40 x T8 TUBE EXAMPLE • BASE CASE- TODAY’S ELECTRICITY COST • Energy savings that matter. • 40 fluorescent tubes (45W) are replaced with Ecoglow LED T8 tubes (18W). • Average on time was taken to be 12 hours a day, 5 days per week, 3,120 hours per year. • The LED T8 tube replacement results in a total saving of over $9,400 over a 10 year period. • Benefits: • Payback ~ 28 months • 60% energy and carbon reduction • Reduced replacement & maintenance costs • Note: No labour costs are included in these calculations. • Assumptions: • Electricity cost = $0.15 per kWh • 3,120 hours per year per T8 Tube • T8 cost – Fluorescent ($15) & LED T8 ($75) • Life expectancy (hours)– Fluorescent (3K), LED (50K) • Theoretical example – applications may vary.
10 x HIGH BAY EXAMPLE • SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS – ELECTRICITY COST +20% • Energy savings that matter . • 40 fluorescent tubes (45W) are replaced with Ecoglow LED T8 tubes (18W). • Average on time was taken to be 12 hours a day, 5 days per week, 3,120 hours per year. • The LED T8 tube replacement results in a total saving of over $10,400 over a 10 year period. • Benefits: • Payback ~ 23 months • 60% energy and carbon reduction • Reduced replacement and maintenance costs • Note: No labour costs are included in these calculations. • Assumptions: • Electricity cost = $0.18 per kWh - +20% INCREASE • 3,120 hours per year per globe • T8 cost – Fluorescent ($15) & LED T8 ($75) • Life expectancy (hours)– Fluorescent (3K), LED (50K) • Theoretical example – applications may vary.
