Energy investments that pay back

Lighting retrofits are one type of upgrade that has been embraced by CHIP Hospitality. The company is replacing the ballasts and lamps of all the lights that are on 24 hours a day, seven days a week, giving careful consideration to the color of the light needed for the room in which it is being used. All incandescent lighting has been replaced with compact fluorescents. In particular, in spaces where dimmers are needed, incandescents were replaced with energy-saving Genura 23-watt lights from the General Electric Company. As other lights burn out, the hotels are replacing them with these energy-saving lights.

By making these upgrades and turning off unnecessary lights, CHIP Hospitality's hotels are saving about 1 million kilowatt hours annually, or about 10 percent of total electrical use. That works out to savings of $600,000 a year. The lighting retrofits cost $750,000 for a payback period of 15 months.

A Carbon Reduction Plan: The Savings

By investing in new technology or adopting approaches already available, we could cut worldwide greenhouse gas emissions by about 38 billion tons a year. The money saved from efficiencies in how we use energy could help pay for improvements in how we generate energy, optimize industrial processes and avoid deforestation.

Clovis Unified School District

In January 2003, when the California Vehicle code was revised with regard to school bus signals and school stops, the Clovis Unified School District noticed an “alarming increase of “red light runners’ at their school bus stops.

The Clovis Unified School District’s (“CUSD”) solution was the installation of CRS’ G2 Fusion LED Warning Light System on their buses. To determine their effectiveness CUSD conducted a two month long survey.

In the first month prior to installation of the G2 Fusion LEDs, they recorded an average of 11 motorists per day that ran the red lights at one of their bus stops. In the next month, after they had installed the G2 warning lights, red light running incidences dropped 91%.

‘”Without a doubt,” the CUSD director of transportation reported, “the G2 system provides our student an increased safety level while loading or unloading at our bus stops.”

They implemented an aggressive plan to outfit as many of their buses with the G2 system as possible. Two years later the CUSD reported that the effectiveness of the G2 system in deterring red light runners had not diminished.

In 2008, further surveys continued to demonstrate the reduction of incidences of 90%. The CUSD reports that their drivers made specific requests to operate the G2 equipped buses and that “even during these difficult budget times, we plan to continue to retrofit the remaining bus fleet with G2 Fusion LED Warning Systems as well as specifying the G2 System on all of our new school bus orders.”
