​​
THE PROBLEM
The West Vancouver School District SD45 was constantly replacing their fluorescent lighting and energy costs were high. Teachers were even turning off and dimming lights as students complained about the classroom lighting.
Radiance Energy conducted a detailed energy audit and analysis for 20 schools and buildings in their district. Radiance identified lighting and energy improvements and worked diligently with their management in realizing immediate energy savings while delivering the healthiest quality of light for their students and staff.
THE SOLUTION
Radiance Energy replaced high-flicker and high maintenance T8 and T12 tubes with high-efficient, ultra-low flicker LED tubes, downlights and area lighting. Immediately after the install, staff reported seeing a positive response from their students.
PROJECT SUMMARY
