Studies show that using high quality light emitting diode (LED) lights can offer significant benefits. In addition to energy savings, LED lights have been shown to last longer than incandescent and fluorescent bulbs, perform well at low temperatures, and require less maintenance. And thanks to continued innovations on the part of manufacturers, these bulbs aren’t just for flashlights and exit signs anymore. With the increase of new LED technology and unwavering emphasis on energy efficiency, these lights are being used in a variety of applications, from street lights to refrigerated cases.

Taking the Watts Out of Water - The Relationship Between Water and Energy |
|
Every drop from the faucet, drip irrigation line in the field, and hiss of steam in the factory uses water – and energy. It takes a full 19 percent of California’s electricity and 30 percent of its natural gas to deliver and heat our household water, irrigate crops, and meet other industrial and commercial needs such as wastewater treatment and restaurant services. Eighty percent of water consumption in California is used for agricultural purposes, and the rest is delivered to homes and businesses through municipal systems that use energy to pump, aerate, filtrate, and chlorinate water so that it’s healthy for human consumption and contact.
