low voltage)
10 to 25 lm/W
Color
CRI 95+ CCT Typically 3000K
Fluorescent
A fluorescent lamp is a low-intensity gas-discharge lamp that uses electricity to excite mercury vapor to produce ultraviolet (UV) radiation that causes a phosphor to fluoresce and produce light.
Linear fluorescent lamps (LFL) and compact fluorescent lamps (CFL) are popular choices for conserving energy. About 20% to 30% of the total energy input is converted to light.
Efficacy:
25 to 60 lm/W
Color
CRI = 82 typical CCT = 2700K, 3000K, 3500K, 4100K, 5000K
Life

Frequent on-off switching can reduce life significantly Dimming is possible but can reduce life

MYTH: High efficacy light sources always save more energy than low efficacy light sources.
Spatial light not reaching the application area is wasted light (energy) Temporal light beyond the required time is wasted light (energy)

Environmental considerations
Mercury
An essential component of many energy-efficient light bulbs. Throwing these lamps into the garbage, which ultimately end up in landfills, can pollute the environment.

Health Effects
Mercury exposure at high levels can harm the brain, heart, kidneys, lungs, and immune system of people of all ages.

Lamp Disposal
Programs that promote energy-efficient technologies must also consider proper disposal programs.

Several studies have demonstrated the benefits of mesopic street lighting Observers perceptions of visibility, safety, brightness and color rendering are more positive with mesopically tuned lighting. A 30% reduction in power is possible while maintaining visual performance.

Outdoor Street and Area Lighting
LED streetlights to take over downtown Ann Arbor
www.treehugger.com/files/2008/0 7/led-streetlights-anchoragealaska-16000.php
17 Oct. 2007 Ann Arbor plans to become the first U.S. city to convert 100 percent of its downtown streetlights to LED technology, with the installation of more than 1,000 LED fixtures.
OSRAM Opto Semiconductors today announced that its Golden DRAGON LEDs are lighting up a major thoroughfare of Jing Jiang City in the Jiangsu province of China. The 180W prototype LED streetlights were installed by Jiangsu Hua Jing Photoelectronics for replacing traditional 250W HID lamps.

Selecting a product for an application can be challenging.
Performance varies significantly

Final thoughts
It is not about the technology. it is about the product and the application.
Within the same technology the product performance varies significantly Same product in different applications performs differently
