"Energy Efficiency and Sustainable Lighting: a Bet for the Future" ed. by Manuel J. Hermoso-Orzáez, Alfonso Gago-Calderón

This book presents successful cases related to energy efficiency and lighting that may be of great interest to those trying to enter the world of scientific research.

The lighting of both exteriors and interiors is a field within electrical and lighting engineering, where important technological changes have been taking place oriented towards environmental sustainability and energy efficiency. LED technology has been gradually gaining ground in the world of lighting over other technologies due to its high lighting and energy efficiency and savings. However, some problems related to overheating or associated regulation are emerging. This has prompted the search for new, more efficient, and sustainable forms of lighting.
