Energy Efficiency 3 1. Introduction 2. Types of lighting systems 3. Energy efficiency and other considerations 4/29/2015

Lighting energy consumption 20-45% in commercial buildings Significant energy savings can be realized with a minimal capital investment and common sense (JESSUP)For example, replacing high pressure sodium Fixtures with LED Fixtures (JESSUP) Background 4/29/20154

Quality of Illumination Quality of illumination may affect worker productivity: Glare. Too bright. Uniformity of illumination. Color rendition. Ability to see colors properly.  Scale 0 to 100 (100 is best) Color Temperature. Warm to Cool.  Measured in degrees Kelvin (K) is warm (yellowish); 5000 is cool or “daylight”. 4/29/2015 5

Types of Lighting Systems  High pressure sodium lamps  Low pressure sodium lamps  Mercury vapor  Metal halide  LED lamps ( light-Emitting Diode) light-Emitting Diode  Incandescent lamps  Tungsten Halogen Lamps  Fluorescent lamps High Intensity Discharge (HID) lamps 4/29/2015 7

Ballasts  Old type ballasts were electromagnetic.  New ballasts are electronic Lighter, less noisy, no lamp flicker, dimming capability. Maximize your energy savings by selecting electronic ballasts with Low ballast factor that provides target illuminance. 4/29/2015 8

Types of Lighting Controls Occupancy Sensors Photo Sensors Lighting Control Systems 4/29/20159

LED Lamps  Newest type of energy efficient lamp  Two types: red-blue-green array phosphor-coated blue lamp  Emit visible light in a very narrow spectrum and can produce “white light”  Used in variety of applications over vast spectrum of spaces  Technology is rapidly progressing  Significant energy savings: 82 – 93%  Longest lamp life: 40,000 – 100,000 hrs 4/29/

 Improved Color Rendition/Visibility in Space  Longer Lamp Life  Less Maintenance (Normally a result of longer lamp life)  Adjust to target light levels  Improved Controls  HVAC Savings – Typically (1% to 2%) above lighting savings for cooled spaces  Incentive from Utility Rebates Other Benefits 4/29/201519

Hazardous Waste Disposal  Under current federal law, mercury-containing lamps (fluorescent, HID) may be hazardous waste.  Lamps containing mercury that fail the Toxic Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) test must be recycled!  EPA encourages responsible disposal practices to limit the release of mercury into the environment. TYPICAL MERCURY CONTENT OF VARIOUS LAMPS 250 watt Metal Halide lamp 38 mg 250 watt High Pressure Sodium lamp 15 mg Typical T8 Fluorescent Tube 4-5 mg Typical Compact Fluorescent (CFL) 4-5 mg 4/29/201520

Fluorescent Lamp/Ballast Change-out vs. New Fixture “Rules of Thumb”  Install new fixtures when: Existing fixtures are over 20 years old Lamp holders are worn out Multiple components are failing Design requires change in fixture type  Retrofit existing fixtures with lamps & ballasts when: Existing fixtures are less than 20 years old Lamp holders and other components are still good Budget is very tight Expensive/Difficult/Environmental Conditions Present (i.e. asbestos or excessive piping and ducts in ceiling, etc.) 4/29/201521
