1 83 years of excellence The Association of Electrical and Medical Imaging Equipment Manufacturers Federal Legislation: Outdoor and Street Lighting Kyle Pitsor Vice President, Government Relations National Electrical Manufacturers Association October 20, 2009

2 83 years of excellence The Association of Electrical and Medical Imaging Equipment Manufacturers NEMA: Who We Are Trade association of 430 manufacturers of electrical and medical imaging products Generation, transmission, distribution, control, and end-use of electricity $120 billion in domestic shipments 400,000 jobs $30 billion in exports

3 83 years of excellence The Association of Electrical and Medical Imaging Equipment Manufacturers NEMA Core Functions Codes and Standards Government Relations Market Data & Business Information Services Industry Marketing & Promotion

4 83 years of excellence The Association of Electrical and Medical Imaging Equipment Manufacturers Product Diversity Lighting Electric motors MRI and CT scanners Batteries and energy storage Industrial controls Fuses Switchgear Transformers Connectors and outlets Smoke and CO detectors Building wire Capacitors Traffic controls Welding equipment Circuit breakers Ultrasound imaging Power cable

5 83 years of excellence The Association of Electrical and Medical Imaging Equipment Manufacturers NEMA Lighting Systems Division Lamps Ballasts Luminaires Lighting Controls Emergency Lighting Solid State Lighting

6 83 years of excellence The Association of Electrical and Medical Imaging Equipment Manufacturers Recent U.S. Federal Legislation Affecting Outdoor Lighting The Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct 2005) The Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA 2007)

7 83 years of excellence The Association of Electrical and Medical Imaging Equipment Manufacturers Energy Policy Act of 2005 Mercury Vapor Lamp Ballasts  For general illumination applications may not be manufactured or imported, effective January 1, 2008  In 2005, a notice in the Federal Register clarified that this also includes luminaires containing such ballasts  2007 legislation provides for continued use in specialty applications provided the ballast is marked “Not for general illumination” and identifies the specialty application

8 83 years of excellence The Association of Electrical and Medical Imaging Equipment Manufacturers Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) of 2007 Metal Halide Fixtures  Metal halide lamp fixtures operated with lamps ≥150W but ≤ 500W shall contain one of the following A pulse-start metal halide ballast with a minimum ballast efficiency of 88% or A magnetic probe-start ballast with a minimum ballast efficiency of 94% or A non-pulse-start electronic ballasts with –A minimum ballast efficiency of 92% for wattages > 250 –A minimum ballast efficiency of 90% for wattages ≤ 250W

9 83 years of excellence The Association of Electrical and Medical Imaging Equipment Manufacturers EISA: Metal Halide Fixtures Exclusions  Fixture with regulated lag ballasts  Fixtures with electronic ballasts to operate at 480V  Fixtures that Are only rated for 150W lamps and Are rated for use in wet locations and Contain a ballast that is rated to operate at ambient air temperatures above 50°C Effective Date  Applies to fixtures manufactured on or after January 1, 2009 State laws with earlier effective dates remained in effect until the Federal standards became effective

10 83 years of excellence The Association of Electrical and Medical Imaging Equipment Manufacturers Market Characterization Current Outdoor Lighting Market  High Intensity Discharge (HID) - 86.8 % Street and Roadway Lighting –Mercury Vapor-20% –High Pressure Sodium-52.3% –Low Pressure Sodium-5% Downtown Cities and Parking Lots –Metal Halide-9.5%  Incandescent -11.2%  Fluorescent -1.9%  Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs)-0.01% New technology--some pilot projects *Data from U.S. Lighting Market Characterization, Navigant Consulting 2002

11 83 years of excellence The Association of Electrical and Medical Imaging Equipment Manufacturers 2009 Federal Energy Legislation NEMA Approach for Outdoor Lighting  New building construction and major renovations Adopt and enforce most current version of ASHRAE/IES 90.1 Funding to states to implement and improve energy codes  Existing building outdoor lighting Tax incentives for building outdoor lighting replacement and upgraded to meet ASHRAE/IES 90.1 - 2007  Street and roadway lighting Set lumens per watt (LPW) standard based on applications, promote use of controls, and direct DOE to conduct rulemaking to update Federal standards

12 83 years of excellence The Association of Electrical and Medical Imaging Equipment Manufacturers House and Senate Bills Setting federal energy efficiency standards for outdoor and roadway lighting luminaires H.R. 2454 (Waxman-Markey, ACESA 2009) –Section 211 – Outdoor Lighting Standards [modified H.R. 1732 (Harman-Upton)] S. 1462 –Senate “vehicle” –NEMA testified in favor of including ODL

13 83 years of excellence The Association of Electrical and Medical Imaging Equipment Manufacturers House Legislation: Section 211 (a) Outdoor Luminaires  Manufactured on or after January 1, 2016 shall have initial luminaire efficacy ≥ 50 LPW, and use light source with lumen maintenance ≥ 0.6 have capability of producing at least 2 different light levels, including 100% and 60% of full lamp output –outdoor luminaries used for roadway lighting exempt from control requirements  Manufactured on or after January 1, 2018, shall have an initial luminaire efficacy ≥ 70 LPW, and use a light source with a lumen maintenance ≥ 0.6  Not later than January 1, 2022, DOE issues final rule amending standards (if technologically feasible and economically justified) for products manufactured on or after January 1, 2025 or the date of final rule plus one year, whichever is later

14 83 years of excellence The Association of Electrical and Medical Imaging Equipment Manufacturers House Legislation: Section 211 (a) Outdoor high light output lamps  Each outdoor high light output lamp manufactured on or after January 1, 2017, shall have a lighting efficiency of at least 45 lumens per watt

15 83 years of excellence The Association of Electrical and Medical Imaging Equipment Manufacturers Senate Bill NEMA involved in intensive, multi-month negotiations on outdoor lighting provisions  Set efficiency levels on a Task LPW approach taking into account application issues Area, roadway and high-mast Decorative post-top and dusk-to-dawn  Include some control requirements  IES illumination levels  Provide tax incentives  Effective date of new standards  Provide for DOE to do follow-on rulemakings

16 83 years of excellence The Association of Electrical and Medical Imaging Equipment Manufacturers Outlook and Prognosis House and Senate legislation part of broad effort on energy and climate change H.R. 2454 passed June 26 S. 1462 could be considered this fall S. 1733 Kerry-Boxer climate change provisions Once Senate acts, House and Senate bills must be “conferenced” and a consensus bill approved
