![]() Cities, Towns, and Municipalities can be more competitive and environmentally effective today by significantly reducing the costs and electricity consumption associated with the operation of Street Lighting. By replacing antiquated Street Lighting systems with high performance energy efficient Digital High-Intensity Discharge (DHID or Digital HID) Street Lighting, 50%+ less electricity is consumed and demanded from the power utilities. When considering the upgrade of an existing HID Street Lighting system or lighting for new Street Lighting or Parking Lot applications, DHID technology delivers the best return on investment; offering a low initial buying cost, excellent energy efficiency, high system performance, lasting and penetrating light quality, and really low maintenance/consumable cost benefits. Typical Return on Investment time for the retrofit/replacement of a Street Lighting system with a GloGreen DHID 70W or GloGreen DHID 150W Digital Ballast is 1-2 Years. Any existing core and coil (magnetic) ballast HID Street Lighting application can benefit immediately just by retrofitting the old magnetic ballast with a new GloGreen DHID ballast. From an environmental standpoint, by reusing the existing light fixture and lens assembly, less waste is created and money is saved since only a new ballast need be purchased, leaving only the old ballast to be recycled (we partner end-users with recommended magnetic ballast recycling companies). DHID's value-added features and performance make it the smart solution for any new Street Lighting or Parking Lot Lighting installation; it is the most cost-effective alternative to LED, and induction based technologies for new and retrofit Green lighting projects. Digital Ballasts offer unparalleled electrical efficiency and performance compared to conventional magnetic ballasts and outperforms LED and induction lighting in initial buying cost, energy efficiency, system performance, light quality, and maintenance/consumable costs. With an industry leading luminous efficacy of 116 Lumens/Watt, end-users can cost-effectively upgrade their conventional higher Wattage magnetic ballast HID Street Lighting or Parking Lot fixtures with a lower Wattage (half the Wattage) GloGreen Digital Ballast powered HID solution which offers brighter, longer lasting, penetrating light for a fraction of the electricity cost previously incurred with the magnetic ballast application. The new higher-performance, yet lower wattage DHID Digital ballasts or DHID powered Street Lighting fixtures reduce lighting electricity costs by 50%+. For example, a conventional 250W Metal Halide magnetic ballast powered Street Light can be retrofitted with the DHID 100W Digital Ballast offering an immediate and significant 187.5Watts/hr per fixture (65%) savings in electricity with brighter, longer lasting light. Add the ability to dim the Digital Ballasts, and even greater energy savings can be realized. Add Light Management Software (LMS1A) to control the lighting network wirelessly; dimming lights on demand or on set schedules, electricity operating expenses are reduced by 75%+. Application Examples:
Street Lighting Project – Pittsburgh, PA, USA.
Renewable Energy Lighting Applications:
Why DHID (Digital HID) is Preferred for Street Lighting and Parking Lot Lighting Projects Over LEDWhen selecting a Street Lighting or Parking Lot Lighting system, significant consideration should be given to the performance, cost, and life expectancy of the solution. Given the poorer lumens per Watt rating, high initial price, high consumable expense and realistic wear data of LED’s, end-users determined the DHID solution to be the better value.
