LUXADD and the International Green Electricity Council are Joining Forces


Miami, FL (PRWEB) November 29, 2011

LUXADD and the International Green Energy Council (IGEC) are joining forces to spread the word about LUXADDs technology innovation and its energy saving potential in the area of linear fluorescent lighting retrofits – just in time for the T12 Lighting Phase-out. Starting July 2012, the Department of Energy (DOE) regulations will eliminate the most common T12 tubes. The replacement of 500 million T12 tubes will save the nation more than $ 10 billion in electricity.

Fluorescent lamps have become predominant for commercial and industrial lighting because of their superior energy efficiency and longer life compared to incandescent lights. Due to poor lumen foot-candle conversion and the high price point, LED is not yet the right product for linear commercial illuminations according to the DOE (Department of Energy). Unfortunately, most installed fluorescent T12 magnetic lighting system still waste at least 50% of input energy and uselessly heat up the environment. Newer lighting technologies like the T5 fluorescent tube can save up to 80% of lighting and air-conditioning energy. But new fixtures or ballast replacements are expensive and labor intense and many Government incentives have expired.

LUXADD holds a patent on the only retrofit technology that eliminates the entire transition process and makes retrofitting as simple as changing a light bulb with just one simple SNAP. This smart and provides the highest return on investment (ROI) in the market. The LUXADD Express T5 Retrofit Kit for T12 instantly lowers the energy bill up to 80% and reduces the carbon footprint by 60%.

We are the Nations only provider of a true labor free T12 to T5 retrofit solution made in the US for the US says Katrin M. Mehler, President of LUXADD LLC. It is our goal is to create new green jobs, promote a proper sustainable supply chain and ensure on site quality control. In the IGEC and Ralph Avallone we found the perfect partner to promote our mission.

It is amazing technologies like these that can put millions of Americans back to work, save businesses amazing amounts of money and if we were only to get behind companies like LUXADD, then we could restore Americas economy retrofitting one lighting fixture at a time while creating a better environment for our children proclaimed IGEC Secretary General, Ralph Avallone.

LUXADD LLC (http://www.luxadd.com) is a leading innovator in energy efficiency and conservation. LUXADD operates out of Miami and offers the only labor free retrofit solutions in linear fluorescent lighting that are tailor-made for the US and therefore provide the highest ROI in the market. Thriving for sustainability, LUXADDs products are made in the USA in effort to create new green jobs, promote a sustainable supply chain and ensure quality control. LUXADD instantly lowers the energy bill up to 80% and reduces the carbon footprint by 60%.The LUXADD technology has been available and used in Europe since 2001.

The International Green Energy Council – IGEC is an International advocacy association comprised of individuals and companies that promote “Green” (sustainable) forms of energy production, renewable energy sources, and sustainable design practices and advanced thinking in utilizing education and information for the promotion of being better stewards of our environment. The IGEC is comprised of renewable energy companies, developers, builders, material suppliers, subcontractors, consultants, lending institutions, utilities, installers, designers, manufacturers, engineers, inspectors, consultants and others involved in and out of the “green” community. If your company is interested in becoming a partner in this amazing new collaboration or if your company wishes to become a member of the IGEC please contact the International Green Energy Council at info(at)greenenergycouncil(dot)com

Grainger Sheds Some Light on the Lights Laws and Debunks Myths that Could Keep Organizations in the Darkish


Chicago, IL (PRWEB) November 15, 2011

As 2011 begins to come to an end, it is a good time for businesses to evaluate facility lighting and prepare for the U.S. Department of Energys energy-efficiency legislation that will go into effect in 2012. The legislation will mandate that lighting manufacturers cease the production of non-efficient lighting and related products, which will change the way facilities consume energy and maintain lighting. Grainger, North Americas leading broad line distributor of maintenance, repair and operating (MRO) products, debunks seven myths surrounding the lighting legislation and outlines some tools and resources that can help businesses ease into the transition.

There are plenty of myths out there that are causing some confusion and ambiguity surrounding the legislation, which could end up putting some businesses at a disadvantage, said, John McDermott, Brand Strategy Manager, Sustainability, Grainger. The lighting legislation is a unique opportunity for businesses to be more financially and operationally efficient, and facilities should embrace this shift and reap the benefits.

MYTH #1: The legislation wont impact commercial businesses as much as it will impact consumers.

FACT: The legislation will impact both residential and commercial buildings and soon! Effective January 1, 2012, standard 100W bulbs will require an increase of 30-percent in efficiency and can no longer be manufactured for sale in the U.S. The requirements will also apply to 75W (effective 2013), 60W and 40W (effective 2014). For fluorescent tubes and PAR bulbs, lighting that is found throughout most commercial buildings, the legislation is slated to go into effect on July 14, 2012.

MYTH #2: The only monetary return your business will get from making the switch to efficient lighting is the decrease in energy usage.

FACT: While energy and productivity savings from efficient bulbs are an obvious monetary benefit to making the switch, businesses can take advantage of utility rebates that may be available at the state and local level for additional savings. To find out what incentives are available in your area, visit http://www.dsireusa.org/, which lists information on state, local, utility and federal incentives and policies that promote renewable energy and energy efficiency.

MYTH #3: All lighting within a commercial facility will require costly retrofits to accommodate the shape and design of energy efficient lighting.

FACT: While a significant amount of lighting that is unique to a commercial building, such as fluorescent tubes and PAR bulbs, will need some kind of retrofit, not all types of lighting will require a full modification. Halogen and incandescent bulbs, for example, can simply be replaced by newer technology, such as CFL and LED bulbs, with no retrofit required.

MYTH #4: Making the switch to energy efficient LED lighting is very expensive and will put a financial strain on your business.

FACT: While LED lighting is more costly than its inefficient counterparts at the onset of installation, the return over time can be significant. Not only can your business experience the cost savings that come with reducing energy consumption, productivity levels may also increase as you will no longer have to address lighting maintenance as frequently due to the longer lifespan of LED replacement bulbs. No-cost resources are available to help you better understand the savings potential for your business such as savings calculators and estimators found at http://www.grainger.com/legislation.

MYTH #5: There is no rush to accommodate the legislation because you can stock up on your current inefficient lighting and wait until you run out — waiting will not add additional costs to your project.

FACT: Like any government incentive programs, the utility rebates that are currently available will not be available indefinitely. To help businesses prepare for the change, many lighting manufacturers and suppliers will also be running promotions and other incentives to purchase energy efficient lighting, which, similar to government incentives, may not be available once consumers and businesses adapt more widely to the legislation and efficient lighting becomes standard. When updating the lighting in your facility, consider taking an approach that will align with your budget and comfort level. For example, start by identifying and changing out those bulbs that do not require a retrofit.

MYTH #6: When evaluating lighting within your facility and determining the best way to approach the process, you are on your own.

FACT: While some facilities may have an in-house expert who is familiar with upgrading to energy efficient lighting, many businesses do not know where to start. There are third parties that specialize in retrofitting and can identify the magnitude of potential savings, layout a plan for the project and even execute the installation and apply for the appropriate utility rebates. An example of such a partner is Alliance Energy Solutions (http://www.alliance-energy.net/), a Grainger company, which assists facilities in adapting to the lighting legislation and helps businesses maximize their energy savings.

MYTH #7: The best way to dispose of inefficient, fluorescent lighting is just to toss it in the trash.

FACT: Because fluorescent bulbs contain mercury, they may pose an environmental hazard when disposed of improperly. The best way to dispose of inefficient lighting is through recycling and if there are no recycling centers or drop-off locations in your local area, you can purchase pre-labeled recycling kits that allow you to mail used bulbs to recycling centers to help ensure proper disposal.
