Abstract
CFLs as lamps intended to replace incandescent lamps and having overall lengths of eight inches (20 cm) or less. CFL bulbs require low energy than what other bulbs requires for operating. Compact fluorescent lights (CFLs) use between one-quarter and one-third as much electricity as incandescent bulbs to provide the same amount of light. Iin households that use CFLs, the average number of CFLs is greatly outweighed by the average number of incandescent lights. This paper is a study to measure the current level of awareness of CFL amongst the households and identify efficient ways to increase the awareness amongst the people. This study also attempts to measure the market potential of CFL bulbs .This study will be helpful in judging the scope of LEDs in the future. The sample for this study was collected from the city of Coimbatore, Tamilnadu. A total of 200 samples were collected through survey using quota sampling technique. The result of the study shows that awareness about the CFL bulbs play a bigger role in purchase decision of CFL bulbs. And also the study shows that most of the demographic factors are not associated with the awareness level. More importantly, the study also highlights the future of CFLs and its market space through the determination of Market Potential.
