3. Light Emitting Diodes CAN THEY SAVE THE WORLD?

4. So really … How do they work? In the simplest terms, they efficiently convert the electrical current (you know, the one the semi conductor carries) into light.

5. Benefits of LEDs Last an average of 100,000 hours (or about ten years). 50,000 hours for White LEDs Withstand shocks, vibrations, frequent switching and temperature extremes that rapidly incapacitate fragile incandescent lamps. Are 10 to 50 times more energy- efficient, thus reducing your operating costs by up to 90%. Produce little to no heat, cool to the touch, so they are safer then traditional lighting products

6. COMPARISONS Current Incandescent Fixtures WORKLIGHTS 10 Fluorescent at 60w= 600w HOUSELIGHTS 14 Incandescent at 52w=729w THEATRICAL LIGHTS 23 fixtures totaling 19,500w Total usage or load= 20,828 watts Proposed Light-Emitting Diode Fixtures WORKLIGHTS 10 LED at45w = 450w HOUSELIGHTS 14 LED at 14w = 196w THEATRICAL LIGHTS 25 fixtures totaling 4110w Total usage or load = 4756 watts

7. How Many Circuits? 4756 Watts We all know that a 20amp circuit running an 120 volt service will hold 2400 watts. RIGHT? Yes, the math, then says we need 2 @ 20amp circuits, which could potentially handle the 4756watts – the maximum our all-LED lighting systems could use However, we are budgeting for three circuits or 7200 watts (7.2 kWh) The distribution of LED lights to three circuits will provide the potential for generous growth of lighting fixtures.

10. Let’s Introduce Time We needed to know how many hours the lighting systems in Heather Hall was used, per week, and which lighting systems were used. After all, not everyone uses the theatrical lighting system, some just use daylight and work lights. So, we used the weekly sign-up sheets that are posted outside and spoke with students and faculty.

11. GUESSTIMATED TOTAL of kWh (weekly) WORKLIGHT- 95 hours x 450w = 4275 or 4.3 kWh HOUSELIGHT-85 hours x 196w = 2744 or 2.7 kWh STAGELIGHT-45 hours x 4110w = 184,950 or 185 kWh GRAND TOTAL of 202 kWh per week

12. Monthly Usage = 1000 kWh Fact is, most energy measurement data uses a monthly figure, so we did the math and added room for growth, and are using the nice round 1000 kWh (202 kWh/wk, 4+ weeks in a month plus room for sound system and adding other lighting and projection effects.

13. 1000 kWh to Make With Renewable Energy After studying the currently potential for solar and wind power, relying heavily on David Stump’s detailed research/design report to Georgetown Utility Systems, Georgetown Rail Equipment and the American Public Power Association. His report did not favor the employment of wind energy because of the area’s low average wind speed, too low for conventional propeller-type turbines.

14. So, after further research on wind turbine technology, our goal is: 70% or 700 kWh per month - SOLAR 30% or 300 kWh per month - WIND
