Nobody has more experience in outdoor lighting than GE. We first offered gas street lighting in the late 1800s. During the 20th century, GE became widely respected for the quality and performance of our carbon arc search lights and later, for fixtures using electric lights. Today GE is a world leader in the innovation, design, production and application of energy-efficient Evolve™ LED Lighting Fixtures as well as traditional HID (High Intensity Discharge) fixtures.
