VII.1
Incandescent Lamps
We invented incandescent technology.
We know how to replace it .
From Thomas Edison’s first commercially viable light bulb to the first X-ray machines,
we’ve continued to innovate what has yet to be imagined.
GE was born from the invention of the world’s first affordable incandescent lamp.
More than a century later, our lighting business still brings light to the world, helping
to advance new technologies, that operate with more efficiency, less cost and less
environmental impact than ever before.

Since March 2009 a regulation was
adopted in all EU countries and
inefficient non-directional lamps have
been gradually phased out from the EU
market .
GE Lighting, as member of ELC
(European Lamp Companies
Federation), is fully committed to this
regulation and has a complete range
of new energy efficient products to
replace old incandescent lamps.
