Street Lights: Energy Use & Emissions

• 1.3% of all end-use electricity in the EU251

• .9% of all end-use electricity in the USA2

• 66 TWh and 36 MT CO2e in Europe & USA3

• Up to 37% of a municipality’s greenhouse gas emissions4

Outdoor Lighting Program

The Retrofit Opportunity

Catalysts

• Rising energy prices

• Climate change goals

Enablers

•Emerging technologies• LED• Induction• Control Systems

• Competitive financing

• Reduced energy bills

• Avoided greenhouse gas emissions

• Reduced maintenance costs

• Decreased light pollution

• Enhanced visibility and performance

Near-Term Benefits

Page 9: Introduction to CCI; Outdoor Lighting Program   Retrofit Opportunity

Potential for 35-70% Energy Savings

Outdoor Lighting Program

• Lower energy costs

» 35-60% savings vs. high-pressure sodium vapor fixtures

» 70% savings vs. mercury vapor fixtures

» 10-20% additional savings with controls

• Lower maintenance costs

» Luminaire life expectancies significantly longer

» Integrated system controls help optimize maintenance delivery

• Reduced GHG emissions» For a city with 150,000 streetlights,

potential to avoid >40,000 tons of CO2e/year

Outdoor Lighting Program

• Total Street Lights: 16,500

• Fixture Wattages (HPS)» 150W — Residential» 250W — Collector

Roadway» 400W — Arterial

Roadway

Page 12: Introduction to CCI; Outdoor Lighting Program   Retrofit Opportunity

Total Capital Outlay

$2,199,471

Annual Savings $350,000

Energy Efficiency >50%

Payback Period 7 Years

Net Cumulative Cost Savings

$2,837,390

Anchorage LED Retrofit Program: Phase I

Outdoor Lighting Program

• Phase I Key Figures• Phase I Retrofit» 4,200 150W and 250W HPS Fixtures

Page 13: Introduction to CCI; Outdoor Lighting Program   Retrofit Opportunity

Resident Survey of New Fixtures

Outdoor Lighting Program

Residents overwhelmingly approved white light over existing high-pressure sodium system

• Two Resident Surveys: March and December 2008 » 130 male and female residents ages 17-71 » Tested 2 kinds of white light technology » Also tested dimming systems / centralized control

Obstacles Particular To Street Lighting Projects

Outdoor Lighting Program

• Concerns about efficacy of new technology

• Limited budget for large projects

• Standards do not fully capture benefits of new technology

Page 17: Introduction to CCI; Outdoor Lighting Program   Retrofit Opportunity

Retrofit Roadmap

Define High-Level Project Goals

Conduct System Audit

Select replacementtechnologies

*Plan and deploy a small scale pilot test

Conduct detailed economic analysis

Craft business case for full-scale

implementation

Navigate local approvals process

Evaluate existing equipment and define opportunities for system improvement

Review projects that have tested and deployed these technologies

Include objective and subjective evaluations *Optional, if no other tests are

relevant.

Conduct assessment of local finance options available to your municipality or

utility

Analyze various proposals for financing and realizing a retrofit

Generate final requirements, purchasing specifications, and finalize finance plan

Commit to goals, timeline, and necessary staff resources
