Case studies
Flip the switch on real jobs
Three retrofits from our files, with the fixture counts, watts and Duke Energy Smart $aver rebates that made the numbers work.
Featured: Parking garage
394 garage lights, one switch
The garage had 394 fixtures with 175W metal halide lamps. We replaced all 394 with 46W LED canopy-style fixtures, which saved 156 watts per fixture.
Through the Duke Energy Smart $aver program, the garage qualified for a $100 rebate on every fixture. The project paid for itself in about 2 years.
