NOTE: The LED wattages listed below are equivalent to HID lamps 3 to 4 times their number. Meaning: 100w LED is equivalent to 400w metal halide (HID). Equally important is that the LED lights will not need to be maintained for 10-15 years!
Huntsville City Schools - 4-Elementary School LED Retrofit: Martin Luter King, McDonnell, Chaffee, and Jones Valley
Huntsville, AL
Huntsville City Schools hired Engineering Design Technologies, Huntsville, AL to be the Architect of Record to bid and manage this energy project from the Huntsville City Schools award-winning Energy Master Plan. The project consist of the complete lighting retrofit of four elementary schools. Over 3,200 fixtures received US-made, 100,000-hour retrofit LED products for both the interior and the exterior. The project carries a 10-year labor and material warranty, unheard of in the institutional industry. This means that the HCS maintenance staff do not have to be burdens with a single service call due to lighting for the next 10 year at these schools! HCS utilized both an ADECA LGELP program and the TVA EnergyRight incentive project. This project alone will save HCS over $10,500 per month in electrical costs while bringing higher light levels to the classrooms, which studies have shown higher test scores being the result. The schools are estimated to achieve Return on Investment in just 2.3 years. Lime Green was the elected material supplier under Dunlap Contracting, Inc who managed and installed the project. HCS has continually marketed that the savings from the Energy Master Plan initiatives are being reinvested back into the classroom resources to improve the quality of education for our children. Lime Green is excited to be a part of that effort.

Montgomery Public Schools - Lanier High School Gymnasium
Montgomery, AL
Montgomery Public School was awarded grant funds through ADECA for an energy efficiency project to help their schools. The Lanier High School gymnasium was selected as the location to utilize those funds to help save money and put additional resources back into the students. The entire gym facility was selected for retrofit LED products. The Engineer of Record provided a bid specification raising the minimum quality requirements of the project to include being manufactured in the US, minimum 10-year warranty, and a minimum of 100,000 expected life. Lime Green was the successful material supplier on bid-day for the 146 retrofit kits. This project will save MPS about $14,000 per year in utility and maintenance costs! The Return on Investment is on schedule to take place in 24 months while the Cost of Ownership savings is nearly $175,000 in 15 years. Not bad for only a single building in their fleet of facilities.

Watkins Oil - Jiffy Fuel Station
Athens, AL
The best kind of business is REPEAT BUSINESS! Watkins Oil has returned to Lime Green to retrofit another one of their fuel stations with US-made LED products. Their reasoning is simple: our 10-year labor and material warranty is the best around and our products provide more light per dollar spent. This fuel canopy originally had 20 HPS fixtures, but with Lime Green LED products, that quantity was reduced to 12. By doing so, the Return on Investment is less than one year! This project is saving the owner about $200 per month in utility and maintenance, which equates to a 15-year Cost of Ownership Savings of over $36,000. Not bad for 12 lights, right!?!

Windham Chevrolet
Demopolis, AL
Windham Chevrolet is not unlike 1,000's of other small family dealerships across America. In order to market and sell their product, they need the lot lit up at night. But with more light comes more expenses. Winham looked to Gaddy Electric to help solve the issue of adding more vehicles to the lot, thus adding more area to be lit at night. Lime Green worked with Gaddy Electric to design a layout that, in conjunction with retrofitting the existing light fixtures with US-made LED, the new poles could be combined into the project without dramatically increasing the initial investment. This project is a hit! The existing lights were improved, the LED light is immensely cleaner to see the vehicles, the light output is now increased, and the savings are almost $150 per month!

Clearview Cancer Institute
Huntsville, AL
The excellent physicians of CCI are providing incredible service to their community, but their building has not been keeping up. Before we started working with property managers, Crunkleton & Associates with executing an Energy Master Plan, the facility carried an EnergyStar score of 2 out of a possible score of 100. One of the lowest hanging fruits was to retrofit the common area lighting in the Atrium and the exterior lighting of the building and parking lot. Upon Lime Green winning the bid, over 200 fixtures were retrofit with US-made LED products carrying a 10-year labor and material warranty. This project is saving CCI over $2,400 per month in utility and maintenance costs. Between the TVA EnergyRight incentive and the operational tax savings, the Return on Investment will be less than 17 months! This project will save CCI over $334,000 in the next 15 years by changing these lights alone. CCI has now commenced with other initiatives in the Energy Master Plan with the help of our local Association of Energy Engineers and their HVAC service contractor.

Premier Storage AC LED Fixtures
Huntsville, AL
This project is the first of its kind in Huntsville and possibly Alabama. AC LED's are the future of LED technology utilizing alternating current to directly power the LED chips. Lime Green, in conjunction with HiLumz USA, is assisting with product development of this technology nationally. These LED lights replaced the dilapidated 150 watt High-pressure Sodium wallpacks that most storage facilities possess. The new AC-LED lights consume only 25 watts boasting an 87% reduction in energy. The lumen output more than doubled the light output making it safer for the facility and easier for the patrons to see. The AC LED's carry the same White Glove, 10-year warranty, as do our other projects eliminating the maintenance burden to Premier Management for 10 years! The 58 light fixtures save over 38,800 kWh per month for a projected monthly energy savings of $207! The Energy Analysis projects a 15-year Cost of Ownership savings including energy and maintenance of over $70,000! And even with the expense of new fixture housings, the Return on Investment is only 27 months!

First Baptist Church - Pastor's Office and Chapel
Huntsville, AL
First Baptist Church in downtown Huntsville is a very forward-thinking House of God as well as forward-thinking business that realizes that their energy and maintenance savings translates to stewardship. Lime Green, in conjunction with the Trustees have initiated an Energy Master Plan to tackle the energy and maintenance expenses of the facilities. And as they were hiring a new pastor, they needed to update his new office with a small renovation. They were not going to install fluorescent fixtures just to lose money, so they looked to Lime Green to design, provide and install new office fixtures. Then in another project, their maintenance costs of their Chapel were extremely expensive due to the difficulty of the height of the room and the frequency of the old halogen lamps burning out. Lime Green won the bid to replace the eighteen 500w halogens with US-made dimmable LED retrofit kits. By decreasing their facility costs, First Baptist can use their tithes more efficiently toward their internal and external missions.

United States Military Academy Exterior LED Retrofit Westpoint, NY
Lime Green had the opportunity to test several retrofit kits in several locations at the USMA that ultimately led to a purchase order of LED retrofit kits. We started with testing of the street lights, post-top lamps, and the recessed fixtures in the tunnel. The maintenance costs and road closings for the Public Works Dept were a nightmare in the tunnel, so right now 45 Retrofit LED lamps of 100w are successfully representing our product offerings. What interested the USMA the most was the idea that this LED system could be used to retrofit their entire campus. Once we train their personnel how to retrofit, (in less than 10 minutes per fixture), they could keep units on the shelf waiting for the next existing campus light to fail. Another successful venture was the ability of Lime Green to match the heritage of historic gas lanterns with retrofit LED's while keeping the same gas flame light hue. We proved this onsite while being less than a third of the competition's costs to change the fixture to LED! We look forward to our next order of LED's so that we can serve those who are training to serve our Nation.

Jacksonville Zoo Solar LED Parking Lot Lighting Jacksonville, FL
Before the time of this project, Lime Green had solar and LED experience separately. Then we were asked to marry these technologies to illuminate a parking lot that has zero light prior. Designed, fabricated, and installed to not only meet Florida's high wind requirements, these systems provide 100w light from dusk-to-dawn with 4 days of battery autonomy. Our systems were custom-designed to match existing foreign systems that were installed previously. Our first round of three light poles were installed in 2011. We were asked back in 2013 to install two more. Repeat business is the best gauge of a successful relationship.

Campus Collections Shirt Shop Low-Bay LED Retrofit Northport, AL
Lime Green was brought to this shirt-printing shop to overcome a serious issue as their existing low-bay lights were fading the shirts with UV light. Our 48w retrofit LED lights mounted in the acrylic fixture perfectly and brightened both the merchandise and the ceiling. This project was expedited in a two week period as this shop had to be prepared to print the 2012 BCS Championship shirts should BAMA beats LSU! Right after our win, the Owner texted me to thank us for the lights as "This years printing all night long was brighter on both the merchandise and the ceiling, making it an improved labor of love." Roll Tide!

University of Alabama Parking Garage LED Retrofit Tuscaloosa, AL
Lime Green was invited to commence retrofit testing of 48w LED lamps in existing parking garage fixtures. This project is a testament of how important it is to analyze the Return on Investment with regard to maintenance. The Electrical Division could not break out their maintenance costs of their stack of work orders. While the university pays only $0.03 per kw-hour for electricity, and wins National Titles for additional revenue, they weren't much concerned about saving on maintenance costs. To date, these garages have not been retrofitted. Our LED retrofit kits were the only US-made lights tested, were double the warranty period, and were less than 1/2 the cost of the competition. We look forward to the day we can relamp these garages.

University of Alabama Walk of Champions Lamppost LED Retrofit Tuscaloosa, AL
There are over 15,000 lamp post lights on the campus with two men dedicated full time to maintaining these lights. Our retrofit LED units were able replicate exactly the existing 400w bulb with a 100w LED. After the retrofit test was installed, the Electrical Division leader went to inspect our light that night. In 20 minutes of searching, he could not find which post we had chosen. They finally found our by turning the circuit off and then back on. Our LED relights immediately, while the other reheat. He happened to be parked under our LED. Roll Tide! Our LED retrofit kits were the only solution the University had seen to date without complete fixture replacement. A fixture replacement of these lights would be less than 1/3 the cost of other options.
