This one-day workshop, organized by the UK Displays and Lighting network (UKDL) takes place to be held at Building Design Partnership, London, UK on June 24, 2008.
While LEDs are already common in many applications in this sector, OLEDs are the next disruptive technology and promise to revolutionize the way we can light architectural spaces/areas. The meeting aims to establish and facilitate the development of partnerships within the SSL industry, research community, standards-setting organisations, energy-efficiency groups, utilities, and others.
The event will outline some of the barriers and pitfalls that should be avoided to enhance the take-up of solid-state products – LEDs now, OLEDs soon - to avoid buyer dissatisfaction and delays in market development.
A full agenda and registration information can be found on the UKDL website. Alternatively, contact the UKDL Team on [email protected] or call +44(0)1908 276665.
Voices for SSL Efficiency 2008 Workshop

Light Up The World training course
A training course entitled "Installation of Solar Photovoltaic Modules and Solid State Lighting Systems in Developing Countries" is being run by Light Up The World Foundation.
The course will take place on Saturday June 21st 2008 from 9 am to 4 pm at Suite 100, 4500-16 Avenue N.W, T2B 0M6, in Calgary, Alberta. For more information please contact Lana Banks at [email protected] , call 1 (403) 210-9517 or register online at www.lutw.org. The cost of attending the seminar is $150.00.
This is a unique opportunity to gather with dedicated individuals actively working to implement small scale renewable energy projects in developing countries.
The focus of this one-day seminar will be on photovoltaic systems, solid state lighting and system installation. The seminar will also discuss the economics on energy consumption for lighting in less developed countries as well as what community based renewable energy projects in developing countries entails. There will be two seminar leaders:
Stuart Torr who has experience in design, construction, project management and related training in renewable energy projects worldwide.
Christoph Schultz who is the LUTW Program Director with experience designing microfinance programs.
