Philips Lumileds supplies LEDs for China highway project
Two tunnels have been completed in China that utilise Philips Lumileds LEDs for illumination.
A new tunnel lighting project in China is to utilise light-emitting diodes (LEDs) manufactured by Philips Lumileds in a bid to reduce energy consumption by up to 60 per cent.
Chinese tunnel developer Xi an Liming has worked with Future Lighting Solutions - a distribution partner of Philips - to furnish two new highway tunnels in the Xinkailing and Wangzhuyuan No 2 tunnels of the Liu an-to-Wuhan highway.
In total, the project has used 3,900 LUXEON Rebel LEDs from Philips Lumileds.
"Future s help in designing and optimising these tunnel fixtures was instrumental in our ability to both meet and exceed the national standards for this kind of lamp and thereby win the lighting contract for these two tunnels," said Yijing Mu, general manager of Xi an Liming.
Philips Lumileds was set up in the late 1990s and has since become one of the foremost suppliers of solid-state lighting in the world.
It manufactures and sells billions of LEDs annually and is actively involved in the development of new LED technologies and research into further improving the energy efficiency of these products.
