A supplier to the leisure industry in Derbyshire recently undertook a significant project to modernise its lighting system with the help of CJ Timms Electrical Services. Aiming to enhance energy efficiency, reduce costs, and improve lighting quality across its premises, the client opted into a comprehensive LED lighting upgrade.
The Benefits of LEDs to the Client
The primary objectives of this project were to reduce energy consumption, lower maintenance costs, improve lighting quality, and support sustainability goals. LEDs were the ideal solution to achieve these objectives as they:
- Consume 75% less energy compared to traditional lighting, resulting in substantial energy savings.
- Will lead to decreased maintenance costs due to the longer lifespan of LED lights.
- Provide brighter, more uniform lighting to enhance visibility and safety, resulting in a generally better working environment.
- Help to reduce carbon emissions, thus contributing to broader environmental sustainability efforts.
The Project
We began with a thorough site assessment to evaluate the current lighting system and identify areas with high energy consumption and improvement opportunities. Based on this assessment, a customised lighting plan was developed. This plan tailored the selection of LED fixtures and controls to meet the specific needs of different facility areas, ensuring maximum efficiency and performance.
Our team of certified professionals have started to install the LED lighting fixtures throughout the building at convenient times to minimise disruptions and downtime for the client. The project also included ongoing support and monitoring to guarantee optimal performance, backed by a three-year on-site and seven-year overall warranty.
Predicted Savings
The transition to LED lighting is projected to yield significant benefits:
- Energy Savings: The facility expects a substantial decrease in annual energy consumption, leading to a projected annual savings on electricity bills of over £5,000.
- Cost Savings: With a return on investment (ROI) ranging from 77% to 86% for various facility areas, the payback period is expected to be well within a year for most installations.
- Environmental Impact: By adopting energy-efficient lighting, the facility will significantly reduce its carbon footprint, aligning with its sustainability objectives.
The Result
Now equipped with brighter and more efficient lighting, our client can benefit from significant cost savings and a reduced carbon footprint, in line with its long-term sustainability goals. We’re proud to have helped the client achieve a greener future, delivering a solution that exceeds the client’s expectations.
