Innovation Organic Light-Emitting Diodes or OLEDs represent a paradigm shift in general purpose lighting. The innovations created by the OLED100.eu project will lead to a new kind of lighting source that is both efficient and inexpensive to produce.
Societal OLED Lighting will provide the highest level of energy-efficient lighting accessible to people all over the world.
European Dimension OLED100.eu is the project that seeks to bring the highest level of cost-competitive and environmentally-responsible manufacturing to European industry helping to maintain its leadership in this field.
OLED Lighting can help save the Planet!
Today, over 20% of all the electric power produced on earth is used for lighting. The energy used to supply lighting produces greenhouse gases equal to 70% of the emissions from all the world's passenger cars.
OLED lighting is at least 5 times more efficient than conventional incandescent lighting. Widespread adoption of OLED lighting could actually result in a decrease in greenhouse gas emissions. Combined with sensors and ICT to implement 'smart-lighting', OLED lighting can further reduce energy consumption and deliver the highest quality of light
PRESS RELEASE: EU project offering bright lights for bright future The partnership forged between leading European companies will tackle OLED (organic light-emitting diode) lighting technology. The project's aim is to improve the efficiency, lifetime and size of the light-emitting diodes.
