Pledge to change at least one standard incandescent light bulb to an ENERGY STAR qualified CFL, and make other changes like switching to ENERGY STAR qualified appliances and products, ensuring homes are properly sealed, and recycling inefficient second refrigerators.
Switch to CFL Bulbs and Save
ENERGY STAR qualified compact fluorescent light bulbs provide bright, warm light while using 75% less energy than standard lighting — they also generate 75% less heat and last up to 10 times longer. Replacing a 100-watt incandescent bulb with a 23-watt compact fluorescent bulb can save you up to $30 in energy costs over the life of the bulb. Learn more about ENERGY STAR lighting products.
How to Choose the Right CFL for You
CFLs are now available in a variety of shapes and sizes to meet the majority of your lighting needs. In addition, they are now more aesthetically pleasing with housings surrounding the spirals to physically mimic other types of light bulbs on the market while still providing the same energy savings of a regular CFL with the spiral exposed. Another great feature of CFLs today is that they are available in three different colors of light output depending on your personal preference: daylight, bright light and soft light.
Use the table below to become familiar with equivalent compact fluorescent light (CFL) replacement bulb wattage and light output ranges.
| Typical Incandescent Bulb | ENERGY STAR CFL Replacement Bulb | Typical Lumens (Light Output Measure) |
| 40 watt | 9 watt | > 450 lumens |
| 60 watt | 14 watt | > 700 lumens |
| 75 watt | 19 watt | > 1,100 lumens |
| 100 watt | 23 watt | > 1,600 lumens |
