Energy Conservation
Lighting (ECL)
25%-50% Funding
HFSC funding is approved for most lighting applications;
however, funding is allocated to projects that will
substantially decrease energy consumption through the
utilization of energy efficient lighting technology.
Through its strategic partners, HFSC is able to provide
funding for technology that is otherwise difficult to
acquire because of the high price associated with green
lighting technology.
Indoor Lighting Solutions (ECL-Indoor). The
Energy Conservation Lighting Program is designed to
provide financial assistance to healthcare facilities
in need of funding for interior lighting retrofit projects.
Technology utilized for indoor projects include environmentally
friendly LED T-8 lamps and energy efficient T-5 and
T-8 fluorescent lamps. Color temperatures include: Warm
White (2700K), Natural White (4100K), Day White (5800K),
and Cool White (7000K).
Outdoor Lighting Solutions (ECL-Outdoor). The
Energy Conservation Lighting Program is designed to
provide financial assistance to healthcare facilities
in need of funding for exterior lighting retrofit projects.
As a requirement for the program, all lamp technology
must be Energy-Star approved that save energy, reduce
CO2 emissions, and are maintenance free up to 100,000
hours. The Green induction outdoor lights are recommended
for garages, wallpacks, shoeboxes, security, and tunnels.
Fluorescent Lighting Efficiency Boost Solutions
(ECL-Efficiency). Through the implementation of
patented equipment that is designed to lower kWh consumption
in fluorescent lighting systems, the ECL-Efficiency
boost solution provides a unique means to save energy.
Savings may be as great as 15% with nominal foot-candle
loss. Designs are available for parking garages, warehouse
facilities, and for any electrical panel that is specifically
designated for exclusive use in a fluorescent lighting
system.
