Energy Efficiency

Our Energy Efficiency business provides products and services that reduce energy costs, delivering strong returns on our customers' energy investments and benefits to the environment.

This includes our exciting new state-of-the-art EfficientLights™ LED lighting fixture for grocery and drug store refrigerated cases. EfficientLights replaces traditional fluorescent lighting in these cases, delivering a strong return on investment by reducing lighting energy use approximately 70 percent. Additionally, replacing traditional fluorescent fixtures with EfficientLights lighting reduces maintenance costs, extends the life of the lights approximately five-fold, and eliminates the disposal of the fluorescent bulbs which contain mercury. We estimate that on average, a grocery store retrofitted with EfficientLights technology reduces its carbon footprint by approximately 40 tons of carbon emissions annually. Importantly, our EfficientLights technology delivers a significantly upgraded quality of light to a refrigerated case, enhancing the consumer's in-store shopping experience.

Our Innovative Electronic Solutions Lighting team leads the industry in their ability to develop LED lighting products for utilities and commercial, industrial, and institutional customers. The acquisition of IES significantly enhances our LED lighting development capabilities to accelerate the expansion of new products, complementing and building on the success of our EfficientLights business. Since 2002, the IES team has engineered dozens of innovative lighting products for many of the largest and fastest growing LED lighting companies in the marketplace. The foundation for IES's success is its expertise and market leading technology in the areas of LED power drivers, light engines, and thermal management solutions. This expertise and technology enables IES to design and manufacture high quality LED lighting products with strong competitive advantages because of their compelling returns on investment. Their product's strong financial returns are driven by the ability of their lighting designs to maximize the energy efficiency savings for a given light output.
