If You Want to Cut Your Hospital's
Overhead, Maybe You Should Look
at What's Over Your Head.
~t I
More than 200 U.S. hospitals have and they're saving more than
$45,000,000 as Partners in the Green Lights Program.
Your hospital can join the ranks of
those who are dramatically cutting
their operating costs and
helping the environment as
Partners in the U S
Environmental Protection
Agency's Green Lights Program
By joining Green Lights, your
hospital will have free access to
new lighting technology informa-
tion ana support uur current
partners have cut their lighting
electric bills by $0 20 to $1 per
square foot, realized paybacks of
2-3 years, and achieved internal
rates of return of more than 30%
What's more, Green Lights will
give your hospital the public
recognition it deserves for vol-
untarily reducing its energy con-
sumption and cutting air pollu-
tion A pretty healthy message

n order to succeed in today's competi-
tive healthcare environment, hospitals
must continuously search for ways to
cut costs. Typically, healthcare executives
turn to rationing services or forming
alliances with other healthcare organiza-
tions as effective ways to reduce costs. Few
healthcare executives, however, are aware
of the benefits of energy-efficient lighting
upgrades.
Participating in the EPA's Green
Lights program can make a significant
difference in a hospital's effort to save
money and energy, without sacrificing
comfort or quality. In fact, lighting
upgrades can improve comfort levels and
righting quality in many situations.
Healthcare is one of the most energy
intensive sectors in the U.S. Averaging
approximately 218,000 Btu/square foot,
hospitals typically consume twice as much
energy as an office building. Lighting
alone accounts for up to 25 percent of a
hospital's electricity bill.
Joining Green Lights can help hospi-
tals reduce their electricity usage, save on
electric bills and maintenance costs, and
reduce pollution. Already, 176 hospitals
and 36 medical groups across the U.S.
have recognized the benefits of Green
Lights by joining the program.
In an effort to share some of the suc-
cesses of our hospital Partners and
Endorsers, this issue of the Update focuses
on the healthcare sector of the Green
Lights program. Throughout this issue you
will have an opportunity to see how our
hospital Partners and Endorsers are imple-
menting lighting upgrades and promoting
their roles as environmental leaders, fm

lighting program will address "every fix-
ture in our 100 facilities," according to
Fischetti, and will be enhanced with a
state-of-the-art energy management sys-
tem. Like many other health care organi-
zations, City of Hope is not limiting the
scope of their energy-efficient invest-
ments to lighting upgrades alone, but also
seeks to upgrade other building systems
as well.
The University of Texas MD
Anderson Cancer Center in Houston
is almost 100 percent complete with all of
their upgrades. The Center has been
extremely active in Green Lights commu-
nication efforts by promoting the program
during Earth Day activities, placing arti-

to ENERGY STAR Buildings
"St. Charles Medical Center is per-
haps the most efficient upgraded building
in the country," claimed Michael Severns,
Director of Facility Services for the Bend,
Oregon hospital. A Charter Partner in
EPA's ENERGY STAR Buildings program,
St. Charles invested in lighting and other
energy-efficient technologies last year in
an effort to maximize savings throughout
its facility. The first step in the ENERGY
STAR process was Green Lights, during
which Severns oversaw the replacement of
old style lamps and ballasts with fluores-
cent lighting, including T8 lamps,
hybrid/cathode cutout ballasts, compact
twin-tube lamps, high-pressure sodium
lamps, and LED exit signs. Occupancy
sensors and a delamping strategy provided
additional savings for the hospital as well.
Severns noted that the new lighting sys-
tem provides far better color rendering as
well as cost savings. "Improved lighting in
our hospital has, in turn, improved the
healing process," said Severns.

already know exactly what upgrades you
need to perform, you will most likely gain
new insights on the projects you have
planned on all along and uncover some
finer opportunities you had not initially
thought of," said Anderko. To further
improve its ongoing energy reduction
efforts, Pennsylvania Hospital recently
joined as a Charter Partner of the ENERGY

Going Beyond
Green Lights to Other
Energy Efficiency Efforts
1995 Large Hospital Partner of the
Year University of Michigan Hospitals
(UMH) has been an advocate of energy
conservation projects over the past eight
years, initiating a variety of energy-saving
projects. Located in Ann Arbor, Michigan,
UMH has upgraded almost 60 percent of
its facilities since joining the program in
1993 and is enjoying the results of these
upgrades, including annual energy savings
of $100,400 and a 36 percent
internal rate of return. "At UMH,
we're incredibly lucky to have our
upper management recognize
that there's a realistic payback for
doing these upgradesnot only
from an energy conservation dol-
lars standpoint, but also in terms
of pollution prevention," said
Tom Ouvry, UMH Energy

Green Lights program an excellent source
of technical information on lighting
options as well as useful case studies of
savings by participating hospitals in other
regions of the country," said Pat
McClearn, Program Director for the
Colorado Hospital Association. "We
appreciate the way EPA has worked with
our hospitals to publicize their participa-
tion in the program." The Colorado
Hospital Association also regularly fea-
tures Green Lights information in its

opening ceremony of the 1995 ASHE
Annual Conference in Las Vegas, Nevada.
"Over the years, ASHE and Green Lights
have forged a very important relationship.
Together we have promoted lighting effi-
ciency and saved our hospitals significant
dollars from their operating budgets and
promoted pollution prevention," said
Peglow.
ASHE, one of the first and largest
healthcare Endorsers, has taken advan-
tage of a variety of Green Lights informa-
tional and publicity tools. ASHE helped
coordinate a mailing to its hospital engi-
neers, scheduled several Green Lights
regional appearances, and developed
numerous posters and advertisements
publicizing the Green Lights/ASHE
relationship and its commitment to pollu-
tion prevention.

Endorser Activities
Green Lights has also been visible at
many other regional hospital conferences in
1995. Major appearances included the
Louisiana Hospital Association Annual
Conference in New Orleans and the
California Society of Healthcare Engineers
(CSHE) Conference held in Los Angeles.
At both of these events, Green Lights
lighting experts delivered a presentation
regarding the latest information on lighting
technology and fielded questions regarding
program information and participation.
"Having Green Lights present at our con-
ference informed our members about the
latest lighting technologies and the many
benefits of Green Lights participation,"
said Manual Cagulada, Treasurer of

How to complete your GL
upgrades within five years
Whatever year
you are in, your

account manager is
available to help.

Year One: OK, you are in year one, you
are enthusiastic about Green Lights. You
want to make it work. How? Gather the
people you know need to support Green
Lights in your company in order for it to
work. Make sure they understand the pro-
gram. Your account manager can even
come for a presentation. Then prioritize
your buildings, start with a simple trial
upgrade, and monitor your savings.
Constantly send out internal updates
about your progress to the finance depart-
ment, public relations department, and
your executive management. Remind
them how Green Lights will benefit their
organization. Stay organized. The more
time you spend in the first year of Green
Lights, the less hectic the program will be
in years four and five. Above all, use your
account manager: Green Lights might not
be your only priority, but it is theirs and
they are there to answer your questions
and get you the resources you may need.
Year Two: What if you are two years
into the program, you have only done a lit-
tle bit, and your budget was just cut? Think
about what you have done. How much
have you saved monetarily? Have you
included maintenance and lighting quality
benefits? Work with your account manag-
er to present a proposal to your budget
office. Extrapolate from what you have
saved. Look at the aggregate, include pro-
ductivity and environmental benefits as
well as the public relations possibilities. No
one will pass up a $100 bill on the ground,
why pass up the potential Green Lights
has to offer? If it is possible to use a third
party, start looking for possible contractors.
Use the list of Green Lights Lighting
Management Companies or the Surveyor
Ally list. This is also a good time to survey
some typical spaces and practice using
ProjectKalc software. The fixture by fixture
upgrade system will quickly and easily
show you the potential for saving money.
Years Three and Four: So, it's year
three or even better, year four. You spent
the first year playing hot potato with the
Implementation Director title among your
fellow co-workers. The annual snapshot
came and you got caught when the music
stopped. The second and third year you
spent wondering what to do. Now you're
entering your fourth year, and you have less
than 2 years to finish Green Lights. Is it
possible? Sure it is. This is no time to relax,
but no problem.
The fastest and easiest way to imple-
ment righting upgrades is to contract out
the work. The Green Lights Ally program
exists to assist in implementation. A quick
call to a local Lighting Management Com-
pany Ally, Distributor Ally, or Surveyor
Ally will get you on the fast track. Ask your
Green Lights account manager to help you
find these people. "When in doubt, bill it
out." The biggest benefit is that you will
have someone who knows what they are
doing, and with certain contracts, they will
guarantee that you will save money.
Whatever stage you are at in the pro-
gram, your Green Lights account manag-
er is available to help you get where you
need to be. The energy and cost savings
you will receive from implementing Green
Lights is worth the effort to complete your
upgrades. iWl

Putting the GL Ally Logo to Work
Alliance with EPA gives credibility
and visibility to manufacturers and utilities
ttracting attention is the name of the
/ Igame when it comes to fighting for a
spot in the marketplace. For Green Lights
Allies, having the Green Lights logo on
company letterhead, marketing and adver-
tising materials, and business cards can
help an Ally shine a little brighter than its
non-Ally competitors.
Providing Credibility
Many companies look forward to sign-
ing the Memorandum of Understanding
and becoming an Ally because it gives
them the opportunity to use the logo. For
companies in the lighting industry like
Garcy/Systems Lighting Products of
Portland, Tennessee, an alliance with EPA
"gives us credibility as an energy conserva-
tion company," said Carolyn Drolen,
Garcy/Systems Marketing Manager. Larry
Wegner, Cooper Lighting's Marketing
Communications Manager, agrees. Cooper
Lighting, located in Vicksburg,
Mississippi, used the logo on its booth at
several trade shows. "Green Lights visibili-
ty affords the company the opportunity to
underscore our position and commitment
to the cause," said Wegner.
Steve Strom, Vice President of
Marketing at IllumElex Corporation in
Raleigh, North Carolina, said that use of
the logo has helped to heighten his com-
pany's visibility externally, and use of the
logo internally keeps senior management
and sales personnel reminded of their
commitment to energy efficiency.
Departing from usual marketing tech-
niques, Allies have found interesting ways
to market themselves and the program
with the aid of the logo. For example,
Stanion Wholesale Electric Company
located in Pratt, Kansas puts the Green
Lights logo on the sides of their service
vans. In 1994, Rockingham Electrical
Supply of Newington, New Hampshire,
promoted "cleaning up the environment"
by placing the Ally logo on small paper
trash bags used by employees.
In 1993, United Illuminating of New
Haven, Connecticut, created Green
Lights Ally logo stickers for placement on
materials which were displayed at the
Conservation and Load Management
Program. The Utility
Ally also designed
Green Lights
Ally t-shirt for all
employees working
y/ / EPA on the upgrade
T * 1 JL Ject-
The
1111 Green
Lights logo achieved more wear in 1994
when Southern California Edison of San
Dimas, California, made "I Survived the
Project of 1993" t-shirts for its Green
Lights survey teams.
Because use of the Ally logo has been
so successful and popular, EPA has begun
allowing Surveyor Allies to use the logo
on their business cards.
Logo Requests
strongly encourages the use of the Green
Lights Ally logo, but requires Allies to
submit their requests for approval before
printing.
Logo requests typically are approved
within five days, and although there are
stringent guidelines for certain uses of the
logo, requests are rarely denied.
Problem Areas
In the past year, EPA has approved
more than 200 logo requests. EPA
It is often difficult for Allies to decide
which is the correct version of the logo to
use. The logo with the disclaimer, "Use of
this logo does not imply EPA endorse-
ment," is to be used in advertisements and
on product literature, brochures, catalogs,
calculation sheets for energy savings and
other materials that promote a product,
service and/or system. The logo without
the disclaimer may be used only on busi-
ness cards, fax cover sheets, envelopes and
company letterhead.
Another area of ambiguity is logo
placement. Occasionally logos are used in
unauthorized locations, such as near pic-
tures or descriptions of a company's prod-
ucts or services. The logo may, however,
be used on brochures, product literature
or other materials containing pictures if
the logo is placed on the front or back
cover.
Regardless of usage or placement, the
logo must always appear in its entirety and
must not be altered. For more information
about logo usage or placement, or for a
copy of revised Ally logo guidelines, con-

n
perating a community hospital in the
\J 90's is no easy task, especially when
the monthly electric bill is anywhere from
$50,000 to $70,000. That's why Taylor
Hospital, located in Ridley Park, PA,
decided to do something about the high
rates it was paying. "The patients are the
hospital's biggest concern. We should not
have to worry about the monthly electric
bill," said Mike Hart, Taylor's Green
Lights Implementation Director. Re-
ducing energy use and thereby preventing
pollution made economic and environ-
mental sense to the hospital; it was the
natural thing to do.
With its patients and the environment
in mind, Taylor decided to change its
energy habits, with the help of Green
Lights Manufacturer Ally Johnson
Controls Inc. (JCI). In April 1992, before
Taylor was even a Green Lights partici-
pant, the hospital signed a shared savings
agreement with JCI that promised Taylor
a guaranteed energy savings over a five-
year period with the installation of a com-
puter-based heating, ventilating and
air-conditioning (HVAC) program that
allows the user to access and change the
energy output of the HVAC in different
areas of the hospital.
Shortly after Taylor and JCI began
their energy conservation work, the hospi-
tal was encouraged by a local EPA repre-
sentative to join Green Lights. In striving
to save energy, it only made sense to
Taylor to include a lighting upgrade in its
energy-saving project with JCI.
In early 1994, Taylor signed the Green
Lights Memorandum of Understanding
(MOU) and committed to upgrading its
222,000 square foot facility. JCI conduct-
ed the initial survey for the job and, with
Taylor's agreement, added the upgrade to
the existing contract it had with the hos-
pital. JCI then brought in a lighting sub-
contractor that assisted Taylor in
completing a detailed audit of the facility.
Within six months, Taylor, with the
help of JCI, completed the lighting
upgrade project and was experiencing a
total energy savings of $53,565 annually.
JCI relamped all of the hospital's T12
lamps with T8 technology, delamped in
some areas and installed reflectors. The
hospital's incandescent lighting was
replaced with compact fluorescents,
including Taylor's exit signs. The Ally also
installed occupancy sensors, which have
contributed to a lighting savings of more
than 50 percent for the Partner.
JCI's Green Lights support to Taylor is
exemplary, the type of partnership the
program set out to establish. For instance,
JCI reported the surveys and lighting
upgrades the hospital made to EPA, and
the Ally assisted the Partner with third-
party financing to pay for the upgrade.
Even after the upgrade project was com-
pleted, JCI conducted monthly "check-
ups" at the hospital to ensure that Taylor
realized the guaranteed savings that were
projected at the outset of the project said
JCI Energy Engineer Mark Brogan. Ffl

Minimizing the Effects of EMI
Electromagnetic interference may have many
causes. Reduce its effects by using these solutions.
As electronic devices are introduced into
the work place at ever-increasing rates,
users are finding that power quality and
interaction effects are sometimes begin-
ning to manifest themselves in mysterious
ways. Although hospitals rarely encounter
problems from electromagnetic interfer-
ence (EMI) from fluorescent systems with
electronic ballasts, lighting upgrade plan-
ners should be aware of steps that can be
taken to ensure EMI doesn't become a
problem. This article briefly addresses
some of the methods for minimizing EMI
without foregoing the energy efficiency
benefits achieved with electronic ballasts.
What is EMI?
EMI occurs when electromagnetic
waves emitted from electronic equipment
affect the performance of another elec-
tronic device. Radiated EMI occurs when
the electric and magnetic fields inherent
in electronic devices interfere with a elec-
tromagnetic signal that is being transmit-
ted or received (such as radio signals).
Conducted EMI (harmonic distortion)
occurs when electronic devices induce
currents in the local power network that
adversely affect an electronic device on
the same power network (such as a pow-
erline carrier device). EMI in hospital
lighting (that uses electronic ballasts) may
cause:
faulty readings on EKG, MRI, or oscil-
loscopes
noise or static in radio communications
incorrect responses from low-voltage or
power-line carrier control signals
Sources of EMI
The source of EMI may be the high-
frequency fluorescent lighting system (that
uses electronic ballasts) or other electronic
equipment in the immediate area.
Electromagnetic waves from an elec-
tronic fluorescent lighting system are radi-
ated from the lamps, ballasts, and ballast
wiring. These waves are conducted by the
power lines that feed into the ballast.
To determine which devices are causing
the problem, first turn off all suspected
equipment, and then individually turn
them back on one at a time until the
offending device is identified.
Possible Solutions
Although manufacturers can reduce
EMI at the component, circuit and equip-
ment levels, users can reduce EMI at the
system level by implementing the follow-
ing solutions:
Be sure the luminaires are grounded.
Shield the ballast wires to reduce radi-
ated EMI.
Replace fluorescent lenses with EMI-
shielding lenses (note, however, that
these lenses can reduce light transmis-
sion by 20%).
Minimize conducted EMI by installing
filters on the electric supply lines.
For extremely sensitive equipment,
consider using low-frequency cathode-
disconnect (hybrid) ballasts. In 2-lamp
ballast applications, cathode-disconnect
T8 ballasts are as efficient as 2-lamp
T8 electronic ballasts.
Move the susceptible equipment as far
as possible from the luminaires (includ-
ing electronic-ballasted compact fluo-
rescent task lights). The strength of
radiated EMI diminishes in proportion
to the square of the distance from the
source of the electromagnetic field.
Note that most EMI problems occur
when the susceptible equipment is
within three feet of the EMI source.
As an alternative to modifying the
high-frequency fluorescent lighting sys-
tem, consider adding shielding to existing
susceptible equipment. For example, con-
sider shielding low-voltage control wiring
or use twisted-pair control wiring instead.
Note, however, that most sensitive equip-
ment in hospitals already have EMI
shielding and filtering devices installed to
limit affects caused by EMI.
Some suppliers of electronic ballasts are
willing to provide a guarantee that if their
ballasts cause an EMI problem, they will
be replaced free of charge. Ask your sup-
plier to help you set up a trial installation
in an EMI-sensitive area to determine the
potential impacts. Based on the results of
the trial installation, your supplier can
determine if a guarantee can be offered.

interactive effects of electromagnetic inter-
ference, refer to Lighting Answers: Electro-

Energy Star Buildings Stage 3: HVAC Load Reductions
To introduce Green Lights participants to
the ENERGY STAR Buildings program, the
Update is documenting the results of
Showcase Buildings participants as they
implement each stage of the program. This
article, the fifth in a series, describes Stage 3:
HVAC Load Reductions.
\ central goal of the ENERGY STAR
I I Buildings approach to comprehensive
energy upgrades is to reduce heating and
cooling loads as far as profitable before
tackling the HVAC equipment upgrades
covered in Stages 4 and 5. By reducing
loads first, it often becomes possible to
replace existing chillers, for example, with
smaller, more efficient units that provide
an attractive return on investment.
Stage 3 finishes the HVAC load
'tions that Green Lights (Stage 1),
Vis. Beyond the waste heat that light-
g produces, and which Green Lights
reduces, there are two main types of
building cooling loadswaste heat from
office equipment and unwanted heat
gain through the windows and roof of a
building.
Office equipment, such as computers,
printers, fax machines, copiers, cooking
and other miscellaneous loads, can con-
sume as much as 20-30 percent of the
electricity used by a facility and add to the
fading cooling load. Fortunately, the use
energy-efficient office equipment

ENERGY STAR Showcase Building par-
ticipant, Mobil R&D, is saving $3,000
annually by replacing the first 15 percent
of their older computers in one year with
ENERGY STAR Computers. Mobil's
ENERGY STAR Computers will also reduce
the building's cooling load by five tons
when fully implemented.
The other opportunity for reducing
building cooling loads is by upgrading a
building's envelope or exterior, such as
improving roof insulation, window solar
gain, and air leakage. Upgrading roof
insulation is often cost effective during
scheduled repairs. Improving the roof
insulation and fixing air leaks will often
produce substantial energy savings, but
upgrading the windows can have an even
larger impact.
Have you ever wondered why, even in
the dead of winter with the temperature
hovering below freezing, that your car sit-
ting on an open parking lot in the sun-
shine can be so snug and warm, even
when you have been gone for some time?

source. Consider how much heat would

T
I he 1,550,845 Ibs. of annual CO2 sav-
ings from Haywood County Hospital's
(HCH) upgrade is equal to taking 145
cars off the road per year. "By becoming a
Green Lights Partner, Haywood County
Hospital reinforced its commitment to pro-
tect the environment while providing per-
sonalized, compassionate, quality health-
care for our patients," said Dwayne V.
Burress, HCH's Director of Engineering.
HCH financed its upgrade through a
guaranteed savings agreement offered by
Green Lights Manufacturer Ally Honey-
well. This agreement promises that annual
energy cost savings will exceed a quoted
minimum amount to ensure a positive
cash flow. HCH used the savings to
update its fire alarm system and energy
management system, and for mechanical
upgrades such as installing variable speed
drives and new energy-efficient motors.
HCH in Clyde, North Carolina, is now
benefitting from $58,291 per year in ener-
gy cost savings and an internal rate of
return of 33 percent. When implementing
Green Lights, HCH upgraded 254 incan-
descent, 157 HID-mercury vapor and 3032
T-12 lamps to 339 compact twin-tube and
1784 T-8 lamps. "As a consumer of large
amounts of electricity, we are pleased that
we are saving dollars by reducing operating
expenses as well as helping improve the
environment," said Burress. n
