T Bar M Dairy Ranch Durant, OK

18,000 lumens 10,000 lumens

Dairy Project

• A high-bay conversion of 250 watt metal halide to 120 watt LED in a dairy freestall barn

• Project goals:

• Measure energy usage

• Worker satisfaction

• Monitor animal health

Project Results- Dairy

• 10 LED fixtures from Lektron

• 55% energy savings

• 30% increase in illumination

• 4 year payback based on energy savings and reduced maintenance

Robinson Family Farms

• 380,000 pigs per year

• 462 sows farrowing at a time

• Existing fixtures: CFLs

• Project goals:

• Measure energy usage

• Power quality measurements

• Worker satisfaction

• Monitor animal health

Swine Farrowing Barn

Before: 26 Watt CFL After: Agrishift 15 Watt

Retrofit 24 CFL bulbs (left) with LED lamps (right)

Project Results- Swine

• 30 W CFLs replaced with 15 W LED

• 50% energy savings

• Less glare than CFL

• No disposal issues--- Very important

• 7 year payback based on energy savings and reduced maintenance

Lessons Learned

• Focus group feedback is key

• Test multiple lamps from multiple LED vendors and incumbent tech

• Payback is important but comfort and societal benefits are also considerations

ADAPTIVE LIGHTING

A lighting system that responds to the environment in determining the brightness, temperature, and color of light, using occupancy detection and current light levels.

Using a light sensor unit will be set on a table or the area to be illuminated. These sensors will wirelessly transmit to a microcontroller which will control ceiling-mounted LEDs. The feedback from the sensors will keep the desired color and intensity at the area of interest, so that if there is sufficient sunlight, the LEDs need not consume as much power

The Future of LEDs

Residential Motion Sensor

Why pay for electricity you're not using? The Bug Plug's eyes are motion sensors; when they don't sense you moving in the room for several minutes, the device will automatically turn off the electronics connected to it by a power strip.

Electric Piggy Bank

The Power-Hog is a piggy bank with a unique twist--kids feed it coins and it doles out 30 minutes of electricity. Would they play video games all night if they knew it would cost a week's allowance?

Residential or Commercial

Do you sometimes forget to turn off the lights? No problem--the Blink plug will do it for you. Its rotating eye senses natural sunlight, then turns off devices like fans in the morning and turns on nightlights at dusk.

Power Over Ethernet = POE

Power over Ethernet or PoE describes a standardized system to pass electrical power along with data on Ethernet cabling. This allows a single cable to provide both data connection and electrical power to such devices as network hubs or closed-circuit TV cameras.

• Security Cameras • Network Routers • Lighting Controllers

The Future for LED Lighting

Just a few years ago, the industry said: “LEDs will continue to be a niche market and will never be a full lighting option - fluorescent & incandescent will dominate”

Today: “LED fixtures and bulbs are major market players and - fluorescents & incandescent are becoming the niche market”

Handy Tool

• How can you tell if a fluorescent

lamp has:

• magnetic or electronic ballast?

Energy Efficiency Is NOT Risky Business!
