In 2017, however, new US regulations have been put in place that make it difficult for CFLs to qualify for an ENERGY STAR rating. Historically, compact fluorescents (CFLs) and LEDs have been considered some of the most energy efficient light bulbs on the market, as they have a lower wattage while providing the same light output as higher wattage incandescent light bulbs. While each of these types can be found in endless shapes and sizes, they are often differentiated by their energy efficiency, as well as the quality of light that they emit. There are many different types of light bulbs on the market to fit pendant lighting, including compact fluorescent, halogen, incandescent, LED, xenon and neon. As a result, it is extremely important to think about how you will leverage your lighting choices, in order to ensure sustainability.
