The “BEST” measures for a lighting system?
• Approximately 50% of the equation for light levels is the lumens/watt.
• Approximately 50% is the environment those lumens sit in.
• What are the some other factors?– Cost– Lamp life– CRI/K temp– Heat

“BEST” Lighting
• T8!!– Lowest cost– Great energy savings– Flexibility– High burn hours– Legacy– Yes, they still have mercury.– Very low depreciation

LED?
• Still dealing with high cost• Efficacy is improving almost weekly, lm/watt
continue to rise.– Physics say it could get to 260 lm/watt, then we have
REAL energy savings.• Creates a legacy problem• Great for dimming.• Relatively low environmental impact.• Still dealing with BAD manufacturers and marketers.

Effective Controls
• Turn the D#$& LIGHTS OFF!• Simple occ/vacancy sensors• Use Daylight, IT’S FREE!• Dimming, comfort and personal preferences
raise costs, evaluate carefully!• Can’t manage what you don’t measure, but
measuring and not managing is STUPID!

TRAINING
• Recent EE program test took place for K-12 in GA.
• Program took and existing training package, Building Operator’s Certification and applied it to K-12.
• First reported results, 6 months– 72% posted data– Savings, $124,000+(spend was $30,800)– Training PAYS for itself!
