CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS<br />
Operating Room Lighting Replacement<br />
With an LED initial cost of $27,000/fixture and service life of 15 years an early retirement based on energy savings is<br />
not economically viable. Halogen replacement fixtures cost approximately $20,000. The incremental cost associated<br />
with this still will not justify their implementation based solely on energy, but the reliability of the fixtures and the other<br />
associated benefits warrant LEDs as a viable alternative at the end of the existing fixtures service life.<br />
