Discover how Fluke Corporation upgraded its lighting system to LLLC, securing a utility incentive and significantly reducing energy consumption, while earning recognition from the U.S. Department of Energy for its dedication to sustainability.
See how a former high-tech campus in Vancouver, Washington, was transformed into the Vancouver Innovation Center, with an upgraded lighting system to enhance energy efficiency, tenant flexibility, and sustainability.
After learning about their unparalleled flexibility, control, and energy savings, laser manufacturing facility Novanta updated their facility to Luminaire Level Lighting Controls (LLLC). In addition to being recognized as a leader for energy efficiency, Novanta anticipates the project will result in a significant 224,996 in annual kWh savings.
PNW Energy Group determined Luminaire Level Lighting Controls (LLLC) would be the perfect solution for a client’s darkened manufacturing plant. With brighter lights, automated controls, a generous incentive that covered 86% of the capital cost, and deep energy savings, LLLC exceeded everyone's expectations.
When it comes to lighting retrofits for large multi-space commercial buildings, relationships aren’t just important between operating systems, but also between the people writing the specifications, doing the implementation, and performing the maintenance—and their local utility. It’s why Seattle City Light stepped up to help the Associated General Contractors of Washington’s (AGCW) facilities manager and electrical contractor with their LLLC project.
Crane Aerospace and Electronics is an aerospace components manufacturer in Lynnwood, Wash. After receiving thermal comfort complaints in the summer and winter from occupants of a second-story office building, Crane committed to replacing the inoperable single-pane windows throughout the building with energy-efficient secondary windows.
Built in 1975, Hurley Development’s 915 Broadway office building in downtown Vancouver, Wash., features floor-to-ceiling windows in every perimeter office—6,000 sq. ft. of windows in total. While all of these single-pane windows let in a vast amount of natural light, they also brought in far too much heat in summer, and too much cold air in winter. This thermal leakage not only led to tenant comfort complaints, it also inflated energy costs by forcing the aging HVAC equipment to strain to maintain indoor temperatures.
When Urban Renaissance Group purchased Tower 333, a 20-story office building in Bellevue, Wash., they knew the aging and inefficient water-booster system needed to be replaced. The original system consisted of three 20-horsepower constant-speed booster pumps operated in a staged sequence, bringing on successive pumps as demand changed. With a commitment to occupant comfort and maintaining the building's energy efficiency certifications, the company knew they had to find a replacement for the aging water-booster system that would save energy and improve performance.
Enumclaw School District needed a lighting solution for a variety of needs. They worked with their utility to get incentives for installing LLLCs.
Bellwether Housing is the largest nonprofit affordable housing provider in Seattle, managing 2,100 units across the city in buildings that range from new construction to century-old apartments.
