BURLINGTON, Ont. — Ikea Canada announced that as of September 1, all Ikea stores will only sell LED bulbs and lighting, fulfilling a commitment announced in 2012. LED is a light source that uses 85% less energy than incandescent bulbs and can last up to 20 years. Each LED bulb reportedly saves approximately $10 in electricity costs per year, compared with incandescent bulbs. This year, Ikea has already sold 1.5 million LED bulbs to Canadians, which the company says has helped Canadian customers save 110 million kilowatt hours and about $12 million in energy costs.
