Project overview
LED Lighting Supply was approached by Healthy Living Technology to upgrade their fixtures to energy-efficient LED parking lot fixtures. The metal halide fixtures were energy inefficient and impacted energy costs for the business. By switching some of their fixtures over to LED lighting, we were able to provide them with a smarter, money-saving upgrade. Doing so created a brighter space and a 78% increase in energy savings, as well as a 29.5-year increase in life expectancy based on the typical light usage at this parking lot.
Our approach and lighting plan
Once Healthy Living Technology contacted us, we began getting the information to start a lighting plan and select the best fixture. They let us know the type of fixtures they had and the number of fixtures we were replacing. They had 400-Watt Metal Halide fixtures and, with all of this information in mind, we chose the MLLG-LED-SBHO2-100-50
After speaking with Healthy Living Technology we took the information needed to start a lighting plan. The lighting plan is able to provide visual information and can show how the lights will work once they replace the metal halide fixtures.
Project Data
Results
The upgrade from metal halides to LEDs not only increased energy savings by 78% for this parking lot, but it also increased life expectancy by up to 29.5 years. LED fixtures are a cost-effective upgrade due to the fact they produce more lumens per watt and this results in a 78% decrease in energy consumption for similar if not better lighting. Additionally, the new and improved lighting has provided increased safety on the property for employees and visitors.
