Lâmpadas LED e fluorescentes compactas T5: um estudo comparativo da eficiência energética e da sustentabilidade em centros de distribuição.

Abstract

The energy has a direct relationship to sustainability, since, to generate it, distribute it and save it, there will always be environmental, social and economic impacts. This article will address the industrial electricity consumption, in particular, systems and lighting alternatives that contribute to an efficient and sustainable energy consumption in distribution centers, such as the LED lamps and compact fluorescent lamps T5 (objects of the present study). To check which type of lighting system best suited to a distribution center, two cases appear, the first being a comparative study between LED lamps and traditional lamps and the second a comparative study between LED lamps, compact fluorescent lamps T5 and metal vapor lamps on a distribution center‟s project building. When analyzing the data provided by the two cases, it was concluded that assess the financial viability of a technical Lighting design depends on what one takes as a baseline, comparing the energy potential of each type of lamp, making the correct selection of luminaries and developing a lighting design that determines the optimum amount of illumination for the venture.
