Why an ES&E Lighting Assessment Is the Fastest, Risk-Free and Cost-Effective Path for LED Lighting Upgrades for Manufacturers, Warehouses and Distribution Centers

An ES&E professional lighting assessment is the first step to safer, brighter, and lower-cost operations across your production space, warehouses, offices, and parking lots. ES&E’s No-Cost, No-Obligation can provide you with a significant kWh reduction and utility rebate estimate, a photometric layout, environmental impact analysis, safety and workplace enhancements, and a clear ROI. So you can make a data-driven decision without guesswork.

What an ES&E Lighting Assessment Provides

Benchmark & Measure
We begin by documenting your existing fixtures, light levels, run hours, controls, and maintenance burden. We then compare these benchmarks against recommended practices for industrial interiors and exteriors, giving you a clear starting point.

Model & Simulation
Using photometric calculations, we model your indoor and outdoor spaces to verify target light levels, uniformity, and glare control—before you invest a single dollar in new equipment.

Quantify Savings & Incentives
You’ll see a detailed breakdown of potential energy (kWh) reductions, maintenance savings, and available utility rebates. Our assessment compiles all of this into a turnkey project scope and schedule.

Proof that the savings are real;

• Controls deliver big gains: Industry studies have found average lighting energy savings of 49% from networked lighting controls (even higher with luminaire-level controls).
• Warehouses see fast paybacks: In distribution-center retrofits, lighting upgrades can cut electricity use by 41%, reduce carbon emissions, and achieve payback in as few as 11 months —with utility rebates cutting project costs by up to 50% in some markets.
• Parking lots & garages save even more: When LEDs and controls replace legacy systems in exterior parking lighting, they can achieve 75–90% energy reductions.

Beyond Energy: Safety, Quality & Productivity

Better Visibility Where It Matters
Proper lighting enhances task visibility, improves vehicle/pedestrian awareness, and increases security camera image quality. Uniform illumination helps reduce errors, injuries, eye strain, and fatigue—while boosting worker efficiency.

Improved Security
Research shows that upgraded exterior lighting can significantly reduce nighttime crime in public areas, making it a strong safety investment for large facilities and parking lots.

Enhanced Worker Experience
Modern LED systems reduce glare and flicker, while smart controls allow for task- and shift-based light tuning. This improves employee comfort, throughput, and overall job satisfaction.

Why Choose ES&E?

An ES&E Lighting Assessment goes beyond a quick audit—we deliver a complete package you can take straight to stakeholders for approval:

• Comprehensive Deliverables: kWh and demand reduction estimates, rebate forecasts, ROI, photometrics, environmental impact, and safety enhancements.

• Turnkey or À La Carte: From design and retrofits to controls integration and recycling of old equipment, ES&E provides compliant, end-to-end solutions.

• Risk-Managed Plan: For stakeholder confidence, all recommendations are tied to credible industry references (DOE, DLC, IES).

Typical outcomes you can expect

40–60%+ energy reduction from LED + controls in warehouse/industrial spaces, with additional demand savings from scheduling and occupancy controls options.
60–90% exterior/parking energy reduction when replacing HPS/HID with LED and adaptive controls, alongside improved uniformity and security.
Months, not years, payback when utility incentives and maintenance savings are included—validated in DOE case studies.
