Megaman launches online Cost of Ownership Tool to calculate LED energy savings
Comments off · Posted by admin in Infographics, LED, LED downlights, LED GU10, LED MR16 lamps, LED Spots
Megaman UK has launched an invaluable, simple to use online service to assist home owners, contractors, specifiers or anyone involved in lighting to calculate the potential savings that can be achieved when switching from standard light sources to Megaman’s energy saving LEDs.
The new online tool, which is focused on the end user, uses quick and simple calculations to provide annual cost savings, payback and energy usage in kW and CO2. Different lamp types can also be compared at any given time to clearly show the savings involved in changing one room, two rooms or even a whole house to LED lamps using a mixture of Megaman’s LED lamps such as GU10, Classic or Candle ranges. This clever tool is also capable of generating a series of results that can be downloaded immediately or saved for assessment at a later stage.
Anyone wanting to take advantage of this service to evaluate their potential savings should visit the Megaman website where the new tool is ready to use.
Novel Energy Lighting sells the range of Megaman LED lamps and fittings, please visit our site today, or call to discuss your project requirements: 0208-540-8287, sales@novelenergylighting.com

Royal Mail Group has reduced its energy demands by 11GWh per annum by replacing lighting with LED lamps and additional controls across 16 mail centres within the UK. The replacement programme converted 200,000 m2 of operational floor space and saw the removal of approximately 20,000 fluorescent lamps. The financial payback period was 2.5 years.
The LED lighting replacement programme represents a significant commitment by Royal Mail Group to reduce energy usage throughout its portfolio. In addition to the 11GWh annual energy saving, further substantial benefits include a reduced maintenance liability by the removal of fluorescent lamps.
Royal Mail worked closely with the contractors and supply chain to optimise a programme designed to have zero impact on mail centre operations in terms of mail throughput and disruption. Royal Mail Group Property engaged with its internal ‘Environment Pillars’ and operations teams to assist with the coordination of the installation programme to ensure good practice and optimise savings.
The programme also incorporated the installation of daylight dimmable lighting controls on several projects together with PIR sensors to maximise energy savings and harness natural daylight. This has proven extremely effective and ensured additional energy savings have been generated.
The Royal Mail Group also integrated measurement and verification (M&V) in accordance with the International Measurement & Verification Protocol (IPMVP) at each site undergoing LED replacement. The M&V was undertaken by independent IPMVP-certified consultants. This provided a robust verification process, delivering evidence that targeted energy savings were being achieved and giving confidence for future deployment of LED low energy lighting schemes.
For more on this project, don’t miss LuxLive, where John Bradshaw, engineering and technical services manager at Royal Mail, will talk delegates through the rollout of LEDs and controls to the 16 UK mail centres
The project is shortlisted for the Lux Awards, also on Thursday 19 November.

Energy-efficient lighting is ‘top green investment’
Comments off · Posted by admin in LED, LED downlights, LED GU10, LED panels, LED Tubes, Philips LED
Lux Magainze report: Energy-efficient lighting has come out top in a survey of green technology investments for businesses.
Over three quarters of businesses (77 per cent) polled by the Carbon Trust said they had invested in energy-efficient lighting in the past year, while 59 per cent had invested in employee training and 57 per cent had invested in energy metering and monitoring.
Almost all businesses surveyed said energy efficiency was an important consideration when buying or upgrading equipment.
However, the survey also highlighted reservations about the transition to the new technology, with only half of respondents (51 per cent) saying they were confident about manufacturers’ energy-efficiency claims.
Hugh Jones, managing director of business advice at the Carbon Trust said: ‘Our survey showed that return on investment is the most important factor for organisations considering investing in energy efficiency and low carbon technologies.’
The survey comes as the Carbon Trust launches the Green Business Directory, which lists suppliers that have been vetted under the trust’s Accredited Supplier scheme.
