Overview

Champion Chevrolet, a prominent automotive dealership, was looking to reduce its energy consumption and improve lighting quality across its expansive dealership. The facility relied heavily on older, inefficient lighting fixtures that were costly to maintain and consumed significant amounts of electricity. Faced with rising energy costs, Champion Chevrolet sought an energy-efficient lighting solution to enhance their showroom, service areas, and exterior spaces while reducing operational expenses.

The Challenge

With over 1,181 traditional lighting fixtures spread across the dealership, Champion Chevrolet was incurring high energy costs and experiencing frequent maintenance issues due to the age of their fixtures. The goal was to upgrade to LED lighting, which would deliver better illumination, enhance the customer experience, and significantly lower energy costs.

Solution

  1. Champion Chevrolet decided to undergo a comprehensive lighting retrofit, replacing all 1,181 outdated fixtures with high-efficiency LED lights. The new LEDs provided improved lighting in key areas, including the sales floor, service bays, and exterior parking lots, creating a brighter and more inviting environment for customers and employees alike. The upgrade also reduced the dealership's carbon footprint and aligned with their sustainability goals.

Results

  1. The dealership saw immediate improvements in lighting quality, with brighter and more evenly distributed illumination. This not only enhanced the appearance of vehicles on the sales floor but also improved safety and working conditions in the service areas. The significant reduction in energy consumption led to lower utility bills, allowing Champion Chevrolet to save $35,800 annually. Additionally, the dealership will benefit from reduced maintenance costs due to the long lifespan of LED fixtures.
