Silicon Valley Power Lighting Program Success Stories
FIORILLO’S RESTAURANT
AKINS COLLISION CENTER
HOMESTEAD WASH & DRY
Fiorillo’s Restaurant, serving Santa
Clara customers for 50 years, was
an early adopter of LED lighting.
LED lamps are used for all ambient
and accent lighting throughout the
facility’s dining area and their
180-seat private banquet facility,
reducing annual electric costs by
nearly 10%. In addition, maintenance
costs are reduced due to the
increased life of the bulbs.
Akins Collision Center retrofitted the
400-watt metal halide lighting in
its paint booth with 200-watt
induction lamps and drivers. In
doing so, they reduced the paint
booth lighting energy use by 53%,
saving almost 7,500 kWh per year
while improving the overall quality
of light. With utility bill savings and
the rebate received from SVP, the
lighting retrofit will pay for itself in
less than 2 years.
Homestead Wash & Dry reduced its
energy costs by 9% by retrofitting
old, inefficient T12 fixtures with
high-performance T8 lamps and
ballasts. By de-lamping fixtures from
4 lamps to 2 lamps and installing
reflectors, existing light levels were
maintained while reducing energy
and maintenance costs. With the
rebates received through the SVP
lighting rebate program, the cost for
implementing the project was paid
back through utility bill cost savings
in less than a year.
THE PLAZA SUITES
Chief engineer Alan McNeese is utilizing rebates from Silicon Valley Power in
an effort to achieve the hotel’s environmental goals of being mercury-free. All
of the facility’s fluorescent lighting is being replaced with new LED lights. The
hallways and vanities are now illuminated by recessed LED flood lamps and
all linear fluorescent light bulbs are scheduled to be replaced with new LED
T8 replacement lamps. The LED lamps provide brighter and more accurate
rendering of natural colors, last longer, and use less power. The cost savings
from the initial retrofits help pay for each additional lighting retrofit. So far, the
hotel has saved over 7% of its annual electric costs and will save even more
once its LED lightning retrofit conversion has been completed. All together,
the projects have an overall payback of less than one year.
