LED – Fluorescent Comparison

Dimming Comparison
Fluorescent Lighting
 Dimming efficacy poor and
worsens over dimming curve
 Requires dimming ballast - up to
$150/fixture installed
 Dimming shortens lamp life
 FL lifetime 7,000-50,000 hours
 Bulbs are hazardous material

LED Lighting
 LED efficacy improves dramatically
when dimmed and no dimming
ballast required
 Dimming, on/off lengthens LED life
 Major LED suppliers are increasing
life estimates from 50,000 to
100,000 hours
 Redwood extends LED life to over
100K hours by running less than
100%, dimming, turning off

LED Light Quality Closer to Natural
Sunlight

Full Spectrum - Closer to natural sunlight


High Color Rendering Index (CRI) >85 @ 4000K

Case Study: Space Optimization
at Facebook

Used in Menlo Park campus to


show presence in conference rooms
Occupancy data sent via Open
Application Framework to Facebook
floorplan app
Productivity - reduced employee
time to find open meeting room from
several minutes to 3 seconds
Space utilization – data showed low
utilization of large conference rooms
leading to reduction in number of
larger rooms by 60%

Case Study: Occupancy-Based
HVAC Control

Moved HVAC from
