Posted by on 05/22/2009

Enfield, NH - May 22, 2009 – Leading Edge Design Group, a leading provider of energy optimization services, announced today that they will collaborate with Public Service of New Hampshire to help Manchester-Boston Regional Airport recognize substantial energy savings by reducing the power consumption associated with existing metal halide fixtures in their parking garage onsite.

Manchester-Boston Regional Airport currently operates eighty 400 watt metal halide light fixtures that are used to illuminate the ramp areas of the Helix connecting floors in their parking garage. These fixtures each consume 455 watts of power and operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. After an analysis of the operating characteristics of these fixtures, Leading Edge Design Group proposed the implementation of eighty – 40 watt LED retrofit panels for the existing fixtures with a dusk-to-dawn control system to maximize energy savings as well as life expectancy of the equipment. With a measured life expectancy of 13 years for the new LED fixtures, Manchester-Boston Regional Airport expects to save approximately 305,000 kilowatt hours annually through the significant reduction in energy consumption of the LED replacements.
