Problem
- Lighting contributed approximately 20% of the site’s electrical consumption
- The site was dark, with the old lighting being unreliable and expensive to operate
Solution
- Tyree identified the opportunity to improve working conditions for their employees while reducing operating costs and carbon footprint
- Over 2 stages, the existing Metal Halide High Bays and Flood Lights were replaced with Induction technology:
- 257 x 150W Induction High Bay Lights (Replacing 400W Units)
- 12 x 150W Induction Flood Lights
- 25 x 80W Induction Flood Lights
Results
- By utilising the NSW IPART ESC Funding, the site had a very short payback for a significant improvement on site.
- Electricity costs reduced by approximately 10%
- Project saved Tyree Industries over $62,000 + GST per annum
- NSW IPART ESC’s of $105,992 + GST partially funded the project
- Tyree only contributed $17,820 + GST
- Simple project payback of less than 4 months
