Lamps
For indoor and outdoor use
Along the life cycle of a lamp, electricity consumption in use represents the greatest environmental impact. The naBe criteria therefore focus on energy efficiency, but also on durability and low pollutant emissions. A distinction is made between lamps (or light sources) for indoor and outdoor lighting (street lighting).
Essential criteria for the procurement of lamps:
- Minimum energy efficiency requirements
- Minimum requirements for lamp service life
- Switching resistance
- Low mercury content for fluorescent lamps
- It is recommended to pay attention to the interchangeability of light sources in LED luminaires
- When procuring lamps, the Total-Costs-of-Ownership (TCO) or the costs incurred by the contracting authority in the purchase, use and disposal should be taken into account
