The LG Lighting Difference
LG is focused on driving both the profitability and payback of your next retrofit project. We do this by increasing the return on investment with the highest efficiency troffers listed on the DLC. That efficiency pays back both in terms of reduced energy consumption and improved incentive eligibility. Improving payback is also about reducing first install costs – through easier installation. LG is also focused on protecting your project budget and timeline – we deliver products that meet rigorous quality controls and by using a vertically integrated supply chain.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., June 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading LED lighting manufacturer LG Electronics today announced an important milestone in its collaboration with Davenport University. LG is supplying super-efficient fixtures across all of Davenport's campuses across the Great Lakes State as part of a multi-year program to convert existing lighting to energy-efficient LED solutions by 2018. Davenport has already installed more than 600 LG LED fixtures as part of this initiative, including troffers, tubes and cans.
Since beginning the LED lighting conversion in 2014, Davenport University already has improved its energy savings by more than 70,000 kilowatt-hours per year at those campuses which have received the LED conversion. As improvements continue across its campuses, energy savings are estimated to increase to more than 1,459,000 kilowatt-hours per year. This will lead to significant monetary savings in addition to the reductions in greenhouse gas emissions as a result of the energy efficiency conversion.
"As a university, we are always seeking ways to improve upon operating efficiencies while creating a better experience for our students, faculty and staff," said Nathan McCormick, Executive Director of Facility Operations for Davenport University. "We're working closely with our partners – Brightview Lighting for its lighting and project management expertise, and LG Electronics for its world-class LED lighting technologies.
