Why Energy Efficient Lighting Matters

ShareThis
Many companies are going green by reducing their energy use. To achieve this, business owners often invest tens of thousands of dollars in big upgrades, such as triple-glazed glass, better HVAC systems, and solar panels. All of these are great ways to save money on energy costs, but a much more affordable option is switching to energy-efficient lighting.

Protect the Environment
According to a Kaiser Family Foundation survey, eight in 10 Americans believe human activity fuels climate change. This compelled many companies to adopt more environmentally-conscious practices to meet the demands of consumers for greener initiatives. Energy-efficient lighting is one way a company can reduce its energy use.
Reducing the use of energy that comes from fossil fuels helps to fight pollution. If your company is already using solar panels, it may also help your batteries to retain charge for a longer period of time. This is especially important at night and on overcast days.

Lower Operation Costs
Regardless of where consumers and business owners stand on climate change, no one can deny the cost-savings from using less energy. LED lights are 27% more efficient than traditional bulbs, which racks up corresponding savings on your energy bill.
This puts more money into the pockets of business owners or in the pockets of the business itself. Some businesses choose to reinvest this money into further energy upgrades or other aspects of the business.

Cost-Savings for All
When companies reduce operating costs, they may decide to pass this on to their customers. In addition to this, commercial enterprises may lower the cost of energy in their consumers’ homes. Almost every American household has made some adjustments to reduce their carbon footprint.
Commercial businesses, however, have the largest. When commercial enterprises lower their energy consumption, this lowers the demand for energy from the power grid. When there is less demand, prices may reduce accordingly.
