BJ Planning LED Retrofit in 68 Stores

As reported on Environmental Leader website:

BJ's Wholesale Club, a food warehouse club, will install a new LED refrigerated case lighting system in 68 of its locations this year, according to a company press release.

The new system was designed as the result of a partnership between BJ’s and International Light Technologies (ILT) to develop a new LED  lighting system ideally suited to BJ’s environment to replace the company’s existing fluorescent fixtures with more environmentally-friendly and cost-effective solutions. The LED lighting system uses green technology to reduce energy consumption and maintenance requirements while avoiding the hazardous waste issues associated with fluorescent lighting.

The new LED Lighting system will help reduce BJ’s carbon footprint while avoiding mercury disposal issues. The new LED lights are also more durable than the previous fluorescent bulbs and less likely to break during installation.


Fresh & Easy Neighborhood Markets recently undertook a similar LED lighting retrofit of its refrigerated case systems, while PowerSecure International announced two new products specifically designed at that niche.

LED Lighting Retrofits
 
A good practice for businesses looking to reduce energy expenses is to consider an LED lighting retrofit. Lighting retrofits replace lighting with newer technology such as LED linear lighting to save on energy costs and maintenance costs. Many building experts recommend a lighting retrofit as the first step to reducing energy costs. Redbird LED is an Atlanta based manufacturer and designer of Premium LED lights at value price points.
