18 6. User Acceptance and Light Quality A survey was conducted during the week of April 9-16, How satisfied are you with the overall performance of LED lighting? 100% very satisfied 2. How satisfied are you with the visibility improvement offered by the LED streetlights for you as a driver? 100% very satisfied 3. How satisfied are you with the visibility improvement offered by the LED streetlights for you as a pedestrian? 100% very satisfied 4. Do you feel that the new streetlights give off the right amount of light, or are they too bright or too dim? 100% Right amount of light

19 7. System Availability The availability of the overall system was derived from the availability of each component. All system components (LED luminaires, streetlight controllers, SmartServer and traffic/photocell sensors) demonstrated no failure during the post-installation monitoring. This implies 100% system availability.

20 8. System Reliability System reliability was measured by the amount of time the system performs as designed. Recorded data indicate that:! LED luminaires were switched ON at sunset;! LED luminaires were switched OFF at sunrise;! LED luminaires were dimmed at pre-selected times;! LED luminaires increased their intensity to 100% when foot/vehicle traffic was detected; and their intensity was gradually decreased to the previous level after a pre-set time.! The system was also function as expected during rain and snow. This implies 100% system reliability.

26 Contributions to DoD Energy and Water Goals!! We provide a technology demonstration to validate performance and operational costs and benefits of the demand-sensitive LED street lighting systems.!! We evaluate technology acceptance and get the technology ready to be transferred by working with NSWC Carderock Division.!! We provide field experience and implementation models that can be replicable in other DoD installations. 26

27 Issues/Lessons Learned (Site Access Permits)!! Restrictions on physical access to the site!! Visitors must be escorted in the base at all times.!! For a day-time visit, requests must be made one day in advance.!! For a night-time visit, requests must be made two weeks in advance.!! Restrictions on wireless communications!! There are certain restrictions on frequency band and power level to use for wireless communications within the base.!! Mesh network is not allowed.!! Restrictions on installation contractors!! Only electrical contractors with security clearance are allowed to perform the work.!! Restrictions on remote access from outside the base to the equipment!! Remote access from outside the base is not allowed.!! Data cannot be downloaded remotely.!! System cannot be monitored/diagnosed remotely. 27

28 Issues/Lessons Learned (Technical)!! Light intensity, light quality and uniformity and power consumption!! LED gives much better light quality and uniformity than HPS.!! LED provides an average saving of 75% of electricity compared to HPS.!! Communications!! There are interferences in power lines due to existing loads in the building (i.e., signals received by the controller have low S/N ratio). However, the smart server is designed to handle this issue.!! Communication range from traffic sensors (PIR) to the receiver is 2500 feet.!! In-rush current!! Streetlight controller exhibited some issues during switching the LEDs ON/OFF (i.e., switching relay inside the controller kept the lights on all the time). A new controller was designed and its use has prevented this problem from occurring.!! Photocell!! The client prefers all lamps to be controlled by one photocell to ensure all lamps come ON at the same time. This was provided. 28
