NorthDumplingIsland will be used as an efficient off-grid model for other countries to follow the example of LED lighting.
This three-acre island on the Connecticut coast, NorthDumpling, is a prolific inventor, Dean Kamen, who founded NorthDumpling alone. He also perfected his own constitution, national flag and national anthem as an independent country. When the US Coast Guard cut off power to the lighthouse connected to the island, the island gradually turned on solar power. At this time, Kamen seized the opportunity to solve problems with renewable energy and the latest technological innovations in lighting, water purification and equipment installations. Many of them are his own inventions. In this way, the island can achieve true zero energy. This means that its energy consumption has become energy generated.
This fully self-converting and self-sustaining island will unveil its mystery in the spring of a two-day fundraising event for FIRST. FIRST is an organization founded by Kamen to stimulate young people's interest in science and technology.
As the pressure on our planet's energy resources grows, we want to make NorthDumpling a small and remarkable example, telling us that we can solve many energy problems on a larger scale with today's emerging energy-saving technologies. It is a good scientific and engineering proof that we have solved the complex challenges of this era. Kamen said: Only the main energy consumption of lighting has been fully proved. Philips' LED lighting system is the most integrated. Good technology innovation and social benefits.
Philips ColorKinetics will be the official lighting supplier on the island. Installation work is ongoing, including:
Karmen replaces incandescent bulbs with LED light sources, saving 70% of lighting-related energy.
Add controllable and color LED lighting to the special requirements of the island, while saving nearly 50% overall energy
Unlike the previous floodlighting system on the island, the directional nature of the LEDs enhances the effectiveness of the illumination, allowing light to be projected more efficiently where it is needed.
The incandescent lamps installed in the previous basement generated too much heat and were unsafe. There is a common misconception here that the use of energy-efficient lighting means sacrificing the light quality and light perception we are used to. In fact, this is not the case with LED systems. If designed well, the LED system can produce almost the same shade as all white lights (from warm incandescent lamps to cold fluorescent lamps). Also, the digital and directionality of the LED light source allows us to do control that we didn't have in the past, or we can customize it. Fritz Morgan, chief technology officer of Philips Color Dynamics, said: I am very happy to install our technology on NorthDumpling Island. Its wide range of uses - from decorative to functional - all energy efficient.
Philips is involved in many government and industry initiatives related to energy efficiency. As a founding member of the Next Generation Lighting Industry Alliance, Philips has helped the US Department of Energy and LED Lighting's Energy Star standards develop a technology blueprint. Philips also played an important role in the formation and leadership of the Lighting Efficiency Alliance. Recently, they also won the Energy Efficiency Award of the US Energy Efficiency Economics Committee. The Energy Efficiency Award is mainly to promote the elimination of inefficient incandescent lamps in the US market.
