Supermarket Makes 70% Energy Saving With Self-Funding LED Retrofit

Sylvania’s HSX G2 retrofit LED luminaires and controls have been installed across 40.000sq ft at leading Italian supermarket, D&P, providing an energy saving of up to 70%. The project has been funded by a five-year Logic Smarter Finance plan, which covers the supply, install and maintenance of the fixtures and remote monitoring system, and will be 90% funded by the energy savings made by the lighting upgrade.

The Project Client: D&P Supermarket

CASE STUDY

Part of the CONAD Group based in the Campania region of Southern Italy, the supermarket provides groceries and staple goods to the area’s local community. Faced with rising energy bills as a result of an aging and inefficient lighting system, the company wanted to move away from traditional lighting and commissioned electrical installer, TECNEL srl, to suggest an alternative, more energy efficient approach with a suitable leasing plan.

Sylvania worked with TECNEL srl to design and install the lighting upgrade which included high performance LED luminaires and controls across the supermarket’s store, offices, warehouse and underground parking. The main energy savings are delivered from the conversion to a single 58W solution, halving the original power consumption. Coupled with lighting controls and a remote monitoring system, the store owner is now able to monitor its energy usage via a dedicated server. They can also remotely fine-tune lighting levels in line with daylight hours and usage.
