12. Boston showing leadership in Energy Conservation City of Boston is converting over 95% of its approximately 60,000 street lights to LED’s One Third have been completed 20,000 lights X 12 hrs X175 Watts = 42,000 kwh per day (42,000kwh X 1.64 lbs. CO2 Per kwh)/2000 lbs/ton X.9 metric tons /per english ton = 31 metric tons With one third completed the emissions have been reduced by 31 metric tons a day When completed the reduction will be 93 metric tons/day Or 93 X 365 = 33945 metric tons per year Copyright© 2014 MicroE3, LLC

13. Is Light Output Compromised? Light output is commonly referred to as Lumens. Output can be affected by a large variety of factors (light angle, area covered, reflectors, amount of wasted light etc.). Copyright© 2014 MicroE3, LLC

14. Conclusions LEDs reduce fossil fuel based energy usage by conservation(reduced consumer cost) vs Renewable energy(increased consumer cost) While the initial cost of LED bulbs may be higher, they have a much longer lifespan than Metal Halide bulbs. Copyright© 2014 MicroE3, LLC

15. Extend LED replacements to individual Residences Emission reductions can be accomplished in several ways. Approach should be accomplished by most economic method and with minimal impact on environment. Preferred approach is Conservation Conservation is Cheap Full LED replacement in a typical residence has dropped from approximately $1600 to about $300 Copyright© 2014 MicroE3, LLC

19. LEDs make sense For RI the savings per month are $5,220,000 vs an increase in cost of 5,227,500 which is a differential of $10,447,500 or $51 per household per month. For MA the savings per month are $53,125,000 vs an increase in cost of $43,750,000 which is a differential of $96,875,000 or $77.50 per household per month. Copyright© 2014 MicroE3, LLC

20. Emission and Energy Reductions resulting from the use of LED’s in Households Copyright© 2014 MicroE3, LLC

21. The Big Picture 2012, 113.93 million homes in the United States consumed 1,375 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity Install LED’s in half the homes and the energy usage is reduced by 25% or 172 billion kwh which converts to a reduction of 128 million metric tons of CO2 emissions The global consulting firm McKinsey & Company found that $520 billion invested in energy efficiency in the United States could reduce projected energy demand 23 percent by 2020. This could be accomplished with LED’s at a cost reduction Copyright© 2014 MicroE3, LLC

22. Small Investment Half of the 114 million homes in this country is 57 million 40 LED replacement bulbs at $20 each is $45 Billion McKinsey and Company estimated that $520 Billion would be needed to reduce the energy demand by 23%. Installing LED’s in 57 million homes would reduce the energy demand by 12.5% at a cost of 45 Billion Installing LED’s in Offices and Stores would provide another 10% minimum in energy consumption for the same $45 Billion Copyright© 2014 MicroE3, LLC

23. Result CO2 emissions are reduced by more than 25% for less than 20% of the $520 Billion projected cost by McKinsey and Company Why are we considering the expensive energy alternatives when we can make substantial reduction in CO2 emissions and reduce Cost Copyright© 2014 MicroE3, LLC

25. Reference for use of lbs. of CO2 per kilowatt-hour of delivered electricity http://www.epa.gov/cleanenergy/energy-resources/refs.html Number of incandescent bulbs switched to compact fluorescent bulbs A 13 watt compact fluorescent light bulb produces the same light output as a 60 watt incandescent light bulb. Annual energy consumed by a light bulb is calculated by multiplying the power (60 watts) by the average daily use (3 hours / day) by the number of days per year (365). Assuming an average daily use of 3 hours per day, an incandescent bulb consumes 65.7 kWh per year, and a compact fluorescent light bulb consumes 14.2 kWh per year (EPA 2013). Annual energy savings from replacing an incandescent light bulb with an equivalent compact fluorescent bulb are calculated by subtracting the annual energy consumption of the compact fluorescent light bulb (14.2 kWh) from the annual energy consumption of the incandescent bulb (65.7 kWh). Carbon dioxide emissions reduced per light bulb switched from an incandescent bulb to a compact fluorescent bulb are calculated by multiplying annual energy savings by the national average non-baseload carbon dioxide output rate for delivered electricity. The national average non-baseload carbon dioxide output rate for generated electricity in 2010 was 1,519.6 lbs. CO2 per megawatt-hour (EPA 2014), which translates to about 1,637.5 lbs. CO2 per megawatt-hour for delivered electricity (assuming transmission and distribution losses at 7.2%) (EIA 2013a, 2013b; EPA 2014). Copyright© 2014 MicroE3, LLC

26. Lower Lumens Does Not Mean Poor Light “LED street lights with a lower lumen output can replace conventional lamps with a higher output. For example, a 30W LED street light can often replace an 80W High Pressure Sodium lamp. The reason for this is directionality. LED street lamps are very directional and the light output is much more even then by other street lamps. Also there is little or no hot spot under the LED lamp. The light emitted from the LED lamp is directed downwards, spread throughout the entire area it covers. This means that a lower amount of light is needed to properly illuminate the area. This also dramatically reduces light pollution, which affects the mood of human beings, navigation in birds and insects, mating behavior in animals and flowering in plants.” Source: www.grahlighting.euwww.grahlighting.eu “LED lights feature superior directional characteristics, and can dramatically reduce night sky pollution. The narrow beam angle featured on many LED lights provides illumination within the intended areas only. Not only does this reduce light pollution, but also promotes higher overall system efficiency.” Source: https://www.greenvisionled.com/metal-halide-vs-led.html https://www.greenvisionled.com/metal-halide-vs-led.html Copyright© 2014 MicroE3, LLC

27. Lumens : Metal Halide vs. LED HID = Metal Halide *Scotopic refers to visual perception in low light, photopic refers to color perception in normal light. The ratio of Scotopic light vs. Photopic light is called the S/P ratio. This ratio determines the apparent visual brightness of a light source. Higher S/P ratios appear brighter to the human eye.
