  • Evaluating Alternative Lighting Options for Duke Athletics
    Evaluating LED Lighting Options for Duke Athletics By Andrew Guerra, Master of Environmental Management Candidate, 2015 Dr. Lincoln Pratson, Adviser Casey Collins, Engineering Adviser April 24, 2015 Masters project submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Environmental Management degree in the Nicholas School of the Environment of Duke University Executive Summary Evaluating LED Lighting Options for Duke Athletics By Andrew Guerra April 24, 2015 Duke Athletics spends $222,000 for 3,000MWh1 of electricity annually in 20 athletic venues. As a means to reduce energy costs, Duke Athletics could retrofit the lamps in all 20 venues from HID2 to LED3 for a projected annual cost of $105,000 for 1,400MWH of electricity – the initial capital to do this would be approximately $2MM. Duke Athletics is not advised to retrofit all venues, but instead evaluate the NPV4 associated with the entire portfolio along three warranty periods: 10, 18, and 25 years to negotiate the most optimal warranty with lighting vendors. After finalizing a warranty period, examining the NPV/kWh savingd will help Duke Athletics make a priority list of individual venues. LED and HID The 20 athletic venues in this analysis use HID as a means of primary lighting. This is a legacy technology that is able to produce intense amount of light at a high wattage, which correlates to high costs. LED lamps are emerging as alternatives by emitting high intensity light at reduced wattages. Unlike HID lamps, LED lamps can quickly cycle on/off, and instantly produce optimal light at full brightness. Savings in Wattage An LED lamp is capable of high efficacy, emitting the same lighting density as an HID at a reduced wattage.

  • A Strategic Plan for Duke Athletics
    UNRIVALED AMBITION: A STRATEGIC PLAN FOR DUKE ATHLETICS April 26, 2008 TABLE OF CONTENTS Executive Summary 3 Priorities 6 Introduction 8 Finances and Fund Raising 16 Facilities 18 Health, Physical Education, and Recreation 23 Student-Athlete Welfare 27 Football 30 Basketball 32 Olympic Sports 33 Conclusion 37 Appendix: Mission Statement for Athletics 38 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The last ten years have been arguably the most successful in the history of the Duke University Department of Athletics on many fronts: more NCAA and ACC championships than in any previous decade, continued high graduation rates and academic honors, and an unprecedented period of facility improvement and expansion. This level of success has been widely recognized. The university has, for example, finished first among NCAA Division I institutions in the National Collegiate Scouting Association Power Rankings in every year since this ranking—based on a combination of academic and athletic achievement—was initiated. No Division I institution more seamlessly, successfully, and consistently combines athletic and academic excellence. There is much to be proud of, but little room for complacency. The enterprise in which we are engaged is competitive and the rewards of success in that competition are considerable. However successful we have been, we can never assume that we have reached some plateau of excellence where we can bask in the glow of our triumphs. Our competitors never rest; the landscape of college athletics is constantly changing and, far from resting on our laurels, we must remain agile and flexible enough to respond to change. We find ourselves, then, as we look forward, in the position of maintaining what has been successful while always being vigilant to ways to enhance that success.
