Problem
The Property Management team at Pacifica Tower (503 W 16th Avenue) determined the need for a lighting upgrade in their underground parking lot in order to improve light output & brightness, reduce maintenance, and generate energy cost-savings through a sustainable solution enabled by LED lighting.
Commercial Lighting was ultimately selected to improve the large underground parkade with a newly designed lighting solution.
Solution
Our team replaced 390 70W high-pressure sodium canopy fixtures with 40W LED canopy lights, providing a more evenly-lit and brighter space.
The approximate energy savings from this conversion amount to 198,150 kWh/year and $23,778 in annual savings, while also eliminating maintenance costs for the next 5-10 years.
We were also able to work with BC Hydro to obtain a $44,000 rebate for our customer.
Exactly how much does 198,150 kWH/year in energy savings amount to? Check out the infographic below for greenhouse gas equivalencies!
