| Project Description: |
Lighting Upgrade. This project exchanged all the metal halide lamps in the Fairgrounds exhibit building with florescent fixtures. The lights were also installed with dimmers; daylight harvesting was used around the interior perimeter of the building. |
| Estimated Energy Savings: |
$5,969 annually (equivalent to less than a 5-year payback). |
| Actual Energy Savings Achieved: |
Actual direct reduction in electrical usage in the eight months since the project has been completed is better than projected, with savings so far of 100,000+ kwh (kilowatt hours), or about $5,580. |
| Cost Savings: |
Based on actual savings observed, annual savings are estimated at $8,000 (equivalent to a less than 4-year payback). |
