the world in your hands

It is true that the initial cost of switching to “green products” does seem to put a dent in to our pockets but if you actually work out the long term benefits and costs in the majority of cases the benefits out way the negatives.

With most LED light bulbs there can be up to 90% saving on energy consumption with up to 50 times more life span than traditional incandescent light bulbs and of course these LED light bulbs are more environmentally friendly so a bonus as well.

What many people do not realise is that alot of heat is given off from incandescent buld and as a consequence if you have airconditioning that is having to work harder, using up more energy to cool the area down.

By dropping wattage from traditional 60 watt to LED 7 watt with similar light display then heat loss greatly reduced.

Our Goal is to promote the best lamp for our clients requirements.

We have a extensive range of lighting products to provide the best solution. Primarily, we look to LED energy bulbs and direct replacements products but each project has its own merits and some times alternative lamps are best suited.

LED –Offers the most efficient lighting solution in terms of energy                  consumption with savings up to 80%.

Lifespan approx 50,000 hours CFL – smaller version of full fluorescent lamps and consisting of a glass tube coated with phosphor, filled with gas and a small amount of mercury.

CFL’s are 80% cooler than incandescent and 4 times more efficient. Not as energy saving as LED but great improvement on incandescent. Lifespan approx 20,000 hours

LED  lighting can reduce electricity needs by more than 60%.

The key to switching to LED lighting is reduced power consumption. With correct design, an LED circuit will realise approximately 80% efficiency, in a nutshell this means 80% of the electrical energy is converted to light energy. The remaining 20% is lost through heat energy. When you compare this with incandescent lamps which operate at about 20% efficiency with a staggering 80% of the electrical energy being lost as heat.  Furthermore, LED do not cause heat build-up, producing only 3.4btu’s per hour, compared to up to 88btu’s for incandescent.

If we translate LED vs. incandescent in to a financial example, a 100 Watt incandescent is used for 12 months, with electrical cost at 33fils/kilowatt per hour, in total AED 290 will be spent on electricity costs. Out of that AED290 cost, used to heat the room, not lighting the room. The same example for LED with 80% efficiency being used, the electricity cost would be AED 44  per 12 months – This would give a saving of AED 246  over the 12 months.

The true savings are actually much higher, when you take into account that traditional lamps need to be replaced more frequently, usually within a year, and this involves man power and maintenance costs. Added to the time element that an area will not be lit due to contractual obligations. For example, many buildings do not allow repairs to be carried out when public areas are open so maintenance carried out in limited quiet period or closed period.

FM managers need to be looking at the bigger picture when analysing the true cost of energy saving with LED, the obvious figures start with the lights themselves but take that further and calculate the saving for the Cooling and Chilling Systems installed, with LED less heat is generated which naturally results in less power having to work the cooling appliances.
Companies have a responsibility to reduce their energy consumption and carbon footprint. This can be achieved in various ways but RWN promotes LED lighting as a start. By taking minor steps such as swapping from traditional incandescent to LED up to 80% of your light energy costs could be saved.

At present the draw back to switching to LED has been the initial cost but the efficiency and cost effectiveness of LED lighting systems will drive demand for more affordable LED lights. Irrespective of cost there are still tremendous financial and energy savings to be achieved.

The need to switch to sustainable energy solutions is never more so

 an issue than for UAE as demand out strips demand on a regular

basis. Lighting represents 22% of electricity usage in the Middle

East and this is a much higher statistic than anywhere else in the

world. If GCC consumers switch their homes to more efficient

solutions this will save up to US$ 400 million and 5.1 megatons

 in carbon dioxide emissions annually. By switching to LED lighting

 solutions this is a first step to be making a difference.
