Already coping with a nearly 20 percent increase in energy rates over the past year, the company was facing an additional 10-15 percent year-over-year increase down the road. In an effort to overcome the rising cost of electricity and improve overall operational efficiency, MMD has recently begun to install led linear high bay light high-efficiency LED lighting fixtures at both its new and existing facilities. Not only has the effort paid off by cutting energy consumption and cost with an expected ROI of two years but it has also dramatically improved lighting efficacy and safety while reducing maintenance demands and expenses throughout the company.
New Facility Demands New Approach to Lighting With construction of its new 3,000 square meter (32,000 square foot) Portsmouth cold storage facility underway, MMD began looking at a variety of lighting solutions. Lighting needs alone accounted for up to 15 percent of the company’s total electrical consumption, and rates had already jumped considerably over the past year. Looking to minimize consumption and costs, the company compared Dialight LEDs against some other LED products, as well as induction and fluorescent options, for its new chill store.
Working with Elite Renewables, a Dialight authorized distributor and installation contractor, a trial of the Dialight product ultimately demonstrated superior light output with the High Bay fixtures delivering up to 320 lux on the floor, even at a ceiling mounting height of led high bay light. MMD had found its high-efficiency lighting solution for the new cold storage facility. Elite Renewables then went to work providing complete lighting schematics with layouts and measurements to optimize light efficacy.
