Cree recently demonstrated an LED concept luminaire operating at 200 lumens/W, which is more than twice the efficiency of the best linear fluorescent luminaires.
The prototype leverages Cree’s vertical integration with innovations in LED chips, optics, materials technology and novel system design to deliver unprecedented performance.
The 3,200-lumen concept luminaire delivered greater than 200 lumens/W at 80 CRI at thermal equilibrium while remaining within the ANSI color specification for 3000K. The innovations behind the concept luminaire will enable Cree to deliver increased performance in LED luminaire applications at a lower cost to accelerate LED adoption.
