NORTHBROOK, Ill., March 29 /PRNewswire/ -- UL Environment, Inc., a global leader in environmental evaluation and certification, today announced initiation of a collaborative effort to develop sustainability standards for indoor and outdoor lighting. These standards will assist consumers, designers, architects and building operators in identifying more sustainable options for interior and exterior light fixtures, LED modules and related lighting components. The standards will address entire luminaires, including reflector, aperture, outer shell and connection to a power source. The standards will be based on environmental assessment of a product's entire life cycle, from raw materials to manufacture, use and disposal.

"According to the U.S. Department of Energy, an average household dedicates 11 percent of its energy budget to lighting," said Stephen Wenc, president of UL Environment, Inc. "LED modules alone have potential to reduce lighting electricity demand in the U.S. by one third and deliver savings of $265 billion by 2027—but lighting solutions can go beyond energy and cost savings. This effort supports the development of more sustainable options for consumers based on a holistic evaluation of environmental performance in a variety of areas beyond efficiency."

UL Environment's sustainability standards will consider environmental elements such as energy efficiency and product materials, manufacturing process and recyclability. The standards will set minimum environmental requirements and create a progressive and tiered structure that makes it possible for manufacturers to highlight their sustainability achievements.

"Sustainability is a consideration of growing importance for lighting designers and engineers," said Terry McGowan, Director of Engineering for the American Lighting Association. "Companies have long embraced energy efficiency as an environmental benefit, but the industry has lacked guidance on how to develop and incorporate a truly sustainable option for lighting. This standards effort will go a long way towards defining the sustainability characteristics of our industry and all the industries that rely on lighting for operations."

Development of the standards will draw upon input from UL Environment's Standard Technical Panels (STPs) comprised of stakeholders such as manufacturers, government entities, non-governmental organizations and consumer interest groups.

This standards effort continues UL's lighting industry leadership, which includes the development and publication of LED Safety Standard UL 8750 in late 2009. UL Environment expects initial drafts of the lighting sustainability standards to be completed in 2010.

Increasingly more and more flexible devices are required, from flexible displays for e-readers, OLEDs and other types to flexible photovoltaics and beyond.
These devices require a conductor to close the layers of active materials, but that conductor needs to be transparent in applications such as displays and photovoltaics to allow light through

. Today, transparent conductive oxides are widely used for rigid devices but these will become more expensive due to rare materials used, and are inadequate for most flexible electronics applications where they can easily crack under little strain. Alternatives are sought.

The main materials available for this purpose are:

〇* Transparent conductive oxides (TCOs)

〇* Organic materials, such as the most common PEDOT:PSS

〇* Carbon nanotubes (CNT) and graphene
Each have trade-offs between conductivity, transmittance, and flexibility. Each can be patterned in different ways. While sputtering will remain an important and high-volume technology for coating of rigid substrates like glass, solution-based processes including printing and the use of organic and nanoparticle materials have already gained a lot of traction and are expected to dominate the market for the flexible applications within a few years. Significant new developments are being made with both the materials used and how they can be deposited. This report addresses the performance of the different options and profiles organizations around the world that are developing better solutions.



Balance of system (BOS) Providers

Until recently the electronics used in PV systems – inverters and Balance of System (BOS) components have been an overlooked and underinvested part of the solar ecosystem.

However, balance of system components (cabling, combiner boxes, racks, and design and installation fees) account for a large percentage of an array’s per-watt cost – and represent a substantial opportunity for reduction in up-front expenditures.

At Solar Science Group we understand that the BOS components are essential support elements and need to be considered when developing PV installations. Solar Science Group works closely with our BOS partners to develop systems that can be easily adaptable to the specifics of the project and provide the greatest performance.

[OMG] this guy is the PIED PIPPER of cheap internet traffic!!


Lets be honest here… In the last blog post I called this guy Kris the "Pied Pipper" of Internet traffic. Well… Over the last couple of days I have been watching his video course inside of the sneak peak members area here:

Unfortunately you won't be able to buy the course just yet. But give the guys over there a couple of days and everything will be ready.

Now… Let me tell you exactly why I think this guy is like the "Pied Pipper". After watching these videos I watched Kris set up a live and running campaign in LESS than 2 hours! Did you see the results for his efforts? SEE IT LIVE

The guy generated over 45,000 visitors to his website and he GRABBED 20% of them into an opt-in list. He basically played his magic flute and people did what he said… I WAS AMAZED.. I WAS SHOCKED… I WAS JEALOUS!…Correction… I AM JEALOUS!!

Can you imagine the possibilities if you could bring the masses into your website for pennies on the dollar and convert them into buying leads.

The most INCREDIBLE part is how he did it all… I don't know why I didn't think of this before.

He does have a couple of cheats though… two tools that really helped him create the campaigns in LIGHTNING SPEED. The URL scraper alone SAVED him HOURS of boring tedious work. Then he has a whole slew of templates that he can pick from. He really has done the necessary work in order to save time. And we all know that in this business TIME IS MONEY.

Check out the "proof" video he created. What you see in this video is from the work he did in the members area… THATS RIGHT… He takes members of this course through a real live case study… Unscripted… Edited only to cut out periods of silence… Then he places his FREAKISHLY AMAZING results for the world to see. Only allowing people inside of the course to gain the real knowledge in how he did it.

Check this out I guarantee you'll NEVER forget it.... (clickHERE

Weird 9179 subscribers, 45,000 visitors, $0.07 spent!!...

Ok so you have tried most paid marketing platforms such as ppc marketing adwords, media buying and what not. The affiliate marketer’s tool box for promotions is ever growing resulting in mass confusion. You will find more and more wannabe Gurus advocate the next best thing since sliced bread when it comes to making a quick buck online. If you've got more SEO tools than money coming in, it’s time to take a look at your marketing strategies and pay close attention.

Years ago adwords was king with most internet marketers trying to master adwords to make a killing in their niche. Some very smart marketers have made millions using PPC and adwords, Perry Marshall being the classic example.

The problem I see daily is that unless you know what you are doing with paid ppc you will see your campaign budget literally disappear overnight.

There is a science to adwords that not many people can master in a short period of time. Especially newbie’s who are setting up campaigns left right and centre.

With the hefty cost per clicks involved in any adwords campaign you need to be looking at the ROI you are getting for your troubles and money invested. The trouble here is keeping up with Google’s changing algorithms, constantly being slapped and sent to implement black hat underground techniques, which don’t work in the long run.

Yahoo MSN and Bing are following the trend. Although it's been said that MSN and Yahoo have great conversion rates. There is a better way of getting fast targeted results.

What if you knew of a secret marketing strategy that allowed you to buy traffic at insanely low prices? I’m talking cents here and not $10 dollars a click.

The Internet marketing industry is becoming more a more aggressive with thousands of people joining the online community every single day, backed by wannabe gurus who are teaching them that they can make quick money online. Leaving them out in the cold while they rake in 6 figure commission checks in their sleep.

Forget the Buzzword make money fast. The New Buzzword is Mass PPV at wholesale prices.

You can make money fast if you know the secret marketing techniques used by the real Gurus in the know, quite frankly you will not hear about their secret techniques that they use to rake in thousands of dollars a month. signup for our news letter to get the full story free or go to

    $0.60 Federal Tax Deduction per Square Foot!
    Bring a 75% Energy Savings and a (starts from)$0.20 to$.60 per sq. ft, AVG-Federal Tax deduction to American businesses, conserving more & improving quality of our workplaces and Natural Environment, with SMD LED Tube Lighting!

    Our LED Tubes save a combined total of 75% or more, with a savings for both the Tube and the Ballast. An equivalent of 45% is saved, compared to standard Fluorescent lighting, with the SMD LED Tubes alone.

    The Energy Policy Act of 2005 included a new tax incentive, to improve the energy efficiency of commercial buildings. The "Commercial Building Tax Deduction" establishes a tax deduction for expenses incurred for energy efficient building expenditures made by a building owner.

    * Buildings that save at least 50 percent of projected annual energy costs across all three system components are eligible for a tax deduction of $1.80 per square foot.

    ** Buildings that save a specified percentage of projected annual energy costs for one of the three components – building envelope (10 percent whole building energy savings), lighting (20 percent), or heating and cooling (20 percent) – are eligible for a $0.60 per square foot deduction.

    *** For lighting improvements that reduce lighting use by 25-40 percent and also employ dual switching (ability to switch roughly half the lights off and still have fairly uniform light distribution), the $0.60 per square foot may be prorated, ranging from $0.30 per square foot for 25 percent lighting energy savings to $0.60 per square foot for 40 percent savings.

    The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (HR-1424), approved and signed on October 3, 2008, extends the benefits of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 through December 31, 2013.

    Improve Lighting Systems:
    Improving your lighting systems is one of the first steps EPA recommends to increase the efficiency of your buildings whether you are retrofitting existing buildings or designing new buildings. This is not only because lighting upgrades are so cost effective, but also because less heat is generated from efficient lighting systems, affecting the proper sizing of more capital-intensive heating and cooling systems. As outlined in the ENERGY STAR Building Upgrade Manual, a strategy that combines efficient lighting technologies, controls, and appropriate light levels is the most effective approach to meeting energy efficiency goals, including those required to qualify for the partial tax deduction. Read the Lighting Section, helpful information for lighting, don't forget to jump ahead of the curve, be a forward leaning, lean and mean energy machine, update to our state-of-the-art SMD LED Tubes and save 75% over standard Fluorescent Tubes.

    You may qualify for a deduction of $0.60 per square foot if the lighting system employs dual switching (ability to switch roughly half the lights off and still have fairly uniform light distribution) and reduces installed lighting power by at least 25% from values specified in specific cited tables in ASHRAE Standard 90.1-2001. As lighting power reductions climb from 25% to 40%, the deduction is increased proportionally, up to $0.60 for a 40% power reduction (plus the dual switching).

    For a typical building, a lighting power reduction of 40% increases the building’s ENERGY STAR rating by about 10 points.

    Lighting consumes close to 35 percent of the electricity used in commercial buildings in the United States and affects other building systems through its electrical requirements and the waste heat that it produces. Upgrading lighting systems with efficient light sources, fixtures, and controls can reduce lighting energy use, improve the visual environment, and affect the
    sizing of HVAC and electrical systems.

    CONSULT A TAX PROFESSIONAL

    Confirm with your Tax Professional and take a (FROM)$.20to $0.60 per square foot deduction for improved lighting efficiency of 40% (with at switch that can turn off one/half of the lighting on command).

    Only a tax attorney or other related professional can provide tax advice.

    Q. What if my project cost exceeds the cap of $0.60/sq. ft.? How is the remaining cost treated tax-wise?

    A. The remaining costs can be depreciated and claimed normally. So a qualifying project in a 100,000-sq.ft. building with a cost of $100,000 and 40% lighting power density savings could be eligible to deduct $60,000 in the taxable year the lighting is placed in service. The remaining $40,000 could then be claimed normally (i.e., capitalized and depreciated).

    Q. What if a commercial building tenant performs a retrofit that would meet the energy savings, would they get the deduction?

    A. Unfortunately, as in many matters of tax law, the answer is not necessarily clear. The person who gets the Commercial Buildings Deduction is the person who owns the property for tax purposes.

    Although in many, if not most instances, a tenant improvement will revert to the landlord at the end of a lease, the property is not necessarily owned by the landlord for tax purposes. It is a question of fact, and the determination depends on the arrangements between the parties. If the tenant pays for the investment, constructs it according to its own specifications, and there are no concessions in the lease or from the landlord, it is likely that the tenant will be the owner of the improvements for tax purposes and eligible to claim the Commercial Buildings Deduction.

    Fortunately, this is a question that arose under the tax law before the enactment of the Commercial Buildings Deduction provision. In the case of tenant improvements, the tenant and landlord would have to determine who the tax owner is for purposes of claiming depreciation deductions in any event. The Commercial Buildings Deduction does not change that determination. The Commercial Buildings Deduction simply provides a more beneficial deduction that that normally provided by depreciation. Perhaps a tenant should come to an agreement, in advance, with the landlord about who get the deduction, or how it is to be shared, consult your tax professional.

    The analysis is the same regarding improvements in government buildings. If the contractor is the owner for tax purposes, it can claim the Commercial Buildings Deduction. Whether a private person can be an owner of property with respect to a government building under the applicable local law is a factor that would have to be taken into account in determining who the owner is for tax purposes.

    ATG LED Lighting Electronics donated their i Bright™ T8 SMD LED Tubes to Evergreen Community Charter School.
    The school installed i Bright™ LED to replace the conventional fluorescents. The retrofit installation is a great success from the feedback and test results listed below: Main installation is in the tutoring classroom.
    Additional installation is in the main office visiting area.
    Before retrofitting, the staffs were always complains of constant headaches from the overhead fluorescent s.
    And now they love the LED's and have no headaches or eye strain. The school also did some tests to make comparison between i Bright LED and conventional fluorescents.
    The tests were implemented as below:
    1) Energy Saving Direct draw readings were taken at the switch leg for a total energy use number in the tutoring classroom. The fluorescent s were an average draw of 36.6 watts per lamp, and 16.8 watts per lamp for the LED's. For what it’s worth, these energy savings earned the school a great rebate, cash in pocket to use however they want.
    2) Luminous Intensity Luminous intensity was tested by stationary light level readings. The average reading for the fluorescent s was 14.08 cd, and for the LED was 14.60 cd. About i Bright™ T8s iBright™ T8s LED Tubes are the next generation solution to replace conventional fluorescent light.
    They feature higher efficiency, more reliability compared to the common LED fluorescent lights on the market.
    With patented thermal control technology, and special designed aluminum housing, iBright™ T8s substantially achieves good thermal property and plays more stable performance and of course will last up to 50,000 hours compared to 5,000 hours from conventional fluorescent lights.
    iBright™ T8s is patented product; and the original chip and phosphor coating adopted for LEDs are both patented.
    Features & Benefits: -Patented product; -CE approved and RoHS compliant; -High quality SMD LEDs, of high efficacy (typical 90lm/w); -Great light quality and great heat dissipation; -High reliability; -Low maintenance cost;
    -Easy installation with no ballast & starter needed; -Energy saving with low power consumption; -Green and eco-friendly lighting source without mercury.

    Facebook | Solarsciencegroup Led Lighting: High-Brightness LEDs: Input Voltage and Forward Voltage

    Facebook | Solarsciencegroup Led Lighting: High-Brightness LEDs: Input Voltage and Forward Voltage
    Sources of input voltage for LED arrays come from batteries or
    power supplies that have a certain tolerance. An automotive
    battery, for example, may supply 8V to 16V depending on the load
    and the age of the battery. The "silver box" power supply inside a
    desktop CPU may supply 12V ±10%.
    High-brightness (HB) LEDs also give a range of forward voltage.
    A typical HB LED might be characterized at a forward current
    of 350 mA. The forward voltage of the LED when IF = 350 mA is
    specified with a range that includes a typical value as well as
    over-temperature maximum and minimum values. To ensure that
    a true constant current is delivered to each LED in an array, the
    power topology must be able to deliver an output voltage equal
    to the sum of the maximum forward voltages of every device
    placed in the string.
    Manufacturers bin their devices for color, brightness, and
    forward voltage. Binning for all three characteristics is
    expensive, and forward voltage is often the specification that
    is allowed to vary the most. Adding this to the shift in forward
    voltage as the LED die temperature changes gives rise to the
    need for constant-current regulators that have a wide range of
    output voltage.

    See Your Community in a Better Light
    Energy to operate street lights accounts for the majority of your operating budget. Why not let your street lights work for you to reduce energy and maintenance costs while creating jobs within your community.

    Easily retrofit to existing mounting systems, AGEC streetlights will also improve visibility, safety, and dependability creating a better environment for the entire community.

    * Reduce Your Cost

    * Create More Jobs

    * Increase Safety

    * Improve Service to Residents

    * Retrofit to a New Look

    Reduce Your Cost

    A lower total cost of ownership allows you to be flexible with your operating or capital expenses. With a typical energy savings of 40 to 60% , near zero maintenance costs, and fast payback help to free up funds for other high priority projects.

    AGEC Installations Create More Jobs

    Supply chain experts determined for every 100,000 units,AGEC and its suppliers would create approximately 227 jobs throughout the U.S. not to mention the jobs created to install each batch of AGEC streetlights in local communities.

    AGEC delivers higher quality light for improved color rendition and visibility. Patented technology delivers greater uniformity, eliminating dark spots between fixtures that help to create a safer environment for vehicle and pedestrian traffic.

    Improve Service to Residents

    It's predicted each AGEC streetlight will deliver more than 15 years of reliable service. With increased system reliability and significantly less outages, residents can enjoy uninterrupted service and a safer environment.

    Show the world your community is environmentally conscious and leading the charge to reduce energy demand and greenhouse gas emissions. LED technology helps you set the example, achieve sustainability goals and improve your community’s quality of life.

    HID vs. LED Retrofit to a New Look

    If retrofitting makes financial sense,AGEC can be installed onto existing mounting systems to replace traditional streetlights. AGEC streetlights can be installed in a matter of minutes saving your community time and money.

    Integrity is a Choice

    Systems are always going to be manipulated by some. That’s inevitable. What’s happening today is that manipulation has become part of the system. How unfortunate it is that the people that choose not to manipulate are the ones going against the grain. Integrity is going against the grain. How sad is that?

    .We don’t have to play the game, we can, we should, we must create a new game. Integrity is a choice. It’s not an easy choice. Conscious Capitalism is about making conscious choices.
