Old lighting costs more than you think

Know exactly what you could save

An energy efficiency review calculates your current lighting consumption and compares it to what modern alternatives would use. The result is a clear picture: what you're spending now, what you could be spending, and how long it takes for the upgrade to pay for itself.
No guessing. Actual numbers for your specific situation.

  • Consumption analysis
    Energy use based on fixture types and operating hours
  • Efficiency benchmarking
    Comparison to modern LED alternatives
  • Savings projections
    Calculated reductions in energy use, cost, and carbon

Where savings come from

  • Lamp Technology

    • Fluorescent tubes to LED replacements
    • Halogen spotlights to LED alternatives
    • Older LED to newer, more efficient LED
    • Metal halide to LED in industrial settings

  • Control Systems

    • Manual switching to occupancy sensors
    • Fixed output to daylight-responsive dimming
    • Time scheduling for unoccupied periods
    • Zone control for flexible operation

  • Design Efficiency

    • Over-lit areas that could be reduced
    • Task lighting replacing excessive ambient lighting
    • Zoning improvements for better flexibility
    • Lamp consolidation where too many fittings exist

Who benefits from an efficiency review

  • Commercial Property Owners

    Looking to reduce operating costs

  • Businesses

    With sustainability commitments or carbon reporting requirements

  • Facilities Managers

    Targeting energy reduction goals

  • Landlords

    Preparing properties for EPC requirements

  • Hotels & Hospitality

    Where lights run many hours daily

  • Anyone

    Still running fluorescent, halogen, or older lighting

What savings look like

Most LED upgrades pay for themselves within 2-4 years through energy savings alone. After that, every year is pure savings.

  • Fluorescent to LED

    40-60%

    Typical energy reduction

  • Halogen to LED

    80-90%

    Typical energy reduction

  • Occupancy sensors

    20-40%

    Additional reduction

  • Daylight dimming

    10-30%

    Additional reduction
  • Product recommendations
    Specific replacement products that fit your application
  • Payback calculations

How it works

The result

Lighting typically accounts for 15-25% of a building's electricity use. Efficiency improvements deliver lower operating costs from day one, reduced carbon footprint, better compliance with tightening energy regulations, often improved light quality as a side benefit, and longer intervals between maintenance.
The numbers don't lie. Once you see the payback calculation, the decision usually makes itself.

FAQs

How much does an energy efficiency review cost?

For qualifying commercial projects, we provide initial assessments at no charge. Detailed audits for larger properties are priced based on scope. We'll confirm costs after understanding your situation.

I already have LED lighting — is there still potential for savings?

Possibly. Early LED technology (5+ years old) is often significantly less efficient than current products. Controls and sensors can also add savings regardless of lamp type.

Do you handle the actual upgrade work?

We supply products and can coordinate with electricians for installation. For larger projects, we provide project management to ensure smooth delivery.

What about the disruption of replacing fittings?

Many LED upgrades use retrofit lamps that fit existing fixtures, minimising disruption. Where new fittings are needed, we help plan the work to reduce impact on building operations.
