One of the fastest growing auto services company in the Northeastern
US was looking for ways to reduce their facility costs. They asked Power Management to assess its retail locations to identify energy efficiency improvements.
Power Management performed LightSavers energy audits at over 90 facilities. The audits identified significant potential energy
savings. The LightSavers team proposed an implementation plan and determined the capital investment required to capture the energy savings.
Each store had an average of fifty T-12 light fixtures with the majority of them being 2 lamp 8- ft. industrial type light fixtures.
They were retrofitted with new high efficiency T-8 ballast, lamps and reflectors.
The annual energy removed from the 92 facilities was 1,187,934 kWh at a savings of $137,954. The effective cost of the project was
$392,240 for a pay back of 2.5 years. The total kWh saved was over 49% annually.
