ADDITIONAL SAVINGS RESULTING FROM USING FLUORESAVE SYSTEM
In addition to direct savings resulting from lower consumption of power:
The life of lamps is longer up to 25% because they are working through longer periods of time in lower voltage and thus lower and more stable temperature; this in addition decreases cost of buying new lamps and utilizing the used ones.
Lower costs of installing as there is no need to change existing lighting system, modifying the building itself, or connecting and later servicing eletronic ballasts installed in every single fixture hanging on the ceiling.
The unit works as additional compensating system correcting cos.ø and consumption of passive power and increases the total energy savings sometimes by 50%.
No future cost of supervising, controlling and servicing as the unit does not break down as it does not have changeable parts. The maintenance costs decrease by 70%.
The exploitation of the unit is perfectly safe. No danger.
The unit is environmentally friendly and decreases the consumption of electric power thus decreasing emissions of CO2 in the power stations producing electricity.
The unit is environmentally friendly and decreases the consumption of electric power thus decreasing emissions of CO2 in the power stations producing electricity.
Industrial groups manufacturing electric power and using or leasing out larger numbers of Fluoresave units and therefore decreasing emissions of CO2 have the right to recalculate their balances of emissions. One D 32 A unit may save as much as 8.29 tons, D20 A unit 5.18 tons and D12 A unit 3.11 tons of CO2 emmisions. (Additional informations on request).
In some countries installing Fluoresave units is considered as a very important element decreasing energetic balance of the country and is therefore subsidized by special government programs and ESCO type credits. For instance:
Singapore – special bank credits finance installing Fluoresave by a government owned company installing Fluoresave units to the end users. The costs of installing is paid off from achieved savings on the electricity bills. Similar programs are implemented in other countries.
Republic of South Africa - the Fluoresave units are exclusively bought and installed by the government owned largest electric energy distributor in the world.
Vietnam – 40 % of the costs of purchasing Fluoresave units are reimbursed by the tax office upon presenting purchasing invoice.
Australian Government announced on February 10th, 2007 that by 2009 the energy consuming bulbs will be replaced by fluorescent lighting. Fluoresave units are important element in this programme.
The Governor of California announced that by 2012 the bulbs are to be replaced by fluorescent lighting and LED diods.
The Government of Germany is at present elaborating a similar program. So does the European Union.
New CE Directives are being elaborated and will be implemented not only by governments of affiliated countries.
