8. Conversions
DEV will now install LEDs at no charge when replacing non-functioning streetlights
Upon request, DEV will replace with HPSV until inventory exhausted
For functioning fixtures, conversion cost depends on classification
$130 to replace basic fixture with LED
$386 to replace premium fixture with LED
2018 change in DEV tax effect recovery factor (TERF) increases conversion cost by 15.34%

10. Conversion Savings Example: Arlington County
Significantly reduced cost to convert an existing basic HPSV luminaire to LED:
$1, per 2017 DEV estimate (average)
$ per 2018 agreement (flat rate)
$ per 2018 agreement + TERF
Savings even with $386 cost to convert existing premium luminaires
Including TERF brings cost to $445

11. LED Cost Savings Preliminary Estimates: City of Alexandria
Analysis assumes use of suggested replacement fixtures shown on VEPGA Contract Schedule D, Attachment 1, and excludes 571 specialized “Gadsby” fixtures

12. LED Cost Savings Preliminary Estimates: Fairfax County
Conversion can be an opportunity to upgrade outdoor lighting, but upgrades can impact savings
Upgrades don’t affect conversion cost because the charge is based on the existing fixture
