Today's energy efficient lights come in a range of colour temperatures and styles to complement any décor. Designed to provide the colour and warmth to match your needs, they are the perfect solution to create soft, relaxed environments or sharp, task-based lighting. You can also use efficient lights to add mood lighting in places like bedrooms, dining rooms and lounges.

It's not all about CFLs though. New generation efficient halogen lights are now widely available and they score highly when it comes to colour rendering, directional lighting and use with dimmers. Plus, because they look the same as traditional bulbs, they work well in decorative fittings such as chandeliers.

Be more environmentally friendly with efficient lights
When we use energy efficient lighting, we help create a better New Zealand. It's all to do with the affect of power generation and transmission on our environment.

Join the rest of New Zealand in reducing the home lighting load by 66% (a feat that's definitely achievable), and together we could save over 1000 Giga Watt Hours of power annually. That's the equivalent of all the power used by homes in Wellington and Kapiti every single year ¹.
