1 Induction Lighting: “Bringing the Future to Light” October 24,2008

2 Agenda 1.What is “Induction Lighting”? 2.Sustainability / Industry Trends. 3.Benefits of Induction Technology 4.Typical Lamp life and Maintenance. 5.Applications. 6.Current Installations. 7.Q&A.

3 What is “Induction Lighting”?  Essentially a fluorescent lamp without electrodes or filaments.  Rings with magnetic coils create an electro magnetic field using a high frequency generated by the electronic ballast.  This field goes around the glass filled tube.  Electrons discharged by the magnetic coils collide with mercury atoms inside the tube and become excited.  These electrons give off energy in the form of invisible UV light.  The conversion to visible light occurs when it passes through a phosphor coating on the inside surface of the tube.  The lamp therefore relies on the fundamental principles of gas discharge and electromagnetic “induction” to produce light.  As a result the lamp offers an unmatched life span. They can last longer than 100 incandescent bulbs, 5 HID, or 5 typical fluorescent lamp changes.

4 Sustainability / Industry Trends Improved Lighting Standards Decreased Energy Costs Government rebate and energy efficiency incentives Longer lasting lamps, reduced operational and maintenance costs Reduction in mercury based products to the landfill sites Increased awareness with regards environmental initiatives Ability to be more flexible with infrastructure lighting

5 Benefits of Induction Lighting Replaces old lighting technology/reduces energy costs/increases operational profits: Lighting is a major component of these energy costs, and in general represents 35% of a typical buildings total energy consumption Energy costs represent 40% of a typical buildings annual budget, as such; they are the single largest component of operating costs Provides higher quality light using less energy, resulting in a significant reduction in operating costs – lamps are 98% efficient – no heat loss or heat generated. HVAC cost reduction 100,000 hour/5 year warranty eliminates current re-lamping and maintenance costs Increasing Safety and Security – instant on and re-strike – no flicker-no hum Increasing productivity with superior lighting Improved environmental position - reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, eliminates dangerous mercury vapour,. Less demand for power on local utilities reduces electrical power generation

6 Typical Lamp Life and Maintenance Lumen Maintenance

7 Typical Applications Arenas, swimming pools and Gymnasiums Tennis courts, common areas, walkways Street lighting, parking lots, garages, building wall exteriors Railway stations, airports, bus stations Tunnels, bridges Retail stores, entranceways, security lighting Street signs, billboards High Bay lighting for warehouses and manufacturing facilities
