Upgrading your facility’s lighting to LED can offer a number of savings opportunities for your business, from energy costs of the lighting to project savings using government and/or utility incentives.
Energy Savings
The top commercial LED lights for an office or warehouse use up to 75% less energy than traditional lamps, which quickly repays the money invested in new LEDs. This could result in thousands of dollars saved on lighting your office or warehouse over the life of the lamps or fixtures. Additionally, LED lights use less energy producing heat, allowing them to reduce the stress on your HVAC system, particularly in the summer.
Lower Maintenance Costs
LED lights can last about 35-50 times longer than traditional lamps, generally lasting 50,000-100,000 hours. Their longer lifespan helps save money by reducing the frequency of lamp replacement, along with its labor and equipment costs. Furthermore, because LEDs are more efficient and brighter while also better at distributing light, fewer fixtures may be required to light your commercial or warehouse space.
Energy Rebates
The federal government and several local municipalities offer incentives and rebates for upgrading to LED lighting, which help cover some of the cost of installing the new lighting. Imperial Lighting works to customize projects that allow you to claim your maximum commercial LED incentives, and assists in the process and paperwork required to obtain them. To find policies and potential incentives near you, visit the Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency website.
Utility Incentives
In order to meet energy saving goals, utility companies such as ComEd frequently offer financial incentives to upgrade and/or retrofit existing lighting to energy-saving LEDs. These savings can often cover up to 40% of the total project cost. Imperial Lighting is certified to provide support for our customers take full advantage of local utility incentives.
Our process begins with a free lighting audit that meets utility specifications before we help with completing the required paperwork to process the incentives, along with facilitating utility site inspections as needed.
