Policymakers see the light on halogen lighting

Lighting Council Australia (LCA) has today commended the Federal Government for ‘seeing the light’ with its announcement that inefficient halogen lamps will be phased out where there is an LED equivalent available on the market.

LCA CEO Malcolm Richards said the association was very supportive of the move by Assistant Minister for Climate Change and Energy Jenny McAllister and that it represented a move forward in the right direction.

“Customers are becoming more and more aware of what light bulbs provide them both the best bang for their buck and are the most environmentally friendly. LED ticks both those boxes,” Mr Richard said.

“LCA welcomes the announcement by the Assistant Minister to phase out inefficient halogen lamps where there is an LED alternative available on the market. It’s a case of legislation keeping pace with technology.”
