    This document presents a summary of a student project that analyzed the energy efficiency of street lighting on the VNIT campus. [1] It measured illumination levels across campus using a lux meter to audit current performance. [2] It then proposed installing solar panels to power the lights as a more energy efficient alternative that would save money. [3] Installing 3 solar grids would meet power needs, create no carbon emissions, and have a payback period of 22 years with a 25% return on investment, making it a financially viable clean energy solution.

    Objectives

    • Optimize the use of electricity using LUX


    meter.
    • Energy saving through selection of efficient
    lamp. Technologies and design practices.
    • Capital cost saving using proper spacing
    and placement.
    • Energy Saving through the installation of
    solar panel.
    Terminology

    • Luminaire - A housing for one or more lamps, comprising a body and


    any refractor, reflector, diffuser or enclosure associated with the
    lamp(s).
    • Luminous Flux-The light given by a light course or a luminaire or
    received by a surface irrespective of the directions in which it is
    distributed. The unit of the lnminous4Iux is the lumen (lm).
    • Illumination-The luminous flux incident on a surface per unit area. The
    unit of illumination is the lumen per square metre (lux).
    • Light Output -The luminous flux emitted by a luminaire.
    • Luminous efficacy - An electric light source is a device, which
    transforms electrical energy, or power (in watts), into visible
    electromagnetic radiation, or light (lumens). The rate of converting
    electrical energy into visible light is called “luminous efficacy” and is
    measured in lumens per watt.
    • Outreach- The distance measured
    horizontally between the centre of
    the column or wall face and the
    centre of a luminaire (p in Fig. 1).
    • Overhang-The distance measured
    horizontally between the centre of a
    luminaire mounted on a bracket and
    the adjacent edge of the carriage-
    way (s in Fig. 1).
    • Mounting Height - The vertical
    distance between the centre of the
    luminaire and the surface of the
    carriageway (h in Fig. 1).
    • Spacing-The distance, measured
    along the centre line of &he
    carriageway, between successive
    luminaires in an installation (d in Fig.
    1).
    • Width of Carriageway-The distance
    between kerb lines measured at right
    angles to the length of the
    carriageway (1 in Fig. 1).
    Instrument Required
    • Theodolite ,
    • Tripod Stand,
    • Tape,
    • LUX meter.

    Average illuminance Eavg = [(P1+P3+P7+_P9)/16] + [(P2+P4+P6+P8)/8] + [P5/4] (As per CIE recommendation)
    •Electricity consumption data:
    Per day working hour = 12hrs
    Per unit cost of energy = Rs.10/kwh
    Number of luminaires = 6nos.
    Energy consumption per year = (6nos.*40watt/nos.*12hrs/day*365day/year)/1000watt/kwh=
    1051.2kwh/year
    Annual cost of energy = Rs.10/kwh*1051.2kwh/year = Rs.10512/year

    •Energy-efficient recommendations:
    Per day requirement of electricity = 6nos.*40watt/nos.*12hrs/day = 2880watt
    As per ujjwal solar,
    1kw on grid solar system energy generation = 5000watt/day
    Efficiency of solar module = 25%
    Efficiency of inverter = 80%
    Life of solar system = 25years
    Per day generation = 5000*0.25*0.80 = 1000watt/day
    No of solar grid required = 2880/1000 = 2.88 ~ 3
    Cost of per solar grid = Rs.74588 (after installation)
    Subsidy applicable for 1kw on grid solar panel = Rs.14588
    Cost after subsidy = Rs.60000
    Maintenance cost = Rs.100/month
    Total cost per year = (3*60000/25)+100*12 = Rs.8400/year
    •Financial analysis:
    Total investment = 8400*25 = 210000
    Total cost of energy in 25years = 10512*25 = 262800
    Net profit = 262800 – 210000 = 52800
    Payback period –
    Payback period = total investment / cost of energy per year = 210000/9461
    = 22.19years
    Return on investment –
    Return on investment = net profit/total investment = 52800/210000*100 =
    25.14%
    Conclusion
    • Annual cost of electricity consumption is Rs.
    10512/yr and the solar panel cost per year
    is Rs. 8400/yr
    • So here is saving of Rs. 2112/yr and its
    payback period is 22.19 year.
    • Its return on investment is 25.14%
    • Thus installation of 3, 1Kw on grid solar is
    fulfill our requirement, left zero carbon
    footprint and make it energy efficient
