Prismalence AB in association with Nordic Light AB, have developed our LED road lighting fixtures for lighting systems with low total cost for their lifespan.

These rugged units are very efficient, casting a wide pool of light via our patent lens system. The light is much whiter than conventional units, so people can see a loat better.

Proven benefits with this new technology (Figures for Cobra tests):

Direct savings:
 

• 50-70% in reduced power consumption
• 50-70% reduction of Co2 emissions (based on Co2/KWh according to Nordic Electrical Power production).

Indirect savings:
 

• Reduced maintenance and installation cost due to fewer light poles (if using the 162° optics).
• Reduced installation cost due to smaller power cable.
• Reduced maintenance cost due to light weight and maintenance friendly luminary
• Huge Co2 reductions can be achieved by changing street lights.
• No mercury used in the light sources

By changing a standard 70W HPS street luminaire (which burns an average of 3800 hours per year) to a Prismalence CDM 35W, a Co2 reduction of 57kg is achieved. This corresponds to the emissions made by a modern car driving 438km (according to the new EU norm of 0.13kg Co2/km). 

By changing a 125W Hg luminaire to a Prismalence CDM 35W, a Co2 reduction of 147kg is achieved. This corresponds to the emissions made by a car driving 1130km.

The calculations above are made with a Co2 emission value of 0.43 kg/KWh, which is an average for European electrical power production.
