Default Garage Lighting

I'm just doing up my garage/workshop and would appreciate advice on
what sort of lighting to put up. It's a double-width garage, one
smallish window on one side. During daylight that's sufficient but
with the evenings drawing in I'm going to be relying on candlepower
more and more.

I currently have a 100w bulb centrally, and one 40w flourescent either
side. That's sufficient for me to find my way around, but for workshop
purposes I'm wondering about how to improve the lighting so as to be
able to work comfortably.

Have thought about putting a 100w bulb in each corner (as well as the
central bulb), but that adds up to 500w of power consumption - quite a
lot relatively speaking. Perhaps someone has used other types of light
source which they could recommend.
