CHALLENGE
Sikorsky engineers in Coatesville, PA were seeking an improved lighting system using the fewest total watts and the fewest number of lamps and ballasts.
SOLUTION
Aelux developed a 2xT8 lamp Direct Indirect office fixture solution that substantially reduced glare and increased savings over an alternative 4 lamp fixture under consideration and a fluorescent solution for their industrial area. The Aelux solution provided improved lighting, substantially reduced maintenance costs, and will result in an annual energy reduction of nearly 240,000 kilowatt hours. This reduction provides for a 240 ton annual reduction in carbon emissions, the equivalent of removing 41 cars from the roads or planting more than 5,626 trees.
