BuaNews Online reports that South African Minerals and Energy Minister Lindiwe Hendricks wants to phase out incandescent light bulbs in the country and replace them with compact fluourescent lights. In the report, Hendricks says that although various stakeholders have mounted energy efficiency campaigns, energy saving has not become a way of life to many South Africans -- including motorists. Speaking at the 17th annual eta awards for energy efficiency in Johannesburg, Hendricks said her department would take steps to phase out the use of certain classes of incandescent light bulbs in the country because the bulbs are believed to be energy wasteful. They would be replaced with the compact fluorescent lamps, which manufacturers say use 25 percent less electricity than traditional bulbs to produce the same amount of light.
