Dubal mulls shifting to LED lighting
Dubai Aluminium (Dubal), operator one of the world's largest single-site primary aluminium smelters, is evaluating the feasibility of converting its lighting system to energy efficient LED lighting, said a senior official.Philips LED business is inside of Philips lighting so it Led light is more difficult to determine whether they are meeting expectations.
“LED technology is not only well tested and proven to be extremely energy efficient but also has become more affordable,” added Tayeb Al Awadhi,Compact fluorescent lights have solved LED lighting supplier many of the problems associated with traditional filament light bulbs. vice president: power & desalination, Dubal.The replacement lighting we feel is far led downlight superior to that of the LED lighting. “The aim is to embark on plant-wide full scale LED lighting conversion at Dubal as soon as practicable.”
“Furthermore,In many ways LED lights compact fluorescent provide the best of both worlds. They are extremely energy efficient and environmentally friendly (and are, in fact, more environmentally friendly these energy-saving bulbs are mercury-free,While SmartView has been slow DSTT and unstable in the past, it seems to have improved greatly with recent updates. making them environment friendly during disposal.”
Dubal has also taken steps to minimize the air-conditioning load by setting the units’ thermostats to 24 degrees Centigrade during working hours and 27 degrees during non-working hours, with advisory stickers being pasted on every thermostat controller to remind users of the initiative.
In addition, a review is currently in progress to convert Dubal’s electrically-driven air-conditioning chillers to a much more efficient system using absorption chiller technology, Al Awadhi said.
“Being steam-driven, absorption chiller technology uses approximately 75 per cent less electrical power than conventional air-conditioning system,” explained Al Awadhi.
“Phase 1 of the project — which entails trialing absorption chiller technology at Dubal’s desalination control building — should begin by the end of 2011. Once operational, the absorption chiller is expected to reduce Dubal’s power consumption by approximately 2 million kWh per annum.”
Dubal will ensure that all unnecessary lights are switched off after working hours, wherever applicable; and that all computers/monitors are also switched off when employees leave after a shift at the office, Al Awadhi added.
“A dedicated committee has been formed within Dubal with the mandate to implement these and other energy-saving initiatives,” he concluded. – TradeArabia News Service
