Introduction

LED Saving and Benefits Analysis Addresses the costs, savings and benefits
LED is replacing all lighting – some interesting facts.

Malaysia Lighting Energy Consumption

 
18.7 billion kWh*

Lighting uses 20% of the world’s energy.

By 2014, 50% of new lights will be LED;
By 2030, almost every light will be LED based.

*Base on report Malaysia Total yearly energy Consumption Is 93.8 billion kWh
Efficiency

Buildings : the main source of energy saving

LED Lighting Solutions

LED lighting is a rapidly evolving technology

Lighting accounts for the largest portion of a commercial building’s electricity bill and a significant
portion of the total energy bill. Lighting consumes close to 20 percent of the electricity used in
commercial buildings in Malaysia. It affects other building systems through its use of electricity
and its production of waste heat.

With LED lights, did you know:

• Reduces energy costs
• Reduces maintenance costs
• Reduces cooling costs,
• Is guaranteed
• Offers convenient features
• Is durable
 
Energy & Lifespan Comparison
Comparison between T8 Fluorescent vs T8 LED on Energy consumption and lifespan

T8 Fluorescent Consumption T8 Fluorescent Tube Lifespan

36w >8,000 hours
+6w loss

However the actual lifespan of the T8 Fluorescent lamps, the cost of

Maintenance should be much higher. Standard Fluorescent tubes are rated
at 15,000 hours or less.

T8 LED Consumption T8 LED Tube Lifespan

18w <40,000 hours
LED tubes are rated to last well over 40,000 hours and does not permit regular
maintenance services.
Energy Consumption
Based on 24 hours operations for 10,000 lamps annual consumption and electricity bill

T8 Fluorescent Annual Consumption Annual Bill

3,679,200kWh RM1,125,835.20*

T8 LED Annual Consumption Annual Bill

1,664,400kWh RM 482,500.80*
*Base on TNB Tariff Rate @ RM0.306 kWh

Annual Energy Saving

2,014,800kWh $ RM 643,334.40
T8 LED lighting system provide at least 50%-60% of energy saving on the consumption
and billing against T8 Fluorescent lighting system.
Maintenance Estimation
Based on annual replacement estimation for 10,000 Units of T8 Fluorescent lighting

Replace and Maintenance of T8 Tubes, Ballast, Starter,
