New lighting technologies including more efficient sources and smart systems and controls offer the potential to further reduce global electricity use for lighting by 50%. The SSLC Platform is actively working to develop information and analysis to transform lighting markets, improving both the energy efficiency and quality of our illuminated spaces.
The SSLC Platform member governments bring together top researchers and experts from around the world to jointly address challenges in the rapidly evolving lighting market. The activities undertaken by the SSLC Platform are complementary and supportive of the work of governments, international standardisation bodies, and the research & development being conducted by industry and academia. Through this work, the SSLC Platform is working to accelerate the global transition to solid state lighting and controls.
Today, the SSL Annex has published the Nucleus Laboratory Comparison report – Part 2 of the 2023 Interlaboratory Comparison (IC 2023). IC 2023 is investigating the degree of agreement in the measurements of temporal light modulation
Today, the Smart Sustainability in Lighting and Controls (SSLC) Platform published a comprehensive review of the scientific knowledge acquired over the last ten years on the effects of solid state lighting (SSL) on human health.
On 14th May, the SSLC Platform organised an international lighting seminar at Senate House, University of College London. The slides and video recordings from this seminar are now available on our website.
This Nucleus Laboratory Comparison report – Part 2 is part of the 2023 Interlaboratory Comparison (IC 2023). IC 2023 is investigating the degree of agreement in the measurements of temporal light modulation (TLM) quantities, in particular, short-term flicker indicator (PstLM), and stroboscopic effect visibility measure (SVM).
Abstract: The International Energy Agency (IEA) 4E SSL Annex has conducted an Interlaboratory Comparison (IC 2023) of the measurement of temporal light modulation (TLM) of solid-state lighting (SSL) products. Designed to meet proficiency test requirements, IC
Temporal Light Artifacts (TLAs) are undesired visual perceptual effects, caused by Temporal Light Modulations (TLMs), which commonly exist in lighting systems, especially LED lighting systems. Accurate measurement of TLM and evaluation of TLA metrics, specifically the stroboscopic visibility measure (SVM) and the short-term flicker indicator (PstLM), are required by certain product safety regulations with limit values specified.
