ENERGY STAR® Lighting

Changing your light bulbs and fixtures is an
easy, low-cost way to improve your home’s energy
efficiency, reduce your monthly bills and help
the environment. When changing out your bulbs,
make the change to ENERGY STAR®.
Replacing a standard, 75-watt incandescent
bulb with a comparable ENERGY STAR®-qualified,
26-watt compact fluorescent light (CFL) or
replacing a 100-watt standard incandescent
bulb with a comparable 32-watt CFL can both
save you at least $30 in energy costs over the
life of the bulb. Bulbs come in all shapes,
sizes and styles to fit most indoor and outdoor
lamps and fixtures. ENERGY STAR®-labeled
lighting fixtures are also available in many
styles and colors to fit your budget and home
décor.
To help you save from the very start, we have
partnered with area retailers so you'll get a
reduced price on ENERGY STAR®-qualified lighting
products. You also are invited to visit the
ENERGY STAR® Lights Catalog online
from the comfort of your own home. As a WMECO
customer, you can purchase a variety of products
at reduced prices, which many are not available
anywhere else but the catalog.
We also invite you to do your part in
protecting the environment and our future, and
ask that you Take the Pledge.
If every household in the United States replaced one light bulb with
an ENERGY STAR®-qualified compact fluorescent
light bulb, it would prevent enough pollution to
equal removing one million cars from the road.
