Innovative solutions for outdoor lighting: White light
1. “White light – just a
choice of color or more?”

2. The case for white light
Horrible colour appearance & no colour rendering
Poor lumen maintenance ( SOX )
High control gear losses “
Useless photometrically “
Outdated by white light developments
Also, poor visual performance under this light colour

4. Improvements in white light
technology:
Efficacy - more Lumens for less Watts
Better Lumen maintenance
Longer life
Electronic control gear
More stable white colour

5. Three Key Points...
1. Quality not Quantity
2. Spectral Distribution critical to Vision
3. Optical system efficiency with LEDs
far higher than with HID
6. And actually a fourth point:
(not strictly to do with white light)
4. LEDs are beautifully controllable
- both optically
- and with dimming
7. Mesopic Vision
Sometimes known as „Twilight Vision‟,
occurs in a narrow illuminance band
corresponding to Eh = 5–30 Lux.
Coincides closely with BS5489 / EN13201
urban/residential.
Vision enhanced under blue-rich white light
with good colour-rendering light sources (ie.
better than CRI 60)

8. SON vs Metal Halide
ILLUMINANCE 60% LESS
Thanks to Venture Lighting
Costco Liverpool HPS (2200K CRI 20) White Metal Halide (5000K 90 CRI)
600 W SON 365 Watt, 39% energy reduction
9. Facial Recognition
White light significantly better for facial
recognition than yellow Sodium light
About 60% less white light needed

15. White Light LEDs
White LEDs 8400 Lm 75 CRíI HPS 21000 Lm 22 CRI
Better visibility with 60% less light!

17. Dynamic Power Management
(DPM)
• Ambient lighting level “simmers“ at low level (i.e.10-20%)
• Sensors trigger higher levels when required
• LEDs perfect for this application
• Energy savings up to 85% compared w static operation
• Less thermal stress on system gives even longer LED life
• Application now moving to radar sensors for road lighting
• New sensor technology will widen applications

Editor's Notes
Electronic Light Sources - solid stateBetter at cool colours (4000 – 6000K) good for Mesopic vision Emit less heat but very temperature – sensitiveFar superior optical performance – integral optics etcSmoothly and instantaneously dimmable - ideal for DPM applicationsDimming range (0 – 100%) far better than HIDIncredibly long life ( up to 80,000 hrs to L85)Optimum flux utilisation offers big energy savingsHuge maintenance benefits leads to lowest TCO despite higher capex
GE’s solutions have been designed to integrate and harmonise with the aesthetics of a modern office environment and provide soft, even illumination of all surfaces.Short discussion surrounding each bullet point… 5 mins on this slide only and then invite to move through the stand
