NSRP ASE Investment: $150k
Objective:
This project sought to decrease installation and operation costs associated with shipboard lighting systems by evaluation of low voltage lighting system hardware and power system architectures. This effort allowed the evaluation of new light fixture concepts for forward fit applications that exploit the use of LED technology, with the focus being aimed at a low-voltage (less than 30V) solution. A trade analysis of the selected concept was conducted to determine installation and life-cycle cost impacts.
