Complete building lighting retro-fit
Prolume was pleased to be awarded the contract for a significant lighting upgrade at Victoria Garden Apartments.
The lighting upgrade project commenced in August 2016. The first stage included a downlight lighting upgrade throughout the common areas of Victoria Garden Apartments. It saw the existing 235, 50 watt outdated halogen downlights replaced with Prolume’s 10w modern looking energy efficient downlights. Not only were energy savings made, but light output and appearance within the common areas was improved. The next stage saw the existing 250, twin T8 fluorescent light fittings throughout the carpark replaced by Prolume’s Australian made and patented batten lights. These lights sit directly over the existing footprints and require minimal drilling during the installation. The Prolume installation did not require any remedial paintwork or extending of conduits.
Results
Prior to works, the building’s total annual lighting costs were $70,238 including maintenance. After Prolumes’ works, lighting costs were reduced to approximately $10,744, a saving of $59,494 which is a 85% reduction overall.
- $594,940 savings over 10 years
- 2,577,450 kWh of energy savings over 10 years
