The Energy Efficient Solution

Fluorescent

ULTRA – a family of energy efficient products for all of your lighting needs.

Whether you need to replace a lamp, retrofit a lamp and ballast, or create a completely new lamp, ballast and fixture solution for your new construction, GE ULTRA is the answer. Not only did we make ULTRA energy efficient, but we coupled them with two other GE technologies, Starcoat and Ecolux. Starcoat provides the best color rendering and highest lumen maintenance Ecolux exceeds the EPA’s stringent Toxic Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP).

How much energy can I save by replacing my current T8 with an F32T8/WM?
Example: Class A office space

• *500,000 square feet in downtown center with 5000 (3-lamp) fixtures with a typical ballast, at *$.08 KWH, and *4500 operating hours
• Strategy: Relamp T8 fixtures with Extra Life (XL) T8/WM lamps
• Calculation: 5000 X 3 lamps X $.072 (4500 hours at $.08)
• $10,800 energy saved annually and $60,000 energy saved over lamp life at 25,000 hours

The GE F32 Watt-Miser is the easiest way to decrease the largest piece of your lighting costs…ENERGY!

The GE T8 ULTRA F28T8 Ultramax system is a highly efficient T8 lamp and ballast system utilizing the new GE 28W T8 lamp and the GE Ultramax ballast product family. The 28W Ultramax system provides up to 44% savings in energy consumption.

Compact Fluorscent

GE Compact Fluorescent lamps bring all of the advantages of fluorescent lighting to incandescent sockets and feature dramatic energy cost savings up to 77% vs. incandescent lamps of comparable light output. With a variety of wattages, shapes and sizes, these lamps are the perfect alternatives to incandescent bulbs.

• Self Ballasted-Spirals provide up to 75% savings in energy costs and fit in standard incandescent sockets
• Plug In CFL’s provide a variety of energy saving alternatives and long life solutions to customers

Halogen

Only GE can offer this many energy saving alternatives because of our exclusive technology platforms. GE’s exclusive thin film design offers dramatic energy savings. Most of the wattage used by standard lamps generates invisible infrared light energy. This is wasted electricity. GE engineers and scientists developed an exclusive infrared reflective coating. Pow-IR-Film, for the inner filament tube that actually uses this wasted energy to help heat the filament and produce more visible, useful light. Now, the GE engineers and scientists have extended this technology even further with Silver Coating technology. GE’s silver coating process produces an additional 12% efficiency gain in the lamps, which allows GE lighting to drive additional energy savings, lumens and life which produces even more operating savings for your bottom line.
