Energy Audits
While it’s true that LED products have higher initial costs than conventional lights, over their working lives LEDs offer dramatic savings by greatly reducing electricity consumption, lamp replacement costs and maintenance costs.
Our qualified LED consultants evaluate the energy consumption and maintenance costs of your current lighting configuration and will prepare a comprehensive energy analysis to go over with you:
- The time needed to recoup your investment in LED products (including the cost of installation);
- The cost of waiting to upgrade to LED (unrealized savings);
- Your project’s internal rate of return.

A Savings Example
Fluorescent Fixture / Panel
| 2×4 LED Panel | 2×4 Florescent fixture with no ballast and 4 LED Tubes | 2×4 Florescent with T8 Tubes | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Watts/Hour | 72 | 72 | 184 |
| Watts/Day | 864 | 864 | 2208 |
| Annual Wattage 364 days/year | 314.496 kwh x .10/kwh | 314.496 kwh x .10/kwh | 803.712 kwh x .10/kwh |
| Annual Cost 364 days/year | $31.45/year | $31.45/year | $80.38/year |
The panels have a life expectancy of 50,000 hours or more than 10 years and are guaranteed for 5 years. Given that there are no bulbs or ballasts to ever have to replace, the net cost after only 3 years is ZERO on the power savings alone.
Besides the $$ savings from power, panels have a lumen output of almost 3X, no flicker, a very easy to clean surface from a food safety perspective and are a much simpler to install fixture.
