Can energy saving lamps save money? And listen to experts to help you calculate the account

From time to time, I heard complaints. Compared with ordinary lamps, the price of energy-saving lamps is so high and easy to break, even if it saves electricity, it can't save a few dollars. Is the energy-saving lamp really energy-saving and not cost-effective? The senior engineer of the Shanghai Energy Conservation Supervision Center, Tan Hongwei, gave the reporter a detailed account.

Buy it expensive and use it

At present, the energy-saving light sources commonly used in households are double-ended straight tube fluorescent lamps (commonly known as "fluorescent lamps") and compact fluorescent lamps. The luminous efficacy is 5 to 7 times that of incandescent lamps, and the life span is 8,000 to 10,000 hours, which is equivalent to incandescent lamps. 8 to 10 times.



Although the price of a single green lighting fixture is definitely higher than that of an ordinary incandescent lamp, the price difference is not very large if it is considered from the work performance. Such as a 40-watt incandescent lamp unit price of 1.5 yuan, the same brightness of 8 watt high-quality energy-saving lamps unit price of 24 yuan. However, the life of high-quality energy-saving lamps is 8,000 hours, which is 8 times that of incandescent lamps. Therefore, the actual price difference between the two is 12 yuan.


Calculating the electricity bill, the 40-watt incandescent lamp lights up for 600 hours (equivalent to the first half of the year), the electricity cost is 14.64 yuan, the 8-watt energy-saving lamp lights up 600 hours, the electricity cost is 2.93 yuan, and the energy-saving lamp is 11.71 yuan more than the incandescent lamp. That is to say, after the 8-watt energy-saving lamp is lit for more than 600 hours, the electricity cost saved can almost recover 12 yuan more than the cost of buying an incandescent lamp. The energy-saving lamp can save nearly 150 yuan in electricity costs during its 8,000 hours of life.


Long-opening, long-lived, short-lived

Energy-saving lamps are high-tech products. Both purchase and use are stressful. If used improperly, it may cause damage to the lamps in advance. In general, energy-saving lamps are most suitable for use in long-term "long light", kitchen lighting, inductive lighting in corridors and other places where switching is frequent, energy-saving lamps should not be used. In addition, when purchasing lamps, try to use brand-name energy-saving lamps that have been listed in the national certification, and the effect of saving energy and saving money will be most obvious.
