OFFICE LIGHTING, CAR PARKS, SHOPS, PUBLIC PLACES\u2026 SWITCH TO LED!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is the cost of replacing all my light bulbs with LEDs worth it?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Replacing incandescent light bulbs with LED bulbs can have a significant impact on your energy bill, as they consume far less energy. On average, incandescent bulbs cost about five times more to run than LED bulbs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cost of use<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

LED bulbs consume less energy (in continuous operation) than incandescent bulbs. Let’s take the example of two bulbs with similar brightness: a 60W incandescent bulb and a 12W LED bulb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are the calculations in detail:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A 60W incandescent bulb consumes 60 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity every 1,000 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A 12W LED bulb consumes 12 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity every 1,000 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2026, the average price of electricity in French-speaking Switzerland is approximately CHF 0.28 per kWh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At this price, the cost of using the incandescent bulb for 1,000 hours would be CHF 16.80.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cost of using the LED bulb for the same duration would be only CHF 3.36.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lifetime<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

LED bulbs last longer than traditional incandescent bulbs. The Department of Energy states that a 60-watt incandescent bulb has a lifespan of approximately 1,000 hours. A 12-watt LED bulb, offering similar brightness, can last approximately 25,000 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Long-term value<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

LED bulbs have a higher initial cost than incandescent bulbs. At first glance, this might suggest that incandescent lighting is more cost-effective. However, as mentioned earlier, LED bulbs have a lifespan 25 times longer and a lower running cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s start by analyzing the cost of an incandescent light bulb over 10 years:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Let’s start by analyzing the cost. A 60W light bulb costs an average of CHF 2.00 to buy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s assume you use it for 2,000 hours per year, at a rate of CHF 0.28 per kWh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over 10 years, its use would cost you CHF 40.00 in bulbs + CHF 336 = CHF 376.00 per bulb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You would be using bulbs with a lifespan of approximately 1,000 hours. That’s 20 bulbs in 10 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s now analyze the cost over 10 years of an LED bulb with similar brightness:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

A standard 12W light bulb costs an average of CHF 15.00 to buy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s assume you use it for 2,000 hours per year, at a rate of CHF 0.28 per kWh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over 10 years, its use would cost you CHF 30.00 for bulbs + CHF 67.20 = CHF 97.20 per bulb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You would still be using the original bulb, which would have a lifespan of approximately 10,000 to 15,000 hours. That’s only 2 bulbs in 20 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

THESE FIGURES CORRESPOND TO THE REPLACEMENT OF A SINGLE BULB\u2026 IMAGINE IF YOU REPLACED ALL THE BULBS IN A LARGE SURFACE SUCH AS AN UNDERGROUND GARAGE, A SHOP OR A PUBLIC PLACE!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over a period of 10 years, it has been observed that despite a lower initial purchase price for an incandescent bulb, an LED bulb offers better value for money in the long term with savings of approximately 26%.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For professional lighting (underground garages, office or shop ceiling lights), this saving can amount to up to 45% on the final electricity bill!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
