We have set ourselves the target of selling 10 million energy saving light bulbs in the coming year.
You told us that you wanted to do more in the fight against climate change but wanted our help to make it easier and more affordable. So we have halved the price of our energy-efficient lightbulbs and are investing millions in re-packaging them, extending our range and promoting them.
We want to break down the barriers to being green by helping to make the green movement a real option for everyone, not just the few. We want to see green consumption become mass consumption.
Switching your light bulbs over to the energy-saving kind is one of the Energy Savings Trust’s Top Ten recommended energy saving measures. If every household changed just three bulbs, it would save enough energy to power all the street lights in the country.
And it isn’t just the planet that benefits: because they last longer and use less energy when in use, they save you money too. For every bulb you switch, you can expect to save £9 a year on your energy bill. So if you have 10 bulbs in your house, you are wasting £90 a year by not changing them.
