Aug 23, 2021 · Earlier this year, the UK Government announced plans to end the sale of halogen lightbulbs from October 2021, as part of a range of energy efficiency improvements that could help lower bills and save carbon. LEDs – or light emitting diodes – are more energy efficient that traditional halogen bulbs.
Aug 16, 2022 · The new rules are being applied from the 1st of October 2021, and the lighting manufacturers need to indicate either by icons or text concerning the following features: Energy label: The light sources energy consumption in kWh per 1000h; Wattage: the on-mode power for the light source in W

Government puts forward proposals to improve lighting efficiency to lower energy bills.
Households and businesses across Great Britain could cut their energy use and save money on bills by having some of the most efficient lighting in the world under new government proposals being announced today (Tuesday 10 January).
The new proposals will ensure that lighting in domestic and non-domestic buildings in England, Scotland and Wales meets minimum energy performance standards that are higher than regulations currently in place in either the US or the EU.
Introducing higher standards for lighting products will see only the most energy efficient light bulbs, such as ones powered by low energy-use LEDs, available in shops, making it easier for consumers to replace old bulbs with ones that use less energy while still providing the same levels of lighting performance.
With new bulbs being cheaper to run, replacing a household’s halogen bulbs with LEDs consumers can expect savings of around £2,000 to £3,000 over the lifetime of the bulbs, depending on the size of the home.
Business and Energy Minister Lord Callanan said:
•Read and respond to the consultation on minimum energy performance standards for lighting
•the proposed minimum energy performance standards for lighting will apply across Great Britain. EU regulations will continue to be in force in Northern Ireland under the terms of the Northern Ireland Protocol
•further advice on the government’s energy saving campaign can be found at the It All Adds Up page
•thanks to government support, the number of homes with an energy efficiency rating of C or above is at 46% and rising, up from just 14% in 2010
•the majority of government support schemes target those on low income and vulnerable households in the worse performing homes, including the Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund, Home Upgrade Grant and Local Authority Delivery scheme. The government is also improving energy efficiency in public buildings through the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme
•wider energy advice and more information on government funding schemes is available at the Help For Households site
In line with this, two new lighting regulations which aim to continue the work of improving energy efficiency in the market and cut carbon emissions came into force on the 1st of September 2021 in the EU, with one combined regulation for the UK implemented on 1st October 2021.
The most energy efficient GU10 lamp on the list is the Philips 2.4 watt, which is still somehow a 50 watt equivalent. Producing an impressive 380 lumens, it has an efficacy of 158 lumens per watt, putting it into the B classification.
