Legislation to phase out fluorescent lighting technology is sweeping across the U.S. and Canada, with a majority of bans becoming effective in the next 1-2 years.
U.S. States with Fluorescent Ban Legislation:
Our team at Pacific Energy Concepts (PEC) helps Plant and Facility Management Teams deploy custom-designed LED Retrofits solutions that maximize on energy efficiency and ensure OSHA / IES light level requirements are met. Get in touch with our team to learn about limited-time incentives that you may be eligible for!Â
States are banning fluorescents for 2 primary reasons:
1. Mercury: Fluorescent lights (CFLs), used in many commercial and industrial facilities, contain toxic mercury which helps them emit light more efficiently.
When fluorescent lights break, this mercury is released into the environments, and has been demonstrated to take a significant toll on both humans and the environment.
2. Energy efficiency:
In addition, fluorescents are substantially less energy efficient than modern LED technology — leading to excessive energy waste (and spending!).
Taking on an unplanned lighting project can present a daunting task — but can also present a major opportunity if handled with care and long-term consideration.
Finding the right LED upgrade your facility can reduce energy spending by up to 80%, provide payback periods of under 3 years, slash carbon emissions, and dramatically improve the safety and overall environment for employees!Â
Our team at PEC specializes in partnering with C&I businesses to design and deploy custom LED upgrades that best meet your strategic, operational, and ROI goals.
