LED gives favourable ROI
When the head of facilities at leading independent provider of IT infrastructure services, Computacenter, was concerned that the lighting system used in the company’s customer fulfilment centre was inefficient and not producing a desired level of light output it became apparent that a light emitting diode (LED) lighting solution would offer the best return on investment.
Future Energy Solutions (FES) took on the 11 week long installation programme to replace 700 luminaires. Completed on time and on budget, the result is that the CFC will have a post upgrade energy use of 334,290kW/h per year – a massive 54.75% improvement.
In addition, the maintenance of the previous infrastructure used to cost Computacenter in the region of £4,000 per year. This will now be negligible for the next five years at least, and a fraction of the existing maintenance costs thereafter.
