Parking Garage Lighting Retrofit Reduces Power Consumption by 10,518 KWh!

You may have noticed that over the last two months we have been retrofitting the lighting in the parking garages here at Old Town Plaza. The old and inefficient T12 florescent lamp fixtures (original equipment in the building from more than twenty years ago) were replaced with brand-new Philips F32T8 25W ADV841 XLL Alto T8 florescent lamps.  This represents one of the last projects available for energy efficiency retrofitting here at Old Town Plaza.

These new T8 lamps are not only more energy efficient, but they are also much brighter and put out light in the 4500 kelvin range which is closer to natural sunlight and provides for more optimum lighting conditions for operating a parking garage.  The old T12's were closer to 3500 kelvin and hence more difficult on your eyes when trying to see detail or moving objects.

San Diego Gas and Electric estimates that Old Town Plaza will save 10,518 kilowatt hours annually or about 4-5% of Old Town's total annual power consumption.  All of that just by changing some light bulbs!  Lastly, the lumen output of the new T8's will be roughly 25-50% brighter in some fixtures.  The parking garage is now brighter than it has ever been!
