| Description | New and emerging lighting technologies, such as LEDs (light-emitting diodes), can improve lighting quality while reducing maintenance and energy costs. The Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA), with support from the Department of Energy's (DOE) Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP) and the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (operated for DOE by Battelle Memorial Institute), demonstrated the use of LED lighting in a large freezer storage room and fiber optic lighting in a series of vertical reach-in display freezer cases at the Fort George G. Meade Commissary. The LEDs reduced lighting energy use by 85% and reduced maintenance requirements. The fiber optic lighting system reduced lighting energy use by 56%. |
