I kēia mau lā, ke mākaukau nei ke alakaʻi ʻo Biden e hoʻokō i ka pāpā ʻana i ka ʻāina holoʻokoʻa i nā ʻōpuʻu kukui i hoʻohana mau ʻia ma ke ʻano he ʻāpana o kāna ʻoihana ikehu a me ke ʻano kumuhana.
ʻO nā lula, e pāpā ana i nā mea kūʻai aku mai ke kūʻai aku ʻana i nā ʻōpuʻu kukui, ua hoʻopau ʻia e ka 'Oihana o Energy (DOE) i ʻApelila 2022 a ua manaʻo ʻia e mana ma ʻAukake 1, 2023. E hoʻomaka ka DOE i ka hoʻokō piha ʻana i ka pāpā i kēlā lā , akā, ua koi mua ia i nā mea kūʻai aku e hoʻomaka i ka hoʻololi ʻana mai ke ʻano o ke kukui kukui a hoʻomaka i ka hoʻopuka ʻana i nā leka hoʻomaopopo i nā hui i nā mahina i hala iho nei.
"Ke hoʻohana nei ka ʻoihana kukui i nā huahana ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka ikehu, a ʻo kēia ana e hoʻolōʻihi i ka holomua e hāʻawi i nā huahana maikaʻi loa i nā mea kūʻai aku ʻAmelika a kūkulu i kahi wā e hiki mai ana," wahi a Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm i 2022.
Wahi a ka hoʻolaha DOE, e mālama nā lula i kahi $ 3 biliona i kēlā me kēia makahiki ma nā bila pono no nā mea kūʻai aku a ʻoki i nā hoʻokuʻu kalapona e 222 miliona metric tons i nā makahiki ʻekolu e hiki mai ana.
E like me nā lula, e pāpā ʻia nā ʻōpuʻu kukui halogen a me nā ʻano like ʻole no ke kukui-emitting diode a i ʻole LED.ʻOiai ua hoʻololi nui nā ʻohana US i nā ʻōpuʻu kukui LED mai ka makahiki 2015, ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi o 50% o nā hale i hōʻike ʻia e hoʻohana ana i ka nui a i ʻole nā LED, e like me nā hopena hou loa mai ka Residential Energy Consumption Survey.
Ua hōʻike ʻia ka ʻikepili federal, 47% hoʻohana i ka nui a i ʻole nā LED wale nō, 15% hoʻohana i ka hapa nui o ka incandescent a i ʻole halogens, a ʻo 12% ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka hapa nui a i ʻole nā kānaka fluorescent (CFL), me kekahi 26 e hōʻike ana ʻaʻohe ʻano puʻupuʻu nui.I ka mahina o Kekemapa i hala, ua hoopuka ka DOE i na rula kaawale e papa ana i na opu kukui CFL, e hoomoe ana i ke ala no na LED e lilo i mau kukui kanawai wale no e kuai.
ʻO ke kaua a Biden Admin i nā mea hana hale e hoʻonui ai i nā kumukūʻai kiʻekiʻe, ʻōlelo ka poʻe loea
Wahi a ka ʻikepili noiʻi, ʻoi aku ka kaulana o nā LED i nā ʻohana ʻoi aku ka nui o ka loaʻa kālā, ʻo ia hoʻi ka hopena o nā lula o ka ikehu i ka poʻe ʻAmelika haʻahaʻa.ʻOiai ʻo 54% o nā hale me ka loaʻa kālā ma mua o $100,000 i kēlā me kēia makahiki i hoʻohana i nā LED, ʻo 39% wale nō o nā hale me ka loaʻa kālā o $20,000 a i ʻole nā LED i hoʻohana ʻia.
"Ke manaʻoʻiʻo nei mākou ua loaʻa nā ʻōpuʻu LED no kēlā poʻe mea kūʻai aku i makemake iā lākou ma mua o nā ʻōpuʻu incandescent no ka noʻonoʻo ʻana i ka ikehu ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi," kahi hui o ka mākeke manuahi a me nā hui mea kūʻai aku e kūʻē i ka pāpā ʻana i ka ʻōpuʻu incandescent i kākau i loko o kahi leka manaʻo i ka DOE i ka makahiki i hala.
"ʻOiai ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o nā LED a ʻoi aku ka lōʻihi ma mua o nā ʻōpuʻu incandescent, ʻoi aku ka nui o ke kumukūʻai ma mua o nā ʻōpala incandescent a ʻoi aku ka haʻahaʻa no kekahi mau hana e like me ka dimming," wahi a ka leka.
ʻO 39% wale nō o nā hale me ka loaʻa kālā o $20,000 a i ʻole ka liʻiliʻi e hoʻohana i nā LED i ka hapa nui a i ʻole wale nō, e like me ka ʻike noiʻi ʻāina.(Eduardo Parra/Europa Press ma Getty Images)
