LED Technology for efficient Illumination
Team Element
1
Project Scope
Imagining Indiana as the “Lighting Innovation Hub”• Increasing the adoption of the LED lights with businesses,
government and consumers.• Launching a consulting company for lighting solutions.• Recruiting from Indiana’s top schools to drive down costs of LED
technology and develop next generation lighting solutions through advancements and breakthroughs.
• Creating center of excellence for light innovation in major engineering programs.
• Attracting major lighting manufacturers such as GE and Sylvania. • Creating jobs in R&D, manufacturing, consulting and installation.
2
Energy Usage
• Based on estimates from Alliance to Save Energy– 22% of U.S. electrical demand is from lighting
• Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007– Will phase out the manufacturing of incandescent light bulbs
from 2012 to 2014– Effectively makes the Compact Florescent Light (CFL) the new
standard– Requires all lighting in Federal buildings to use Energy Star
products

What Is An LED?
• Light Emitting Diode (LED)– Invented by Nick Holonyak, Jr. in 1962– Electroluminescence occurs when a semiconductor
diode is turned on • This allows for electrons to recombine with holes
– Energy is then released in the form of light – Color is determined based on energy gap of the semiconductor
– First LEDs only emitted dim red light– New technology allows for high brightness along the
color spectrum

LED Benefits
• Efficiency – 80 percent less energy used• Less thermal waste – lower cooling costs• Durable – solid state shock resistant• Longer life – 25,000 to 100,000 hour utility• Environmentally friendly – no mercury to dispose of• Guarantee – 3 years if Energy Star certified• Instant on – no warm up time• Ability to dim

LED Lighting
Technology Proven light source of 20+ years Emerging technology that holds great promise to revolutionize lighting over the next decade
Energy Use 75% less energy than incandescent fixtures At least 75% less energy than incandescent fixtures and getting more efficient all the time
Cost Typically more expensive than incandescent fixtures ($)
Typically more expensive than fluorescent fixtures ($$)
Lifetime ≈9 years (Based on 3 hours of use/day) 22+ years (based on 3 hours of use/day)
Warranty 2-year warranty 3-year warranty
Fixture Types Available in many decorative stylesCurrently available in select fixture types including recessed cans, under cabinet lights, & porch lights
Replacement Bulbs Special "pin-based" bulbs available for replacement
LEDs are part of the fixture and typically not replaceable
On/Off Time Typically less than 1 second to turn on and up to 3 minutes to reach 80% brightness Instant on
Heat Output Cooler than incandescent Cooler than fluorescent
Recycling Contain a small amount of mercury and should be recycled
Contain electronic parts and should be recycled (like computers or cell phones)

LED Applications
• Early applications were as indicator lights on laboratory testing equipment– Later LEDs were utilized for radios, phones,
calculators, and other electronic devices• Currently LEDs are used in:
– automobile lights, signs, traffic lights, street lights, parking garages, architectural lighting (home light bulbs and fixtures) and flashlights
• Opportunities exist for future applications
8
Macro Impact
• Eliminating incandescent bulbs completely would save $18 billion per year (equivalent to the output of 80 coal plants)
• If every United States household changed their five (5) highest-use light fixtures (or the light bulbs in them) to Energy Star certified lighting, Americans would collectively save more than $6 billion (or $60/household) every year in energy costs

Five Forces Analysis: LED Lighting Industry in Indiana
External: - Incandescent lighting - CFL Lighting providers - Foreign LED producers - Other US statesInternal: - Indiana’s non-LED business
Related Service Providers: - Incandescent bulbs - CFL lighting providersForeign Players: - Foreign LED Companies - Manufacturers in other US states (Eg. Silicon Valley)
Direct: - CFLIndirect: - Alternative energy lighting - Building/engineering re-design for natural light use
- Light innovation labs- Current LED producers (GE, Sylvania etc)- Lighting installers- Engineering institutions - Maintenance and Services
Customers- Institutions, Corporations- Homeowners- Government agenciesChannels- Government agencies- Green groups

Challenges of LED Adoption
• Initial cost - the use of LED lighting has a high initial capital cost when compared to conventional lighting
• Current lighting industry clout – as incandescent bulbs are phased out, CFL will be natural replacement
• High temperature sensitivity• Light output from LEDs is directional leading to a more
complicated fixture design
11
Construction Requirements• Federal, State, and Municipal Standards
• Although these standards vary according to the region, LED lighting does not pose a challenge to building codes.
• Retrofitting Existing Structures• Large initial capital investments will need to be made in order to change over
to LED. • New Construction
• Utilizing LED technology will have long-term benefits in the areas of safety & security, cost reduction and energy consumption.
12
Why Indiana?• R&D
– Existing universities with strong research capabilities
– Availability of stimulus funds– Ability to partner with existing
institutions like the Richard Lugar Center for Renewable Energy
• Manufacturing– Strong manufacturing infrastructure.– Large manufacturing workforce
availability due to automotive crisis
• Installation– New state requirements of building
codes– Large manufacturing workforce
availablity due to automotive crisis
• Logistics– Crossroads of America
• Indiana’s strategic objectives– Aligns with Indiana’s energy policy– IEDC successful in attracting businesses
and FDI– Budget surplus
13
Tax Incentives
• Commercial Lighting Tax Deduction– The Energy Policy Act of 2005 created the Energy
Efficient Commercial Buildings Deduction, which allows building owners to deduct the entire cost of a lighting or building upgrade in the year the equipment is placed in service, subject to a cap
– Eligible for tax deductions of as much as $1.80 per square foot.
14
What Indiana is already doing?
• Indianapolis is eligible to receive $8,032,300 over the next two years as part of the EECBG program funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act
• LED Street Lighting Pilot Projects - $800,000 High-efficiency LED street lighting projects will be installed at various locations where replacement street lighting is needed.
• LED Traffic Signal Retrofits - $2,503,900 Currently, only 370 of the city's 1,100 intersections have LED traffic signals. This activity proposes to retrofit the remaining 730 intersections to LED.
