Compressed Air Best Practices - January 2009 - (Page 28) | 01/09 Focus Industry ENERGY REBATES | SEVEN SUSTAINABILITY PROJECTS FOR INDUSTRIAL ENERGY SAVINGS Step #4: Use Lighting Only When Needed: Turning off the lights when a person is not working under the lights is another opportunity. Using occupancy sensors, we found 30 lights in storage areas and warehouse aisles that could be turned off an additional 80 hours per week. The savings was $5,385. Calculation: # of Fixtures x watts per fixture/1,000 x hours on per week x weeks per year x $/kwh = $/year 30 x 440 watts/1,000 x 80 hours/week x 50 weeks per year x $0.102/kwh = $5,385 /year Step #5: Use Energy-Efficient Fixtures: #7 These lights are turned off by sensors when the sunlight is available. Upgrading the lights to high-efficiency light fixtures will reduce the energy use per fixture by 50% and use 220 watts per fixture vs the original 440 watt. Remember we eliminated 20 lights and reduced the hours of 30 more lights. (Reference photos #1 and #2) Calculation: # of Fixtures x watts per fixture/1,000 x hours on per week x weeks per year x $/kwh = $/year 75 x 220 watts/1,000 x 166 hours/week x 50 weeks per year x $0.102/kwh = $13,969 /year 30 x 220 watts/1,000 x 86 hours/week x 50 weeks per year x $0.102/kwh = $2,895 /year Total savings for high efficiency = $16,846/year #8 Lowering the lights from the ceiling reduces energy waste. 28 www.airbestpractices.com http://www.airbestpractices.com
