This paper presents an energy efficiency analysis at a unit of a private higher education institution in the city of Manaus. In this case study, we sought to analyze the lighting system of the educational institution, promoting a simple and effective way to contribute to the improvement of energy efficiency in the institution that is the replacement of fluorescent lamps with LED lamps (Ligth Emitting Diode). In addition to increasing efficiency, LEDs bring significant benefits to the power grid, such as improved installation power factor and power quality, and reduced maintenance due to their longer service life. This case study presents a case study to be implemented in a higher education institution. The benefits that the use of LED brings in various aspects will be analyzed in detail.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
