How we helped a local retail business reduce energy costs by 70% while improving customer experience through a comprehensive LED lighting upgrade.

Rising energy costs were putting significant pressure on the operating budget of a local retail business. Their outdated fluorescent lighting system was not only expensive to run but was also creating an unwelcoming atmosphere for customers. Our comprehensive LED upgrade project has transformed both their energy bills and their retail environment.
Our initial survey revealed that the existing fluorescent tubes were consuming over 15kW during peak hours, with frequent failures requiring costly maintenance visits. The color temperature was poor for retail display, and the aging ballasts were creating an annoying flicker that customers found off-putting. We designed a replacement system using high-efficiency LED panels and track lighting specifically chosen for retail applications.
The new LED installation provides superior light quality with a color rendering index (CRI) of 90+, making merchandise appear more vibrant and appealing. Energy consumption has dropped to just 4.5kW for the same coverage area, representing a 70% reduction in electricity costs. The business owner reports that the improved lighting has led to increased customer dwell time and higher sales conversions.
The total project cost will be recovered through energy savings within 18 months, after which the business will enjoy ongoing cost reductions of approximately £3,000 per year. The LED fixtures carry a 5-year warranty and are expected to operate maintenance-free for over 50,000 hours. This project demonstrates how strategic electrical upgrades can deliver both immediate improvements and long-term financial benefits for small businesses.
