4. Required Environmental Specifications for Limited Use Lighting Products

Fluorescent lamps, HID lamps, and ballasts are considered to be limited use lighting products and shall only be used when LED equipment is not yet a practical solution or LED replacements do not exist.

Vendors must only offer limited use lighting products that meet the following minimum requirements.

A. FLUORESCENT LAMPS

1. All fluorescent lamps must have a color rendering index (CRI) of 80 or higher.

2. Four-foot linear T8 fluorescent lamps must have a minimum rated life of 24,000 hours when tested on instant start ballasts with 3-hour starts.

3. All other T8 lamps must have a minimum rated life of 18,000 hours when tested on instant start ballasts with 3-hour starts.

4. All T5 fluorescent lamps must have a minimum rated life of 30,000 hours when tested on programmed start ballasts with 3-hour starts.

5. Fluorescent lamps that are labeled TLCP-compliant (e.g., ECO) or RoHS-compliant are preferred.

Many fluorescent lamps (including fluorescent tube lamps and compact fluorescent lamps) can be cost-effectively replaced by LED lamps, retrofit kits or luminaires. Compared to fluorescent lamps, LEDs are more energy-efficient, longer lasting, and free of toxic mercury.

B. HIGH-INTENSITY DISCHARGE (HID) LAMPS

1. All HID lamps must be either metal halide (ceramic metal halides preferred) or high-pressure sodium (HPS).

2. HID lamps that are labeled TCLP-compliant (e.g., ECO) or RoHS-compliant are preferred.

Many HID lamps can be cost-effectively replaced by LED lamps, retrofit kits or luminaires.

Compared to HID lamps (such as high-pressure sodium and metal halides), LEDs are more energy efficient, longer lasting, and free of toxic mercury.

C. BALLASTS

1. All fluorescent ballasts must be electronic.

2. All electronic ballasts must be RoHS-compliant.

3. All HID ballasts must be designed to operate either metal halide lamps or high-pressure sodium (HPS) lamps. Probe-start ballasts are allowed only when they are designed to operate metal halide lamps over 1000 watts. Ballasts designed to operate lower-wattage metal halide lamps must use pulse start technology, which is more energy efficient.

Many fluorescent and HID ballasts (and accompanying lamps) can be cost-effectively replaced with LED drivers (and LED lamps). When fluorescent and HID ballasts reach the end of their useful life, they must be replaced with LED luminaires, LED retrofit kits, or LED drivers and lamps.

5. End-of-Life Management

All lighting equipment recycled under this contract shall be managed by an authorized lamp, ballast or electronic waste recycling company.

Pursuant to State Finance and Procurement Article §14–415 of the Annotated Code of Maryland, contractors shall use recyclers that are certified by either e-Stewards (http://e-stewards.org/) or R2

(https://sustainableelectronics.org/recyclers).

Mercury-Added Fluorescent and HID Lamps

Mercury-added fluorescent and HID lamps shall be managed in accordance with U.S. EPA standards and

State environmental laws to minimize the release of mercury into the environment.

Mercury-added fluorescent and HID lamps that have been replaced shall not be installed or retrofitted in another location for reuse.

More information on EPA guidelines on proper disposal can be found here:

Hazardous Waste - Universal Waste | US EPA

6. Utility Energy Efficiency Rebate Programs

Vendors are strongly encouraged to promote the purchase of LED lighting products that are eligible for utility energy-efficiency rebates. These programs incentivize lighting products that are listed on the ENERGY STAR Certification List or the DesignLights Consortium (DLC) Qualified Product List (QPL).

Financial incentives provided by the utility companies are an important instrument for increasing the use of energy-efficient technologies in State buildings and facilities. Taking advantage of utility financial incentives can help contract users overcome market barriers by lowering inhibitive upfront costs.

Financial incentives also complement other energy-efficiency policies such as appliance standards and energy codes.

More information on utility incentives and eligibility requirements can be found in the Appendix of this document.

7. Additional Contract Language for Environmentally Preferable Purchasing

On Environmentally Preferable Purchasing:

The State of Maryland is committed to purchasing environmentally preferable products and services (EPPs). Maryland’s State Finance & Procurement Article §14-410 defines environmentally preferable purchasing as “the procurement or acquisition of goods and services that have a lesser or reduced effect on human health and the environment when compared with competing goods or services that serve the same purpose.”

Accordingly, Bidders/Offerors are strongly encouraged to offer EPPs to fulfill this contract, to the greatest extent practicable.

http://e-stewards.org/ https://sustainableelectronics.org/recyclers https://www.epa.gov/hw/universal-waste#types

On Maryland’s Green Purchasing Reporting Requirements:

The State of Maryland requires from the Contractor, at a minimum, quarterly sales data over the life of this contract per a schedule established and deemed reasonable by both parties, or by request by the Department of General Services.

The report shall include at a minimum:

● Identification of the agencies using the contract

● Total cost of all invoiced purchases for each state agency

● Total cost of all invoiced lighting purchases for each state agency

● Itemized list, invoiced purchases, and total cost by state agency, of all lighting equipment, including an indication of whether the product is an LED luminaire, fixture, retrofit kit, driver or lamp, and whether it is a DesignLights Consortium-qualified or

ENERGY STAR®-certified product.

To facilitate consistent reporting on this contract, the Contractor will be provided with a

VENDOR GREEN SALES REPORT template from the Green Purchasing Committee (GPC), the

Office of State Procurement (OSP) or the Department of General Services (DGS).

This information will enable Maryland State agencies to comply with Md. Code Ann., State

Finance & Procurement, §14–405 and COMAR 21.13.01.14, which require Maryland State agencies to report to the Department of General Services their procurement of environmentally preferable products and services.

Appendix

Utility Incentives - Eligibility Requirements Utility rebate programs incentivize lighting products that are on the ENERGY STAR certification list or

DesignLights Consortium (DLC) Qualified Product List (QPL).

Lighting Controls

Lighting controls (e.g., photocells for outdoor lighting, occupancy sensors, daylight sensors, etc.) can provide an average of 30% savings on top of a luminaire or lamp replacement or retrofit. Each utility has requirements for controls on certain fixtures (see below) with extra incentives for networked controls that set lighting schedules and respond to peak demand opportunities. To be eligible for incentives, lighting controls are required to be installed as follows:

● Daylight controls are required to be installed in spaces with a total of more than 150 watts of general lighting within toplight and/or sidelight daylight zones.

● Daylight controls are not required in spaces in health care facilities where patient care is directly provided, dwelling units and sleeping units.

● Occupancy/vacancy controls are required to be installed in the following areas:

classrooms/lecture/training rooms, Janitorial closets, Restrooms, Conference/meeting/multipurpose rooms, Locker rooms, Storage rooms, Copy/print rooms, Lounges, Warehouses, Employee lunch and break rooms, Private offices, Other spaces 300 sq. ft.

or less that are enclosed by floor-to-ceiling height partitions.

● Lighting controls are not required in the following areas: electrical rooms, areas designated as security or emergency areas that are required to be continuously lit, interior exit stairways, interior exit ramps, and exit passageways, emergency egress lighting that is normally off.

● Space types which fall under the requirements of needing both a daylight and occupancy/vacancy control require a dual daylight and occupancy/vacancy DOS control or a combination of separate daylight and occupancy/vacancy controls (for example, an enclosed office containing windows with luminaires totaling more than 150W within the daylight zone).

For combinations of separate control types, only one control incentive will be paid. Spaces with existing control types are not eligible for control incentives.

● Exterior lighting requires a functioning time clock or photocell to qualify for advanced network control and/or occupancy/vacancy control incentives, but are not eligible for daylight control incentives.
