Title New Brunswick - Replace incandescent flashing warning lights |
Project Identifier R-AAA-0067 |
||
---|---|---|---|
Project Description The Department of Transportation will replace 386 incandescent flashing warning light units (suspended lights at intersections, flashing lights on roadside signs, median lights, navigation beacons, etc.) with energy-efficient light-emitting diode units, or LEDs, throughout New Brunswick. When completed, it had been initially estimated that the project would result in annual savings of 170,000 kilowatts. Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are solid-state devices that convert electric energy directly into light of a single color. Because they employ "cold" light generation technology, in which most of the energy is delivered in the visible spectrum, LEDs don't waste energy in the form of non-light producing heat. In comparison, most of the energy in an incandescent lamp is in the infrared (or non-visible) portion of the spectrum. As a result, both fluorescent and HID lamps produce a great deal of heat. |
