Case Studies Highlight US LED Customer Success Stories
US LED case studies highlight customer success stories and showcase how LED lighting has helped them save energy costs, enhance safety, and improve productivity, while eliminating maintenance:
Hines Hock Plaza (Corporate/Office): US LED utilized its LED lighting solutions and turnkey installation to help this 12-story, 327,160-square-foot office in Durham, North Carolina, pursue a seamless LED lighting upgrade without disrupting daily operations. The lighting retrofit, which included all twelve floors of Hock Plaza, replaced existing 32W T8 fluorescent lamps with US LED’s 11.9W T8 Type B LED lamps, offering superior efficacy and longevity compared to traditional fluorescents. Moreover, the screw-in bulbs were swapped for 6” LED downlights with selectable color temperature (CCT) and wattage, providing greater flexibility and energy savings.
The new LED solutions have improved visibility and created a more uniform lighting environment throughout the building, creating a more comfortable and inviting space for tenants and visitors. The project has an annual reduction of 602.6 tons of CO2 equivalent, making a significant environmental impact.
7-Eleven (Petroleum/Convenience Store): The lighting experts at US LED collaborated with 7-Eleven’s facilities team to upgrade 4,760 locations nationwide to new LED lighting. US LED’s project management team was a single point of contact to oversee the project and schedule crews to replace the interior fluorescent fixtures with its L-Grid®2EH LED recessed troffers. This long-lasting recessed troffer provides glare-free illumination and significantly reduces energy consumption.
The 7-Eleven locations upgraded to LED lighting now have better visibility, feel safer, and more secure due to the increased light levels. The LED lighting is expected to last 200,000 hours and is backed by a Ten-Year Warranty, giving 7-Eleven confidence in keeping employees more productive instead of dealing with maintenance issues. The latest US LED lighting solutions will, on average, reduce energy consumption for each location by 32,750 kWh annually (based on an average 24-hour burn per day). Ultimately, the total lighting energy and maintenance savings for all 7-Eleven locations are $15.3 million annually.
Alcon (Industrial/Manufacturing): Alcon had been considering new LED lighting for its facilities for several years. After much consideration, they concluded that partnering with US LED would fit their lighting needs and financial requirements. US LED developed a solution that could be deployed quickly and did not interrupt operations.
After generating new photometric layouts, the large-scale project would replace 550 T5 high-output fluorescent fixtures with only 300 US LED ExsaBay® LED high bay luminaires. The ExsaBay is a scalable, high bay lighting solution designed specifically for significant mounting heights and offers multiple optical distributions for specific areas like aisles in between racking. Not only did visibility improve in the facility, but the overall number of luminaires decreased, with some aisles only needing three luminaires each.
Alcon enjoyed an immediate financial impact on energy conservation in the warehouse. They’ve reduced their energy usage by over 55 percent, and when combined with their maintenance savings, it amounts to over $66,000 annually. With some areas now reaching 40 footcandles, employees have been able to complete their tasks more effectively and be more productive overall.
