A detailed walkthrough of the facility is performed to document:

• Existing fixture types and quantities

• Lamp wattages and technology (fluorescent, HID, halogen, LED, etc.)

• Mounting heights and ceiling types

• Control systems (switching, occupancy sensors, timers, photocells)

• Operating hours and usage patterns

• Lighting performance issues (dark spots, glare, maintenance problems)

Using collected data, energy models are created to show:

• Projected monthly and annual kWh savings

• Estimated utility cost reductions

• Maintenance savings from longer-life LED systems

• Simple payback and return on investment timelines

Lighting systems and proposed upgrades are reviewed against local utility programs to:

• Identify eligible incentives

• Estimate rebate amounts

• Confirm pre-approval requirements

• Structure projects to maximize funding opportunities

A tailored lighting solution is developed including:

• Product recommendations and layout improvements

• Photometric or performance considerations

• Installation scope and scheduling strategy

• Phased upgrade options if needed
