Key Terms
VARIABLE FREQUENCY DRIVE (VFD)
Automated speed control for electric
motors like fans, pumps and centrifugal
chillers for precise control and energy savings
Full Spectrum Lighting
A marketing term, typically associated with light
sources that are similar to some forms of natural
daylight (5000K and above, 90+ CRI), but sometimes
more broadly used for lamps that have a smooth and
continuous color spectrum.
T8 Lamp - Industry nomenclature for a fluorescent lamp that is
8 one-eighths of an inch in diameter(i.e., one inch diameter). A
T12 lamp is 12 one-eighths or 1.5 inches in diameter.
Scotopic / Photopic
(S/P) Ratio
This measurement accounts for the fact that of the
two light sensors in the retina, rods are more sensitive
to blue light (pcotopic vision) and cones to yellow light
(photopic vision). The pcotopic/photopic (S/P) ratio is
an attempt to capture the relative strengths of these
two responses. S/P is calculated as the ration of
scotopic lumens to photopic lumens for the light
source on an ANSI reference ballast. Cooler sources
(higher color temperatures lamps) tend to have higher
values of the S/P ratio compared to warm sources.

Case Study:
Bristol-Myers-Squibb
The total cost of the project was $412,000.
With total annual compressed air energy
savings of $102,000 (4% of plant power
costs) plus a rebate from the utility of
$148,000.
The project’s payback was just over 2.5
years.
In addition, the project allowed the plant to
avoid spending over $900,000 on a new
compressor.
Case Study:

•Region’s largest solar
power installation.
•400+ solar panels generate
80 kWh of electricity.
•Prescription medicines
produced: asthma, peptic
ulcers, HIV, and migraines.

Renewable Energy Sources
Figure 1. The Role of Renewable
Energy Consumption in the
Nation’s Energy Supply, 2007
North Carolina.
•In mid-2007, North Carolina enacted a Renewable
Energy and EnergyEfficiency Portfolio Standard.
•Basically, this requires investor owned utilities to supply
electricity equivalent to 12.5 percent of their 2020 sales
using renewable energy or eligible alternatives by 2021.
•Up to 25 percent of the requirement can be met through
energy efficiency technologies, including combined
heat and power systems powered by nonrenewable
energy sources.
•Municipal utilities and electric cooperatives must meet a
target of 10 percent of their sales coming from
renewables by 2018 but using slightly different rules.

Tax Credits
•In 2007, when the legislature passed Senate Bill 3, tax
credits became available to both residential and
corporate customers in North Carolina.
•The credit covers up to 35% of the cost of a solar
electricity or other renewable energy system, capped at
$10,500 for residential systems and a whopping $2.5
million for commercial and industrial systems.
•Residential customers get that credit all in one year
unless the total is more than 50% of their tax liability. If
so, the rest of the credit is spread over 5 years.
Businesses are required to take their credit over 5
years.
Federal Tax Credits
On October 3, 2008, President Bush signed into law the
“Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008.” This bill
extended tax credits for energy efficient home improvements
(windows, doors, roofs, insulation, HVAC, and non-solar water
heaters). Tax credits for these residential products, which had
expired at the end of 2007, will now be available for improvements
made during 2009. However, improvements made during 2008
are not eligible for a tax credit.
The bill also extended tax credits for solar energy systems and
fuel cells to 2016. New tax credits were established for small wind
energy systems and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. Tax credits
for builders of new energy efficient homes and tax deductions for
owners and designers of energy efficient commercial buildings
were also extended
Wyeth Vaccines , Sanford (2004)
for an innovative
environmental awareness program.
