Recovery through Retrofit
With Energy Secretary Steven Chu by his side, U.S. President Barack Obama detailed stricter new lighting standards and promised the swift release of $346 million in Recovery Act funds to boost energy efficiency in new and existing commercial buildings and homes.
"I know light bulbs may not seem sexy, but this simple action holds enormous promise because 7 percent of all the energy consumed in America is used to light our homes and businesses," Obama said of the new rules that set higher thresholds for energy efficiency in lamps and lighting equipment.
According to the Department of Energy, the changes in lamps and lighting equipment would:
The DOE's release of $346 million in stimulus funds will go toward development and deployment of more energy smart buildings and the technology and equipment to support them.
Retrofitting and upgrading buildings so that they waste less energy benefits the middleclass in numerous ways: job creation; entrepreneurial and business opportunities; a healthier environment; and reduced business and home energy costs. The “Recovery through Retrofit” Interagency Working Group will work to make sure that the Recovery Act investments are just the first step in creating a new market for energy retrofits across America.
New England LED addresses the need for Sustainability and Renewable Energy for our communities, we therefore have designed our LED product to simply retrofit energy-inefficient, maintenance-intensive, HID vapor lighting fixtures while leveraging existing light poles, heads, casing and wiring.
Customers can upgrade their existing HID Pole lighting applications to LED with no waste and minimal incremental cost. If new poles are needed, we can supply a complete stand alone system including new, Hurricane designed poles for simple and fast take down before a storm.
Businesses can choose from an extensive line of Globaltech LED retrofit applications, including:
The software and hardware infrastructure extends the light quality and reliability of LED lighting technology, provides voltage balancing, and allows for fixture-by-fixture programmability.
New England LED Solar gives facility managers the ability to program illumination levels for each fixture based on clock time, motion detection, ambient light levels, temperature and solar storage availability thereby increasing businesses'ability to provide enhanced security for their customers and raise and lower illumination levels as needed in order to reap energy savings.
Our unique processor provides the intelligent interface between the solar battery, sensor and LED and the lighting application, ensuring the fixture's optimaluse of solar power while maintaining 100% reliability.
Our LED processor carefully manages the voltage and current driving the LED devices, controlling power spikes and maintaining LED longevity.
