The services of the European Commission have created a website in 22 languages to inform consumers, professionals and the media about the wide range of energy efficient bulbs currently available, the phase-out of inefficient bulb types and what European legislation is already in place. The website includes an interactive tool that helps you select the appropriate bulb for your needs and a description of important product parameters that will have to be included on the packaging of bulbs from 1 September 2010 to allow consumers to make informed choices.
