Qore Energy & Perfect Sense Energy designed a bespoke lighting scheme to retrofit the entire building. Lights were upgraded in the warehouse, under the mezzanine, externally and in corridors and offices around the whole building. 250w HID High Bay lights in the warehouse were replaced with 120w LED ECOP High Bays, using less than half the power whilst improving lux levels significantly. In total, the installation saw a lighting energy saving of 63% for the first year.
The new lighting used significantly less energy than the old fittings, with a year 1 electricity saving of £10,085. The project has a payback period of just over 3 years, and they received a full Carbon Trust grant of £10,000 towards the installation due to our accreditation. The lux levels are greatly improved and the need for costly and time-consuming maintenance is eliminated, with the warehouse high bay LED lighting provided with a 10 year warranty.
Qore Energy provided Operational and Maintenance services to the site after numerous other contractor failings.
Qore Energy & Pioneer Contracting have installed a specifically designed Solar PV system to ensure renewable energies alone can fully provide the power supply to the building heat recovery system.
