Goodlight LED lighting achieves hospital cost savings

An increasing number of facilities and energy managers within NHS hospitals are specifying installations of Goodlight LED tubes and lamps.

Following a successful trial in one of its operating theatres, the Royal Surrey County Hospital installed Goodlight LED tubes. Similar retrofit products were also fitted in corridors to replace original lighting that had begun to fail whilst Goodlight floodlights and LED SON replacements were installed in the hospital's car park.

Initial results reinforced the findings of the trials with the hospital reporting excellent performance, dramatically increased reliability and savings in energy costs of up to 80%.

Chelsea's Royal Marsden hospital has benefited from the installation of almost 3000 Goodlight products since 2013. Seven separate locations within the hospital, including treatment, accommodation and teaching areas, have been fitted with 2D lamps, tubes and PL-L lamps with no reported failures.

Successful installations have also been completed at Oldham Hospital and the Royal Gloucester Hospital. The Goodlight LED products fitted include 2D lamps, T8 tubes, floodlights and PL replacement lamps.

Again, the new lighting is supporting various areas within the hospitals including theatres, offices, corridors and car parks. At both sites, immediate and substantial savings have been achieved in both energy and maintenance costs.
