OSRAM compact fluorescent lamps save electricity and reduce CO2. Join in!

With our compact fluorescent lamps everybody can do something to combat the greenhouse effect. OSRAM compact fluorescent lamps use up to 80% less energy than conventional light bulbs. With every single compact fluorescent lamp that you or your customers use, you can reduce CO2 emissions by up to 0.5 tonnes (during its entire lifetime)!

Taking savings to another level � with OSRAM DULUX EL LONGLIFE.

By using a OSRAM DULUX EL LONGLIFE lamp, you can make even more considerable savings on energy, costs and material as compared with a standard compact fluorescent lamp. Thus a OSRAM DULUX EL LONGLIFE with a lifetime of 15,000 hours* substitutes for three standard compact fluorescent lamps each with a lifetime of 6,000 hours*.

* Switching cycle: 90 mins on, 15 mins off

That means:

  • Lower procurement costs, since one OSRAM DULUX EL LONGLIFE costs less than 15 light bulbs
  • Lower material consumption at production
  • Lower energy consumption at production
  • Lower transport costs and thus lower emissions

  • 3.2 billion kWh corresponds to the annual output of a 500 MW power station
  • To generate 3.2 billion kWh of electricity requires 800,000 tonnes of crude oil
  • A tree absorbs approx. 20 kg of carbon dioxide a year
  • In order to absorb 1.6 million tonnes of CO2, 80 million trees are required � in words: eighty million!
