A key reason for electricity utilities selecting the Ecobulb®™ is its high power factor technical superiority. The high power factor Ecobulb®™ results in a 50% greater electricity distribution network load reduction (approximately 17VA per bulb) than ordinary CFL's. This increased reduction is worth approximately $16 per Ecobulb®™ of deferred new electricity distribution network capital investment for the utilities.
Large numbers of ordinary CFL's are also detrimental to electricity utility networks, as they cause electrical interference on their networks. This requires expensive electronic correction by the utilities. The high power factor Ecobulb®™ does not create this electrical interference. Consequently, $6 of network correction per Ecobulb®™ is avoided relative to installing a CFL.
