Lighting retrofit
Lighting retrofit is a process of replacing components in lighting systems with parts that make it use energy more efficiently. Such an upgrade leads to the reduction of system's energy use. Typically, energy savings are significant enough to not only pay for the new equipment, but even produce a return on the investment
The goal of conserving energy is achieved by reducing energy needs and by using the energy more efficiently. As an example, both 100-watt regular incandescent and 23-watt Energy Star qualified compact fluorescent bulbs (CFL) provide minimum light output of 1,600 lumens. The CFL bulbs produce the same light output, using several times less energy
Call us today for our trained and certified service professionals to upgrade your lighting system to an energy efficient one. In fact, Mr. Electric Seattle is the first ENERGY STAR partner among Western Washington electric contractors
We supply all types of energy efficient lighting fixtures if needed
Let's take a look at the example of annual and life cycle costs and savings for two purely fictitious lighting systems:
|
System Quantity of fixtures Wattage Annual Energy consumption (kWh) Maintenance cost Life cycle operating cost (energy + maintenance) Initial cost difference Life cycle savings Net life cycle savings Life cycle energy saved (kWh) Simple payback of additional cost (years) |
Energy Star 50 23 1,679 $95 $3,371 $500 $9,149 $8,649 112,420 0.7 |
Conventional 50 100 7,300 $256 $12,520 $0 $0 $0 0 No |
After 0.7 year you get a simple return on investment, which is about $673/year*
* We used U.S. EPA energy savings calculator for our estimates. Actual energy savings may vary based on use and other factors.
