     <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>BARRINGTON, Ill - January 31, 2012 &#8212;Light Efficient Design (<a href="http://www.led-llc.com/" target="_blank"  ><a href="http://www.led-llc.com" target="_blank">www.led-llc.com</a></a>  ) announces the introduction of the new LED-8025 Garage / Utility bulb. Designed for low bay applications in parking structures and warehouses, this patent pending bulb replaces existing High Intensity Discharge (HID) or High Pressure Sodium (HPS) bulbs. Up until now, facility managers and building engineers needed to add the cost of a new fixture when weighing the decision to switch to LED. Now they can save three ways:<br /> <br /><br />
<ol><li>Save energy costs &#8211; the 52W bulb replaces up to 175W metal halide bulb.</li><li>Save maintenance costs &#8211; each bulb has an estimated 50,000 hour life, reducing labor for bulb replacement.</li><li>Save on overall retrofit project costs &#8211; simply replace existing bulbs with LED bulbs, rather than more costly LED replacement fixtures.</li></ol><br />
<br /> <br />&#39;This bulb is a breakthrough for Light Efficient Design and for the electrical industry,&#39; says CEO Tim Taylor. &#39;One of the biggest obstacles to LED lighting conversion projects is the initial replacement cost&#8212;and we&#39;ve just put the price in line.&#39; The unique design includes an active cooling feature comprised of a Delta 70,000 hour fan. Light Efficient Design reviewed many different UL fans before settling on Delta in order to ensure the highest quality components and backs each bulb with a 5-year warranty.<br /> <br />LED-8025 Garage/Utility Bulb Product Features:<br /><br />
<ul><li>52W · Replaces up to 175W MH</li><li> 5700K Daylight (other K&#39;s available) · 3200 Lumens · Dual Voltage (120-277V)</li><li>CRI 85 · Active Cooling  (Delta 70K Hour Fan) · Med base</li><li> Not dimmable · UL listed Damp Location · LM 79</li><li>Operates to 50 C° (122° F)</li><li> 50,000 hr. life · 5 year warranty · Patent Pending</li></ul><br />
<br /> <br />Light Efficient Design, formerly known as Light Emitting Designs, is a Division of TADD LLC. It was founded in 2007 as a supplier of quality LED retrofit products with a focus on the Electrical Distribution channel. Its product line includes PARs, MRs and T8s, as well as niche products like High Bays, Post Tops and Wall Packs. Light Efficient Design supplies a full line of LED products to meet commercial, industrial and municipal demand.<br /><strong>108 S.

     <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Homeowners who are looking to lower their heating and cooling costs can contact Soil to Sun for an energy assessment through their website at <a href="http://www.soiltosun.com" target="_blank">www.soiltosun.com</a> or by calling on the telephone. An energy audit can help homeowners identify areas of wasteful energy use as well as provide concrete solutions for addressing these problem areas. </p>

<p>Most homes have difficulty with energy waste due to air leaking out of the home through undesigned holes. An energy auditor will identify these areas and come up with plans to resolve them quickly. Soil to Sun can also assist commercial property owners by providing a building performance assessment. A building performance assessment is similar to a home energy audit, but it is much more in-depth due to the size of the building being evaluated. </p>

<p>An energy conservation specialist from Soil to Sun will provide energy consulting service as often as they are requested. People who are interested in a new investment opportunity should contact Soil to Sun about getting involved in an energy saving franchise. </p>

<p>Opportunities currently exist to purchase an energy saving franchise in all 50 states. Potential entrepreneurs can complete an information request form on the company&#39;s website and someone will contact them shortly with more information.</p>

     <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>NEW SOUTH WALES, Australia, January, 2012 &#8211; Conventional water heaters that use electricity and gas are guilty of being the largest energy consumption devices in Australian homes. Because of this, the Australian government started offering Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) to encourage homeowners to install <a href="http://www.solarpowertamworth.com.au/" target="_blank"  >solar water heaters</a> or heat pumps to replace old-fashioned, energy-hungry electric water heaters. Solar Power installs <a href="http://www.solarpowertamworth.com.au/" target="_blank"  >energy efficient solar water systems</a> that provide hot water to homeowners anytime. <a href="http://www.solarpowertamworth.com.au/" target="_blank"  ><a href="http://www.solarpowertamworth.com.au/" target="_blank">www.solarpowertamworth.com.au/</a></a><br /> <br />Mick Daniels, Solar Power Tamworth director and owner says, &#39;Solar Power Tamworth systems receive up to 47 renewable energy credits (REC&#39;s) points from the Federal government &#8211; one of the highest in the market. We offer Australians the opportunity to participate in an initiative that will help them save money and will also have lasting benefits for our planet. A <a href="http://www.solarpowertamworth.com.au/" target="_blank"  >solar power system</a> is an investment in the future of our planet that will show returns for home owners as soon as their first electricity bill arrives. A 2.1 kW photovoltaic solar system will cut the electricity bills in many homes by 33%.&#39;<br /> <br />Solar power systems reduce the reliance on fossil fuels and ensure a healthier planet for future generations. When it comes to <a href="http://www.solarpowertamworth.com.au/" target="_blank"  >eco-friendly energy solutions</a>, the natural choice is solar power systems because they help reduce the impact of greenhouse gas emissions and lower energy costs. <a href="http://www.solarpowertamworth.com.au/" target="_blank">www.solarpowertamworth.com.au/</a><br /> <br />Solar Power Tamworth &amp; North West offers a wide range of hot water solutions. Its water heaters use the sun&#39;s rays to heat water first; however, if the sun is unable to deliver enough energy to heat the water, it uses electricity or gas to boost the heat. This helps homeowners save money and still enjoy the comforts of &#39;on demand&#39; hot water at home. Solar Power&#39;s hot water systems also use less energy making them not only easier on the pocket, but easier on the environment as well. <a href="http://www.solarpowertamworth.com.au/" target="_blank">www.solarpowertamworth.com.au/</a><br /> <br /></p><p>&mdash; WebWireID151061 &mdash;</p><div class="related" style="float:left; margin-right:10px; margin-bottom:10px;"><ul><li><a href="http://www.webwire.com/industry-news.asp?indu=CST">Architecture / Construction / Building</a></li><li><a href="http://www.webwire.com/industry-news.asp?indu=HOU">Household / Consumer / Cosmetics</a></li><li><a href="http://www.webwire.com/industry-news.asp?indu=UTI">Utilities</a></li></ul></div><div class="terms" style="clear:both; float:left; margin-right:10px; margin-bottom:10px;"><a href="http://www.webwire.com">WebWire&reg;</a> | <a href="http://www.webwire.com/webwire-industries-rss-feeds.asp">More Feeds</a></div><br /><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WebWire-News-Utilities/~4/2u-_ga4yDr8" height="1" width="1"/>]]></content:encoded>

     <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Deco Lighting has announced plans to launch a revolutionary new line of commercial<br />LED luminaires destined to change the current status quo in the solid state lighting<br />(SSL) market. Integrating advanced design with next generation LED components<br />and fabrication techniques, the new luminaire line will knock down the price barriers<br />currently restricting widespread use of SSL for commercial applications. The culmination of a multi-million dollar R&amp;D program and partnership with proprietary component suppliers, the new Deco Lighting LED line is slated for introduction in late 2012. The line will include radical new LED roadway, high bay, indoor recessed, wallpack, architectural and landscape luminaires.</p>

<p>Throughout the U.S., municipalities and businesses are striving to replace their<br />inefficient lighting to save energy, reduce their utility costs, and go green with more<br />environmentally friendly, sustainable lighting solutions. New solid state lighting (SSL) technologies offer numerous benefits, including immediate energy savings of 50% or<br />more, 50,000 hour lifespan for long term maintenance savings, and greater controllability. The use of controls, sensors, daylighting, and intelligent network systems offer an additional 25% or more energy savings by adjusting light levels precisely when and where the illumination is needed. In addition, SSL possesses inherent green earth-friendly properties. Unlike typical gas discharge lamps, the semiconductor LED contains no mercury &#8211; a hazardous waste material, produces no ultraviolet radiation, and no EMI [electromagnetic interference) emissions. Due to these properties, LED lighting is a key contributor for government and utility sponsored rebate programs, as well as building projects seeking LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) status and recognition.<br /> <br />Major targets for conversion to LED include streetlighting, outdoor area lighting, parking lots and garages that traditionally use HID (high intensity discharge) fixtures. Streetlighting, in particular, can consume up to 40% of a municipality&#39;s utility budget. Indoor targets for LED include office lighting traditionally dominated by recessed fluorescent fixtures, and warehouses, high ceiling retail, commercial and industrial buildings that use HID. Despite the considerable benefits over conventional lighting, LED luminaires for these applications come with &#39;sticker shock&#39; prices for municipal and business customers. In some cases, federal stimulus funds and utility rebates can help mitigate project procurement costs. However, the typical per unit LED fixture price remains too expensive when compared to conventional alternatives. Deco Lighting has addressed this critical issue in its comprehensive research and development program for next generation LED luminaires. The result is an affordable product line with high performance features and modular design. The customer will also benefit with economical component upgrades to take advantage of the very latest advancements in LED technology and lighting control.</p>

<p>Deco Lighting has rapidly emerged as the leader of Induction lighting for high lumen<br />applications. With the largest selection of outdoor and indoor Induction luminaires in<br />the marketplace, Deco Lighting has developed many unique patented and award-winning fixture designs to enhance the performance of Induction technology and its unmatched 100,000 hour lamp life. These innovations include bi-level Induction fixtures, hybrid luminaires, and the use of integral sensors that function automatically without external controls. Deco Lighting recently introduced Plasma technology luminaires as another cutting edge solution for high lumen outdoor and high bay lighting. Featuring a powerful miniature electrodeless lamp and electronic control capabilities, the Deco Plasma lighting line will be expanded with many new fixture designs.</p>

<p>The success of Deco Induction lighting is proven in an expanding number of municipal, commercial, university and military installations throughout the U.S. and overseas. Having established a strong distribution and sales network, as well as a growing base of major customers, Deco Lighting expects great market penetration and success with it&#39;s new LED product portfolio. </p>

<p>Deco Lighting is a leading manufacturer changing the world of lighting with the latest<br />green technology, energy saving lighting and controls. Deco Lighting&#39;s extensive product line includes architectural and commercial fluorescent, Induction, HID, LED, Plasma, Solar, Dark Sky friendly outdoor luminaires, emergency fixtures and sensors.

Reilly said: &#39;The CatVest EnergyRisk Model provides the objective and accurate energy loss risk analyses and post event loss calculation procedures needed by the Oil and Gas industry to facilitate cost effective insurance coverage.&#39;</p>

<p>CatVest Petroleum Services have already created industry loss indices for a number of major oil and gas producing regions of the world, including the North Sea and the Gulf of Mexico. The EnergyRisk Model is suited to creating geographically targeted indices for quantification and measurement of losses for any region of the world.</p>

<p>CatVest Petroleum Services also offer the world&#39;s most advanced oil and hazardous material spill risk modeling services, having perfected the creation of parametric indices for oil and chemical spill risk using the CatVest SpillRisk Model. CatVests SpillRisk model enables spill risk transfer to the capital markets through catastrophe bond type (ILS) structures.</p>

<p>CatVest Petroleum Services LLC is currently working on a large North Sea offshore energy industry-loss warranty (ILW) transaction with one of the world&#39;s largest reinsurance brokers for a major global reinsurer. They are actively seeking other opportunities to work with insurers, reinsurers, brokers and also oil and gas energy corporations who are seeking to facilitate the transfer of these types of risk.</p>

     <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The color of 2012 is green, according to experts at the Spencer Institute: green living, green eating and a green economy. Laura Klein, author of the institute&#39;s Green Living Coach certification program, recently offered her list of 2012 green living trends.</p>

<p>&#39;First of all, being green is not just a trend, it is fast becoming part of our everyday life,&#39; Klein said. &#39;As many Americans continue to feel the pinch of the recession, rising health insurance rates, medical bills and taxes, more and more people continue to discover that living green is a simpler way of life that will save you money, improve your health, inspire you to consume less, rally you to do  more with less and improve your overall lifestyle.&#39;</p>

<p>Green living is a core value at The Spencer Institute, and Klein predicts the following top three green living trends for 2012:</p>

<p>As people become more educated on what real health and preventative living is, more of them will start or continue to prioritize a truly green and clean lifestyle, which includes food, air, products, commerce and industry.<br />More organic and healthy food choices will become available in 2012 as consumers demand more chemical and GMO-free foods as well as fewer processed, premade and packaged foods.<br />The global green economy will continue to grow as more individuals and corporations choose to invest their dollars and energy with socially responsible and environmentally conscious companies.<br />&amp;#8232;The Spencer Institute&#39;s Green Living Coaching Program, which provides green trends as well as education on the fundamentals of green living, is a 100 percent online and self-paced certification program that can serve as a complement to wellness or life coaching, public health education, nursing and more. The program is available online at <a href="http://spencerinstitute.com/green-living-coach-certification/" target="_blank"  ><a href="http://spencerinstitute.com/green-living-coach-certification/" target="_blank">http://spencerinstitute.com/green-living-coach-certification/</a></a></p>

<p><br />(more)</p>

     <title>Wärtsilä contracted to supply two power plants to Bangladesh</title>
     <link>http://www.webwire.com/ViewPressRel.asp?aId=151373</link>

     <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Government of Bangladesh has initiated a programme to rapidly increase its country&#39;s electricity production. Wärtsilä&#39;s ability to supply efficient and flexible generating equipment on a fast-track basis has resulted in two important new contracts. Another key factor in Wärtsilä being awarded these important contracts was the company&#39;s unique technological ability to easily convert the engines to run on gas once gas becomes available.</p>

<p>Wärtsilä, a leading global supplier of flexible and efficient power plant solutions, has been awarded two contracts to supply power plant generating equipment to Bangladesh. The total overall output of these two plants will be over 200 MW, and they will produce electricity to be supplied to the national grid. In each case, delivery will be made on a fast-track basis in order to meet the tight construction schedules. Both plants are scheduled to be operational before the end of 2012. The orders are included in the fourth quarter 2011 order book.</p>

<p>PowerPac Mutiara Jamalpur Power Plant Ltd, an independent power producer (IPP), has ordered twelve 20-cylinder Wärtsilä 32 generating sets with a total output of approximately 100 MW. The new power plant will operate initially on heavy fuel oil (HFO), but the engines are ready to switch to gas operation when a supply of natural gas becomes available. The same owner - PowerPac-Mutiara Consortium - has also ordered six 18-cylinder Wärtsilä 46 engines in V-configuration and auxiliary equipment for its Khulna power plant project. The output of the Khulna power plant will be over 100 MW.</p>

<p>&#39;These are important orders, for Wärtsilä of course, but also for the Bangladesh Power Development Board, which urgently needs this additional generating capacity. Our ability to supply the needed equipment within a very short time-frame was crucial to the award of these contracts, as was our strong track record in Bangladesh. Furthermore, a unique feature of our engine technology is that where required, they can be easily converted to run on gas as soon as a gas supply is available, and this too was a key factor in the award of these contracts. Wärtsilä employs nearly 500 people in the country, and as a result, can give unmatched support to all Wärtsilä installations throughout the region,&#39; says Göran Richardsson, Sales Director, Wärtsilä Power Plants Asia.</p>

<p>With these two power plants, Wärtsilä currently already has in excess of 1850 MW of installed or to be installed power generating capacity in Bangladesh. One-third of this is also operated and maintained under contract by Wärtsilä.</p>

<p>Wärtsilä in brief<br />Wärtsilä is a global leader in complete lifecycle power solutions for the marine and energy markets. By emphasising technological innovation and total efficiency, Wärtsilä maximises the environmental and economic performance of the vessels and power plants of its customers. In 2010, Wärtsilä&#39;s net sales totalled EUR 4.6 billion with more than 17,500 employees. The company has operations in 160 locations in 70 countries around the world. Wärtsilä is listed on the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki, Finland.<br /><a href="http://www.wartsila.com" target="_blank">www.wartsila.com</a> <br /></p><p>&mdash; WebWireID151373 &mdash;</p><div class="related" style="float:left; margin-right:10px; margin-bottom:10px;"><ul><li><a href="http://www.webwire.com/industry-news.asp?indu=CST">Architecture / Construction / Building</a></li><li><a href="http://www.webwire.com/industry-news.asp?indu=BUA">Business Announcements</a></li><li><a href="http://www.webwire.com/industry-news.asp?indu=MAC">Machinery</a></li><li><a href="http://www.webwire.com/industry-news.asp?indu=OIL">Oil / Energy</a></li><li><a href="http://www.webwire.com/industry-news.asp?indu=UTI">Utilities</a></li></ul></div><div class="terms" style="clear:both; float:left; margin-right:10px; margin-bottom:10px;"><a href="http://www.webwire.com">WebWire&reg;</a> | <a href="http://www.webwire.com/webwire-industries-rss-feeds.asp">More Feeds</a></div><br /><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/WebWire-News-Utilities/~4/TDKNvkJqYAE" height="1" width="1"/>]]></content:encoded>

     <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Twinsburg, Ohio &#8211; January 5, 2011 &#8211;</strong> L.J. Star has been awarded a 2011 Breakthrough Products of the Year Award from <span style="font-style: italic">Processing</span> magazine for its Lumiflex&#8482; Fiber Optic Luminaire (Model USL08 LF-EX). This explosion-proof <a href="http://www.ljstar.com/" target="_blank"  >sightglass</a> light is specially designed for the illumination of process operations in reactors, vessels and pipelines, in hazardous zones within the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, chemical and petrochemical processing industries.</p>

<p>As one of the most prestigious awards in its field, the 2011 Breakthrough Products of the Year Award recognizes unique products introduced between October 2010 and September 2011 that have made a significant contribution to the process industries.</p>

<p>Last year, L.J. Star developed the USL08 LF-EX in response to feedback from customers who desired a more reliable fiber optic sightglass light that delivered higher quality output than competing products on the market. The luminaire is ideal for mounting on sightglasses where there is limited space or where vibrations can shorten bulb life. It is UL 1598 and 844 listed to Class I, Division 1 and 2.</p>

<p>The USL08 LF-EX focuses intense light through a fiber optic bundle that illuminates the interior of the vessel. The compact design of the luminaire&#39;s light guide enables light to be projected through a small area of the sightglass, benefitting customers in two key ways: It saves money by eliminating the need for a second sightglass for viewing, and it saves space because it takes up very little room on the vessel.</p>

<p>The USL08 LF-EX sightglass light produces over 30% more light than competing products. Because the bulb lasts over 6,000 hours, which is two to three times longer than other fiber optic luminaires, and requires only 39 W of power, it provides a highly cost-effective lighting solution over its long operational life.<br />To learn more about L.J. Star&#39;s sightglass products and technologies, visit: [url]http://www.ljstar.com/pubs/44.htm[/url].<br /> <br /><strong>About L.J. Star</strong><br />L.J. Star Incorporated provides an extensive line of process observation equipment -- sightglasses, lights, sanitary fittings, and level gage instrumentation. Product lines include Metaglas&#174; Safety Sight Windows, Lumiglas&#174; Explosion Proof Lights and Cameras, Visual Flow Indicators, Sight Ports, Sanitary Clamps, Magnetic Level Gages and Gage Glass.  Metaglas is the #1 selling fused sightglass, proven in thousands of installations around the world.
