Cool savings

LED Eco Lights has supplied products from its Goodlight retrofit lighting range for installation at two sites operated by Hopwells, one of the UK's largest independent frozen food distributors. These are giving annual energy savings in excess of 70,000kWh.

A survey of lighting systems at Hopwells' sites in Burscough, Brownhills and Nottingham identified the need to reduce energy costs. Retrofit LED lighting was considered a solution.

Conventional fluorescent tubes and SON sodium lamps were replaced with lower wattage, LED alternatives from the company's Goodlight range.

A total of 220 Goodlight retrofit lamps were supplied and fitted, including T8 5ft LED tube lights and E40 LED SON lamps. This has resulted in 75% annual savings in both kWh and CO2 emissions which is said to equate to a reduction of 36t from the 220 lamps.
