Tired of paying the hefty electricity costs caused by your energy guzzling incandescent, CFL, and halogen light bulbs? Well, now you can cut down your electricity consumption by using LED GU10 Lamps, which are a much more energy efficient lighting option. These lamps outshine traditional light bulbs as they do not lose all of their lighting energy in excess heat. Nearly all of the energy input into LED GU10 Bulbs is used in producing light output because of the superior lighting technology.

What’s more, these LED GU10 Lamps are known for their amazing lifespan and durability. Once these lamps are installed, they will keep on emitting the same brightness for around 40,000 hours, which is a sharp contrast to traditional bulbs that will need to be changed after just 700 hours or so. LED GU10 lamps are therefore a good option for those places which require illumination 24/7, for example, hospitals or five star hotel reception areas.

Novel Energy Lighting supplies top quality LED Lamps from some of the leading light bulb manufacturers like Philips, Osram, GE, and Megaman. The Philips MasterLED GU10 Lamps are available in a variety of wattages from 4W = 35W equivalent, 5.5W =50W equivalent, up to 8W=65W+ equivalent to a halogen bulb. They are all dimmable, and come with a 5 year warranty. Light output is uniform, consistent, and superior to halogen bulbs. They are designed to fit existing GU10 fixtures to make for a simple retrofit. Available in a variety of colour temperatures from warm white to cool white, and with narrow to wide beam angles to you’re your application. They will save you a vast amount of energy (up to 90% less), and continue to operate for years, delivering large cost of ownership savings.

The 50mm diameter and exclusive reflector shape of this lamp facilitates a wider dispersion of light in the area in where it is installed. Thus, you will not have to spend money on purchasing a lot of different lamps to illuminate a particular space as just one of them will be able to do the job. Some versions of the GU10 lamp are not dimmable, and are slightly cheaper than their dimmable counterparts. They will do a great job in lighting up any commercial area.

Another major benefit of using LED GU10 Lamps, which is worth mentioning, is that they do not emit any harmful ultra-violet rays that may damage the skin or health of a person. And their low use of power also reduces the heat being emitted by the lamp, keeping your space warm and pleasant instead of overheated.

LED Downlights add to the décor of your space. Along with creating an elegant ambience, LED lighting will downsize your electricity bill and maintenance costs. These energy efficient lights use about 80% less electricity than halogen downlights that frequently fail and have a high operational cost. Downlights are used for decorative purposes or functional lighting requirements, and can create a soothing ambience when dimmed.

Novel Energy Lighting supplies downlights from various quality manufacturers including Philips, Megaman, Heathfield, and Ansell Lighting. Novel Energy Lighting offers fixed, tilt and shower fire rated recessed downlights. Other alternates are available such as microwave PIR lights, and daylight sensors, and fittings that are ready for installing LED GU10 or MR16 lamps. Fire rated recessed downlights reduce the risk of fire spreading to other floors. IP40 and above rated downlights are compatible with wet environments, and can be used in bathrooms, kitchens or outdoors.

LED Downlights make the perfect replacement for 50W Halogen bulbs. They can also be used to replace 2 x 18W or 2 x 26W CFL downlights. Being of low wattage, these fittings can be used as ceiling lights or shelf lights.. These sleek recess lights fit flush with ceilings, do not occupy much space and are easy to install. LED lights are designed to last for 50,000 hours, thus reducing maintenance labour and relamping costs. Unlike fluorescent bulbs, LEDs do not contain toxic mercury or lead, making them environmental-friendly. As a result, the hazards associated with disposal are eliminated. This downsizes your maintenance costs, saving your money. Intelligent controls can be installed to save further energy, by switching lights off when ambient light levels are sufficient, or PIRs to detect when rooms are no longer occupied. Specialist controls can change LED colour temperature, dimming levels, and individual downlights can be uniquely addressable through interfaces like DALI and DMX to program exact lighting schedules.

Novel Energy Lighting can assist with your project by providing light plan and lighting design services as required. Please contact us to discuss your project and lux level requirements. LEDs are the perfect solution to help you achieve the right light levels, and deliver a uniform appearance and light dispersal.

LUX Magazine reported New lighting at several London Underground stations that are currently being redeveloped will be all-LED.

Bob Benn, stations engineering manager for London Underground, told the Lighting for Rail conference that stations including Tottenham Court Road, Bond Street and Victoria, will get 100 per cent LED lighting when the work is completed.

Lighting for the stations was initially designed several years ago as part of the redevelopment plans, with fluorescent products in mind. But lighting teams have managed to get specifications updated to take advantage of newer technology.

‘We were basically dealing with an obsolete design,’ said Benn. ‘We’ve managed to change it all to LED lighting, but that’s been a major challenge in London Underground in order to get that through the system.’

Changing the specification to LED means London Underground will reap significant energy and maintenance savings, despite a higher upfront cost. The high cost of conducting maintenance in busy and hard-to-access underground stations means long-lasting products pay for themselves quickly. An earlier project to replace T8 lamps in a number of London Underground stations with LED tubes has saved millions of pounds in maintenance costs, paying for itself in less than 18 months.

‘From the point of view of whole-life cost, we’re very aware of the reduced maintenance of new technology,’ said Benn.

An ongoing programme of station improvements is taking place all over the Tube, and many stations are being upgraded to prepare for the completion of Crossrail.

Work at Bond Street is due to be finished by 2017, while work at Victoria and Tottenham Court Road will go on until 2018.

LED Magazine reports that generally, most people think of solar power as a renewable green energy source and in some cases a way to save money relative to gird power, but increasingly the total cost of ownership of solar guides deployment decisions in outdoor lighting applications. Premiere Homes LLC (PHL), based in Richmond, VA, tapped Sol Inc. to install solar-powered LED street lights based primarily on lower upfront installation costs and secondarily on the long-term energy savings.

Richmond home developer installs LED-based solar street lighting

Indeed, in new construction, the cost of connecting outdoor solid-state lighting (SSL) to the AC grid can be significant. We covered a number of examples including LED trail lighting in Massachusetts and street lighting in Abu Dhabi in a feature article on presentations made at the February Strategies in Light conference.

Looking back, solar has not been the best match for street lighting because of the high light levels required for safety and the long operating hours. Solar panels, with efficiency just over 10%, couldn’t power legacy light sources without excessively large panels and expensive batteries. The efficiency of LED sources and improving battery technology, however, has made solar a viable option — especially in new construction projects where the cost of connecting to the grid is an issue.

Just such a situation arose at the PHL Randolph West community of 70 new single-family homes. “As we were developing the infrastructure for Randolph West, it soon became clear that grid-tied street lighting would be much less efficient and would add significant time to the project,” said Sean Bowers, chief operating officer at PHL. “Once we began to value-engineer possible options, we quickly identified Sol’s commercial solar outdoor lighting as the ideal solution.”

Richmond home developer installs LED-based solar street lighting

Indeed, the Richmond builder avoided the cost of trenching, wire installation, and electrical infrastructure connections that are commonplace in roadway lighting projects. Meanwhile, the city suffered lesser impacts to traffic and parking in the neighborhood, along with less noise. In the end both the builder and the city benefited from the solar choice and the city ended up with a notable green-energy success story.

“As demonstrated by the Randolph West project, solar-powered outdoor street lighting brings significant value to our community and helps us meet our sustainability, social, and economic goals,” said Christopher Beschler, chief administrative officer of operations for Richmond. “For this project, solar lighting was far more effective than traditional grid-tied street lighting, enabling us to provide our residents with visible proof of our city’s commitment to sustainability.”

The solar option is still a new one to most specifiers working on street-light projects where the lights must illuminate reliably. Solar is regularly used in area lighting projects that have a slightly lesser requirement in terms of the lights working all night every night. But the combination of better power electronics, more-efficient panels, LED sources, and battery technology are changing the landscape.

“There is no doubt that commercial solar outdoor lighting is now a cost-effective and high-quality alternative to traditional grid-tied outdoor lighting,” said Dibs Tailor, CEO of Sol. “As demonstrated by the public acclaim garnered by the Randolph West project, our commercial solar outdoor lighting systems provide significant economic benefits to budget-constrained municipal governments, while also contributing to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions that mitigate the negative effects of global warming.”

Novel Energy Lighting supplies a wide range of cost-effective LED lamps and fixtures. These are cost-effective and deliver paybacks of less than 1 year, while lasting over 10 years. We provide full LED range at competitive prices. Moreover, these lights offer lifetime cost benefits with up to 90% energy savings and up to 50,000 hours of operational lighting.

Enhance the lighting of your space by using LED lamps, to provide a crisp, clean, and controllable light. They can produce efficient bright light without compromise on quality. These lamps consume about 10% of the energy of traditional halogen lamps, making them a perfect switch from halogens or CFLs. These robust light bulbs operate differently than traditional bulbs.

LED MR16 lamps operate at low voltage making them safe to work with. LED MR16s come in wattages ranging from 4W to 10W to replace 20W to 50W halogen MR16s. They also come in ‘perfect fit’ dimensions, which makes them easy to retrofit into existing low voltage downlight fittings. These come in a variety of colour temperatures to suit your lighting requirements.

With no emission of harmful UV or IR radiation in form of heat, these are perfectly safe for you to work around with, and are ideal for heat or UV sensitive applications such as galleries or retail lighting.  An added advantage of LEDs is that they are mercury-and  lead-free, which makes them easy to dispose of and safe on the environment.

Novel Energy Lighting supplies LED MR16 lamps from quality manufacturers like Philips, Heathfield, Megaman, Emprex, and Verbatim. These  energy efficient LEDs offer a lifespan ranging from 20,000 hours up to 50,000 hours, which means they will continue to work for many years once installed. They are a fit and forget lighting solution. The quick payback of a few months means these lamps pay for themselves many times over, and cost of ownership savings over the life of the lamp are high.

Lighting.co.uk reported – 50,000 LED luminaires have been installed by National Car Parks (NCP) since January, almost bringing phase one of the multi-million pound project to a close.

Phase one of the £10 million project includes the installation of over 60,000 LED luminaires across 149 multi-storey car parks throughout the UK – from Scotland to the South Coast. NCP is effectively relighting 45,000 car parking spaces. The retrofit is expected to save 11,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions a year and slash energy consumption on car park lighting by 65 per cent.

LED luminaires

The fittings are being supplied and installed by Future Energy Solutions (FES). Phase two of the project is expected to take another two or three years. The contract is funded by FES in partnership with the Green Investment Bank, eliminating the need for any up-front capital from NCP. Instead, NCP will pay out of the energy cost savings over time.

All the installations are maintained for the life of the contract at no extra cost to NCP. FES is installing around 22 types of LED fitting across NCP’s car park stock. One example of the retrofit underway includes the swap out of single 50W T8 fluorescent tubes for 29W LED alternatives.

FES commercial director Marcus Brodin told Lighting: “NCP’s CO2 emissions will be reduced by 11,000 tonnes per annum and mono-nitrogen oxide will be lowered by 248lbs over the same period. This is the equivalent of 10,924 trees being saved or filling up 321,695 fuel tanks every year.”

This is the first transport infrastructure project to qualify for the Government’s UK Guarantee scheme, which was launched in 2013 and which NCP says was vital to the success of this opportunity. NCP manages more than 150,000 car parking spaces across more than 500 car parks up and down the country, and expects the LED retrofit to lead to multi-million pound savings on energy over the lifetime of the new luminaires.

FES has is using a variety of controls across the NCP car parks, depending on the needs of individual spaces. “We have site-specific controls, it depends on the nature of the car park,” explained Brodin. “Strictly speaking we have a load of PIR controls in over half of the luminaires, along with daylight harvesting; the rest are standard or emergency fittings.”

Bodin said the contract does not have a clear end date, as NCP is constantly growing. “Every year NCP wins new contracts with councils or builds new car parks, so it’ll be on going. It’s a moving feast constantly.”

Lux Magazine reports that The Green Investment Bank wants Britain’s streetlights to be 100 per cent LED by 2020 – and it’s putting its money where its mouth is-

Two hundred million pounds. That’s how much the Green Investment Bank reckons the UK could save every year by switching all its streetlights to LED.

In terms of carbon emissions, the impact of a nationwide LED switchover would be like taking 330,000 cars off the roads. And it would pretty much wipe out the need for the London Array offshore wind farm. So why hasn’t it happened yet?

The main reason is, predictably, money. The capital that councils need to kick off a streetlight upgrade is a major obstacle.

That’s where the Green Investment Bank comes in. Set up 18 months ago, the government-owned GIB has £3.8 billion of its own capital to play with, and is helping to attract billions more in private investment to support projects. So far it has committed a total of £1.3 billion to 27 projects covering energy efficiency as well as waste, bioenergy and wind power, with private money increasing the figure to £4.6 billion.

Now the GIB has set its sights on the UK’s seven million streetlights – many of which are over 40 years old. Its new Green Loan service aims to remove the upfront capital cost of an LED upgrade, with councils repaying the money from the savings they make on their electricity bills.

‘Although the technology is proven and the savings are fairly well understood, you need capital to do this,’ said Gregor Paterson-Jones, in charge of energy efficiency at the GIB. ‘When we’ve been out talking to people, they’ve said, we understand this, we’d like to do it, but we just don’t have the budget.

‘Over the past five years we have data to prove that energy savings can be met, and manufacturers are able to give warranties for a long period of time for the performance of those lights. So the complex structures where you transfer risk are not necessarily required, which keeps the cost of financing down.’

As for who supplies the lights and the products that are used, the GIB will leave that up to each local authority.

The GIB’s Green Loan isn’t the first scheme of its kind – the Carbon Trust and the Green Deal have offered similar schemes based on repaying loans from reduced bills, and a number of lighting suppliers have come up with financing packages too. But it’s the first one in the UK aimed particularly at street lighting, and the bank has access to huge amounts of money.

Currently less than 10 per cent of Britain’s streetlights are LED – but there’s no reason we can’t aim to make that 100 per cent by 2020, Paterson-Jones says.

Local authority street lighting managers were recently invited to join MPs at a meeting of the All-Party Parliamentary Lighting Group, to hear about what the bank has to offer.

The first council to benefit from GIB funding for streetlights is Glasgow, which is about to embark on the second phase of a major upgrade as part of its Future Cities programme.

One thousand of Glasgow’s streetlights were upgraded to LED in a pilot project in 2012, and the next phase of the project will target 10,000 more. Over 18 years, the city believes it will make a net saving of more than £8 million from the upgrade.

Brian Devlin, who is in charge of environmental services at Glasgow City Council, said he was ‘delighted’ to be the first local authority to get Green Investment Bank backing. ‘If I’m asked to make a saving, I want to make a saving around supply chain and energy rather than going and reducing schools, social work, front-line service,’ he said.

Joan Walley MP, who co-chairs the All-Party Parliamentary Lighting Group, praised the Glasgow project and called the GIB’s Green Loan a ‘game-changer’. ‘We want to make sure as many local councils as possible can do all they can to access that funding, because when trying to improve street lighting, it always, always, always comes down to finance.’

John Jeffrey of Cheshire West and Chester Council agreed: ‘Finance is the number one obstacle. When your revenue pot shrinks, that makes it more difficult to maintain your borrowing limits and street lighting is not seen as a priority for investment. The Green Investment Bank might unlock that door,’ he said.
