Cree Announces Industry’s Most Energy-Efficient Neutral and Warm Lighting-Class LEDs

The warm white (3000 K) XLamp XP-G provides up to 114 lumens and 109 lumens per watt at 350 mA. Driven at 1.0 A, the XP-G warm-white produces up to 285 lumens at 84 lumens per watt, which is four times the light output than the highest available XLamp XR-E warm-white LED at equal efficacy.

The neutral-white (4000 K) XLamp XP-G provides up to 139 lumens and 132 lumens per watt at 350 mA. Driven at 1.5 A, the XP-G neutral-white produces up to 463 lumens, which is four times the light output of the XLamp XR-E cool-white LED at equal efficacy.

“We are excited to be working with the newest Cree XP-G LEDs,” said Bob Fugerer, president, Sunovia Energy Technologies, Inc. “The extremely high efficacy levels are enabling us to offer our Aimed Optics™ luminaires in a neutral color while maintaining the same pace-setting mounting-height-to-pole-spacing ratio and fitted target efficiency that we previously achieved with cool-white color temperatures.”

“Cree is once again setting industry-leading efficacy levels in warm and neutral white,” said Paul Thieken, Cree, director of marketing, LED Components. “These new XP-G LEDs can enable LED lighting products that not only meet but exceed the current ENERGY STAR® luminaire and lamp requirements. Cree is accelerating the LED lighting revolution by pushing through performance milestones.”

XP-G LEDs deliver high efficacy at high current, potentially reducing the required number of LEDs, as well as the size and cost of LED fixtures. Neutral-white and warm-white XP-G LEDs are commercially available now in the industry’s smallest ANSI-based chromaticity bins.
