Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to compare the two most efficient lighting technologies available today for general and indoor applications. LED lighting with its unmatched energy efficacy and flexibility and fluorescent lighting with its affordability and matured technology will be tested in two case studies with the aid of a lighting simulation tool Relux, along with a feasibility study to form a conclusive comparison between fluorescent and LED lighting
