[Greenbuilding] energy and power terms

Sorry, I should have known.
But there are many uses for 1000w lights in high-bay applications (non-residential). They even have LED lamps using 200w to replace 1000w HPS, for the self- respecting greenie's use.

Well, that's just plain silly !

What self-respecting Greenie would use a 1000 watt light bulb ?
Obviously the guy was using a 100 watt bulb.
But wait, a 100 Watt-equivalent CFL is only 23 Watts so ...

Okay, okay. My bad. As mentioned at the outset:
