Do you know how much of your annual energy costs are related to lighting? A business energy audit will uncover where your energy usage lies as well as opportunities to reduce energy usage and save money – through a lighting upgrade, for example. Here are some insights from LED lighting services providers on how your business can save through this simple upgrade.
LED lighting services are a popular energy saving choice for commercial and industrial facilities, including airports, warehouses, hospitals, office parks, multifamily buildings and factories. This is because their significant lighting needs translate into significant savings.
LEDs use 85% less energy and last 10 times longer than their halogen counterparts. They operate at much cooler temperatures, so are safe to use in sensitive environments (like laboratories and art galleries) and have a very low fire risk. They are exceptionally bright too, and you can replace a 50W halogen bulb with a 7.5W LED, for example, and a good quality 100W halogen bulb will produce around 1900 lumens, while a 100W LED lightbulb will produce around 11,500 lumens. This means you need fewer lights to light your facility.
While an LED lighting upgrade does carry a cost, the initial higher cost of LED bulbs is mitigated by their exceptionally long lifetime and reduced maintenance and replacement costs. This means they cost far less over the long-term than halogen bulbs. The exact savings can be measured along with projected future savings through a business energy audit from LED lighting services providers.
Using LEDS in Industrial and Commercial Facilities
LEDs are well-suited to the demanding environment of commercial and industrial facilitates because of significant energy savings in large-scale projects, long lifespan and safety features. LEDS are small and highly directional, and come in a wide range of colours to suit your requirements. These bulbs are also very versatile, making them a good choice for your lighting upgrade, as they can be manufactured in almost any size necessary.
They are widely applied in commercial and industrial facilities as well as in infrastructure and homes for security lighting, street lighting, parking garage lighting, modular lighting, task lighting and refrigerated case lighting.
