Lighting Retrofits
High Bay Lighting
Most highbay lighting should either be T8, T5HO or LED. Retrofits are going to give you maximum efficiency, superior color rendering, and long lamp/ballast life. They are perfect for use in warehouses, factories, arenas, studios, gyms, supermarkets, and beyond.
Call Progressive Energy Solutions to learn more about retroifitting your highbay lighting or if you have a new establishment that needs top-of-the line, cost-effictive high efficiency lighting.
Delamping
Many flourescent lights in the work place are considered brighter than they need to be by the IES illumination standard. This, of course, is not efficient and could be contributing to a higher energy bill.
The process of delamping brings down the over-all brightness of a room to where it should be. In some cases, the brightness needs to be raised, as lack of brightness can be a safety concern.
Progressive Energy Solutions will test the luminocity of your rooms for you and determine what steps need to be taken for optimal efficiency and safety.
12 to T8 Lighting
T12 and T8 refer to the diameter of lamp tubes. Thus, a T8 lamp has a diameter of eight eighths of an inch, or simply 1 inch. Typically, a narrower lamp is more energy-efficient. Since the T12 is twelve eighths of an inch, or 1.5 inches in diameter, it is a less energy-efficient lighting mechanism than the T8. T8 lamps are available a variety of lengths, and they also come in either straight or U-shaped lamps.
Retrofitting from T12 to T8 is cost effective and easy to do, and if you can't afford to transition all your lights at once, just replace old bulbs as they burn out.

Commercial Lighting
Improving your lighting systems is one of the first steps the EPA recommends to increase the efficiency of your buildings—whether you are retrofitting existing or designing new buildings. Lighting uses about 18 percent of the electricity generated in the U.S., and another 4 to 5 percent goes to remove the waste heat generated by those lights.
With proper design, lighting energy usage in most buildings can be cut at least in half while maintaining or improving lighting quality. A Lighting Retrofit is an investment not only in reducing electricity consumption but also in improving the way a building supports its occupants.
