To assist companies in reducing their carbon footprint and the cost of energy for lighting, Syntegra Consulting is offering a new Free LED Lighting Feasibility Survey for commercial properties. The survey assesses the potential for installing LED lamps by calculating the building's current lighting electricity consumption and recommending LED options to reduce electricity costs and carbon emissions. The recommendations given take into account lighting design, investment costs and payback period.
LED is currently the light source that offers the best payback, which can be as short as two and a half years, and in some cases this can result in an electricity cost saving of 85%. Thanks to huge improvements in the quality and colouring of LEDs it is now also possible to achieve a similar lighting effect that can be achieved with conventional lamp types, but with significant energy and cost saving benefits. This includes a reduction in maintenance costs that are factored in when calculating the real savings.
Syntegra Consulting's free on-site survey catalogues every existing light fitting and its current output. The information is collated and the current electricity consumption costs are calculated. A proposal is then submitted recommending new lamps or fittings, together with detailed investment and installation costs, as well as the payback period. The cost of such projects can often be financed using interest free loans from the Carbon Trust. Syntegra Consulting can apply on a client's behalf and projects can be funded from the ongoing savings. Once the payback period is achieved, there can be continued savings for the next 5 - 10 years.
Syntegra Consulting is an independent energy consultancy and can source products from all the major European LED lighting manufacturers. The company will specify the optimum light sources for its clients for any specific project. For more information on the Free LED Feasibility Survey,contact Syntegra Consulting Ltd today.
